Very cool.

dude. A modded gt racing a stock srt4 with 3 ppl in it. Seems a bit unfair.

stock srt-4s are quick, but im with dannyb...put 3 ppl in the gt and see what happens

73coupe99v6 · 07-15-2005, 05:50 PM

i dont think the gt was "stock". Looks like he had some stuff done to his exhuast.

*venom* · 07-15-2005, 06:02 PM

It was a stock automatic, only mods were a cut out airbox and removed factory catback.

silvergt · 07-15-2005, 07:01 PM

i dont knock srt4's anymore, bad experience. then again the one i raced was shooting flames out the back every time he shifted and the turbo sounded louder than stock so i think it was little more modified than my gt. it was fast as hell.... but regardless, id still rather be in a mustang than a neon.

MineralGT · 07-15-2005, 07:03 PM

I think the SRT-4 is a badass car for the price...If I was a young kid who wanted something to haul ass off the lot, than the SRT is not a bad decision, I almost bought one then saw my Stang and couldn't do it.

It was stock and an auto!! 3 ppl doesnt make that much of a difference! Did you watch the same vid? He had him BEAT!! If he did/didnt have 3 ppl in the neon he still would have lost, just not as bad; maybe. Not a fan of neons at all! jus my opinion

dannyb785 · 07-15-2005, 10:06 PM

Doesnt make a difference???

Cars that have convertible version almost always lose 0-60 times and 1/4 mile times by a few tenths. And thats only added 100-150lbs. 3 ppl are atleast 300 extra lbs. And since the 0-60/quarter mile specs of gt vs srt4 are nearly the same stock, a gt w/ modified exhuast vs a bone stock srt4 w/ 3 ppl in it is slightly unfair

just my $0.02

StangGT804 · 07-15-2005, 10:13 PM

keyword "slighty", but anyway. a good vid tho

silvergt · 07-15-2005, 11:32 PM

3 people in the srt4, 2 people in the gt. thats only (im guessing) around 180 pounds difference and the gt probably weighs more to begin with so its 240hp against 260hp with around the same weight. it makes sense how that race turned out, the mustang has more hp stock and they were both stock or at least claimed to be.

BeatTheBrat94 · 07-16-2005, 12:34 AM

here's my take...the 3 people in the SRT-4 makes up for the weigh difference between a 4 cylinder and a V8.... A turbo'd 4cyl vs a N/A V8...hmmm.... Not too hard to figure out what's gonna kick more arse on that one.... I'm thinkin' the GT will always win on a race of stock vs stock.

79Fox · 07-16-2005, 10:56 AM

the srt-4 would be better if it wasnt front wheel drive. it would be better rear wheel or all wheel.

neons are a piece of **** nuff said

Stang101 · 07-16-2005, 02:54 PM

Im with him. SRT-4 arent a bad car. Granted id take a gt over one anyday but for being a neon its not a bad car. Alot quicker then other things out on the market.

As of right now the SRT-4 is the best performing sport compact out. They are infinatly better than a Cavalier, Civic, Sentra, etc.

WaterDR · 07-16-2005, 04:25 PM

I would say that was a pretty even race. Translated into seconds, that GT was probaly only faster to a 100 miles per hour by about .1 seconds. Clearly not a major victory. The GT got the SRT off the line and the SRT just could not make up the lost ground.

MEATWAD_00GT · 07-16-2005, 05:34 PM

It said also 3 people.... meaning the GT had 3 people too.

Yeah but if your going AWD your adding more weight, thus slowing the car down a bit more.

You would need a more powerful engine (Turboed V6 Anyone?) to really start getting some performance out of that car with the added weight.

Speaking of a Turboed V6 I saw a Evo while I was in my Cobra today. Looked really nice, but then I remembered that I had a Cobra and that was an Evo and I would lose, so I cried.

The end.

Exactly what i was going to say, BOTH cars had 3 peeps
(if you look closely the guy in the back videotaping turns around at the end of the vid, and you can see a person in the passenger side aswell)

Yeah but I really dont consider a 30K + car a sport compact.

loadedgt · 07-18-2005, 08:12 AM

Ha I raced an sti with my 96 GT 5-sp and got my ass handed to me by about 3 car lengths. I didn't expect to win, just like I don't with SS's or cobras
