the other day coming home from (meps)..joinin the air force ...this black ws6 came up right next to me on the highway..sounded so good so the guy looked at me and i looked at him and it was on...we raced from a 60mph roll..thought i would get spanked we got to bout 110 and he only had a half a car on me and we even bout dead even til 100 or so..after 110 he pulled on me easy..gave me the thumbs up and i did da same.it was a manual and i thought i was bout to get spanked badly..it was fun

 

Nice job. I raced one awhile back and we pretty much hung side by side.

 

don't forget they're pretty heavy for the power they make.

 

yes we are

 

yes they r heavy...but i still thought i was going to get raped..thinkin bout gettin one when i get out of boot

 

Too bad Gm decided to quit production of them. They are actually very good looking as well as strong running muscle cars. I saw a beautiful yellow and black one while back. Eye candy..

 

Smoked one a couple weeks ago. A guy I work with has one and we ran the 1/4. Got him by a car out of the whole and stayed like that the rest of the race. His is a 2000 WS6. Beat a genIII camaro a few days after that, BAD.

 

I would rather take a WS6 over a Camaro. They look a lot meaner. Yes they are heavt, but they can be made pretty damn fast.

Jaybird - you gotta sexy looking WS6 by the way. What do you have done to it?

 

GM hasn't made a good looking F-body since 1973.

 

all Bolt-ons & 224 cam. Plan to go alittle bigger in the cam department this summer.
3.73 gears
Fast LSX 78MM intake/ported TB
Eibach prokit
BMR subframe connectors
BMR relocation brackets
BMR lower control arms
BMR Adjustable panhard rod
ASP pulley
and a few little things here and there.

Dynoed: 398HP + 385TQ Havent been to the track yet waiting on a new rear

 

Jesus, that's a lot of power dude! Nice work. Damn those motors are strong. I could NEVER get that much N/A power out of my mach.

 

Do you know what you put down stock?

 

it was only 295hp and 320tq with a 2800 stall. But that was when it was an automatic.

 

damn, those are strong numbers for a stock auto......I know people on mustang websites say they smoke WS6's and camaro's all the time, and some might, but the others are either full of crap or the person in the LS1 couldn't drive worth a damn...A win is a win, but a 99-04 bolt on mustang gt is going to have serious trouble with a stock LS1, let alone one with mild boltons or any other mods.

 

I agree with you 100% I've raced a stock '02 SS, and a lightly modded '00 (I think) SS, and beat them both. But they were definately no slouches. The 00 beat me one race, but I got him the other two. Stock for stock it would definately be a good race.

 

yes it would be. Anything can happen on the street.

 

Yes, stock for stock they are very close in the 1/4 mile. I've slapped several LS1's, but I've also been bitch slapped several times as well. LOL...I mean really bitch slapped..ha ha

 

I hate losing (getting bitch slapped LOL).

 

Yeah but also no matter how fast and powerful the car. its the driver that controls it to see how good it runs. a great mustang driver vs. a bad SS driver the mustang can easily win

 

i test drove a 2002 ws6 today 6speed and it didn't feel much faster than my gt from a dead stop..but the car was soo freakin nice though!! I think ford should start makin there gt's a lil bigger on the engine scale...i hate how everyone's else v8's are so much bigger and can handle more power n/a vs n/a

 

I hear that!

 

how fast are they?? i raced one last night and i had him by 3 cars!!!he told me the reason he lost was because he had 20 inch rims!!!lol..

 

talk about adding more weight to an already heavy car. I saw a 03 GT today, with like 22 inch rims. looked ridiculous.

 

lol...yea..i see those all the times...they look horrible

 

They're scary fast man - LOL

Yeah I had to post up on this old thread too since I'm a T/A driver hiding behind a pic of my girl's car

My '98 LS1 T/A did 291hp/327tq stock auto. To date only mods are CAI(SLP lid), cat-back(SLP Loudmouth), SFCs(Kenny Brown DD), and some minor tuning (LS1 Edit). The car's biggest problem is traction on the street. Especially for me, I also have a line lock just for fun and I usually roll around on hard, worn, $15 used rear tires. Can you say smokeshows? I've been on both sides, lost to cars I shouldn't have and beat cars I should've got left by. Any of us have, nobody wins 'em all. As far as 20s go, yeah I'm sure that car had no forward bite, not to mention that it had to be hideous looking. Oops, I mentioned it

Even I will take a shot at the T/As though, in particular WS6 hoods! That big snorkel is too much. I have the flat steel hood, but the 'glass Firehawk hood is the only other I'd consider having. The 'hawk hood is ram air, but is just 1 gaping hole that sits lower(much better profile) the the dual scoop-on-top-of-scoop WS6 design.

 

holy sh*t chatman, i'm from b'ville too, small world ain't it? i'm suprised we haven't come across eachother on here before, hell we've both been signed up for bout 2 yrs, lol.

 

what part of b-ville..i live over by beacon...

 

**** dude that's springhill, lol. i live east of bville, between b'ville and hillandale. good to see at least one other person from the area reppin' a 'stang on here!
