I think 2500HeavyDuty nailed it. From a green light I
usually get beat by the stang, but if I'm already rolling...:choochoo:

Let us know how it turns out. :c:

I have ran the new Shelby from a 65mph roll and all the way to the 128mph mark "via GPS" I was in front of him by 2 car lengths... A regular mustang should be no problem at all... But do it from a roll.. Our tq makes up for there light weight cars...

Race him twice-

Once with a boosted launch in 4H and once from a roll at about ten or so.

I think you'll beat from a dig and it'll be pretty close from a roll but you should come out ahead.

make sure when ur doing a roll bold the brake and accelerator down at the same time to load the engine and build boost

yea do it from a round, it takes a lil to get these 8000lb trucks rolling

What clutch are you running? if it's a dual disc, do a 3rd hi 4X4 boosted launch, and you will beat him for sure!!:bat:

if I read the sig right it's an auto and almost making 500 so I would say a good boosted launch and you should be able to take him. if he can't drive very well he may not get any traction either.
