  • My 96 RS(stock) vs Highly modified V6 Mustang

    I don't get it and to be honest I should have lost big time but I didn't.

    A have a friend of mine who built this 98 V6 Mustang and this thing was highly modified. He's got aftermarket brakes, suspension, and a cold air intake with a couple of pullys when where driving down the road it sounds like its supercharged going down the road.

    The only thing I do have is an exhaust system off a Z28 as well as no rev limiter so the dealer says. I also have had friends confrm that I have gears but donno if its true or not.

    We ran it twice and both times he lost

    the first time he claimed to have it in 2nd but i'am like how is that possible when your an auto?.

    The second time I still beat him off the line it was very close and i'am close to losing but in the end I won by a fender, however he did started catching me pretty quickly towards the end especially had it been maybe another 100yards or so I would have been done. Other than that he does want a rematch except he wants to go from a rolling start this time. I'am sure he knows something that i donno about.:(

    Iv'e been racing pretty much my whole life while I don't know much about him other than he run's it once in a while.

    Was a very lucky on this one or do V6 stangs just suck?. Could experience have something to do with this?. This isn't the first time Iv'e walked on fully moded cars like this and should have lost big time. Iv'e ran against some very well modified hondas in my RS and should have lost but in the end I end up winning however this was a V6 mustang that should have walked me hard.

      Could have been run at the track...he didnt say the road.

      but yea, that is not heavily modded at all...that is some mild bolt ons...highly modified would be cam/heads/intake/FI/nitrous....

        He suspension and brakes are fully aftermarket.

        Hell he even has a fully modified rear diff.:stp:

        The only thing thats left on the car that hasn't been touched has been the motor which has a cold air intake and a couple of other bolt on's.

          brakes dont make you go fast....suspension work can make a difference on the track provided it is set up properly, and it depends on what he has done...things like STB and sfc will add weight...

          whats done to the rear diff?

          CAI is no big deal...

            Sounds like he's got a CAI for performance mods; your car can take him no problem. V6 Mustangs are slow compared to ours.

              given its late november, he lives in colorado, and the facts that A) no times provided B) he wants to go from a roll next time. its pretty safe to say he was NOT at a track. i know there's no way in hell there is a track open in colorado this late in the year.

              in any case, its not highly modded, saying a car with a bit of suspension work and "fully modified rear diff" and lets not forget this is the turd of turd v6 mustangs anyways with it being a sn95, 150hp car. if you didnt beat him i could see a problem, but its not like you just edged out a s197 gt. even at best a sn95 v6 still sucks with those mods.

                  Based off of those mods, the Mustang is nowhere near being highly modded. It's not even a full bolt-on car. I didn't even see mention of exhaust... Transmission could probably use some upgrades. And yes, 1993-1998 v6 mustangs are some of the slowest out there.

                  Oh, and street racing... :slap:

                      well, logic says he's probably not going to be there the next time he runs

                      ok...so it's "highly modded." Doesn't mean it's fast. Bottom line, looks like you were fighting a bloated, overweight mustang...which is hardly anything to be afraid of
