That seems about right (even though I could accept an automatic running mid 16s).

Not saying you're lying 2000 silver, you may be sincere in what you THINK was a race against decent stock 5.0 Mustang.
I don't hate V6s and I don't look down (much) on V6s, but I am one of those skeptics. Yeah, it COULD'VE happened, but it didn't. At least not the way you're describing it. Like I said b4, either that 5.0 had some issues or you got yourself one heck of a monster V6 (Now don't get all huffy and puffy).
