drove 4.6 01 GT not impressed

[Dark_5.0]

I will conceed that 99% of the time a 5 speed 4.6 will take a stock fox stock vs. stock

But ill be damned if a stock 4.6 should beat a mildly moded (gears ,exhaust) 5.0 with a good driver, I am sure it happens often but I think that is more driver error than 4.6 superiority.

I always get a kick out of the guys that come to the track in there new GT's for the first time.....They automaticly start saying how they have a 13 second car, stock.....And attract the attention of the LS1 guys who repeatidly smoke there @ss on camera and post it in the LS1 forums.

Most 5.0's are not stock.......And I have noticed that most 4.6 drivers keep there cars basicly stock.....

The fact remains that the 5.0 is still king of the strip and the only cars that come close to the level of dominance that the 5.0 has enjoyed for over a decade is the LS1.

The stock vs. stock arguement is not worth having cause not many people race "stock" cars at the track. I admire the guys that do run fast times in stock cars.Unfortunately my car was a turd in stock form 15.2 @88 and after thousands of dollars I will probably run a mid 13 on slicks @3000ft.

So for those of you that do run in the 13's stock Congrats!!!
