cleveland said:All good comments and your exeperiences lead you to believe that the GTs cant stick with the Machs and are simply a bit slower. If you look around a bit more there are plenty of 05 GT owners that ran 13.4 @ 101 right off the bat.
TAKE NOTE, SOMEONE RAN A 13.2 @ 101 WITH AN 05 GT RIGHT OFF THE SHOWROOM FLOOR WITH A 1.8 60 FOOT.
Please share a timeslip that was driven with an 03-04 Mach 1 right off the showroom floor. Im sure there is one out there that ran a 13.2 or so.

It might be possible for a stock 05 GT to run a 13.2, i have just never seen it. But if you honestly believe that a stock 05gt on stock tires ran a 1.8 60ft, you have alot to learn about racing. Unless its fully gutted with full drag suspension thats not going to happen. Unless that track was like glue i say BS. Even on a Nitto dragradial a 1.8 is hard to get with stock suspension. Ive seen alot of 05 gt's at the track and most of them have crazy wheelhop. Also a few guy claim to have hit high 12s in bone stock machs. Im not sure if i completely believe them but one guy claims a 12.89 and a bunch have claimed 12.9s. I did know of a guy who ran a 12.8(whitnessed by other club members) with just a pro 5.0 shifter but thats not bone stock Either way both are awsum cars
Here is a vid of my mach at the track. I had exhaust, gears, 15s and non drag friendly roadrace suspension. 6800rpm launch peeling in every gear
