Met up with this guy I've been talking to. He has a 2004 Automatic GT with a t/b, mass air, x-pipe, ported intake plenum, k&n, and a chip... thinks he has 3.27's, 3.55's were an option in the 04's. I have what's in my signature.
First race: From a 40 mph roll, was in 2nd about 4,000 rpm's.. he honked it off and towards the end of 4th gear he was about 2 cars in front of me (there was 1 car space between my front bumper and his rear bumper).
Second race: Don't remember what mph but I was in 1st gear at about 3800 rpm's, by the end of 4th it was the same as above.
He said we would be dead even if he didn't have his chip. Everytime I shifted he would pull on me a little bit more. He definitely didn't walk me like I was told he would. So all in all I am glad I wasn't beaten badly or anything. I raced a stock 2004 gt with an x pipe (auto) and beat him by 2 cars. The guy I raced today manually shifts his car the first 2 gears also. I want to race him when I get my intake on again and see how much better I do. He is getting 3.73's installed next week though so I don't think I will have the intake on in time. I guess I am just posting this to let some of you near stock stangs on here know that the new gt's dont beat us that bad! Haha.
