I was talking to a guy at work the other day, and the topic of cars came up, and he recently got an '04 Mustang GT. So during our discussion he was dogging on the F-body, and he admitted that I'd spank him in a drag race, but he bought the car for the handling not for drag racing.
So my question is do the GTs really handle any better than an F-body? I was under the impression that they both handled fairly equally, both are addequate and both can be improved on. I don't hear much talk about the rustangs handling, so I don't know much about them. What is your feeling, knowledge, and/or experience with them handling wise in comparison to an F-body? |

Also for those who are looking note that Marcus would have been 3rd in ESP if not for cones.
The advantages of each make for pretty much equal cars. That's one of the reasons these AWD cars being in our class is such bullshit. BTW Sam was Marcus on Hoosiers still at Nationals? If so he's gonna give folks a rough time next year. I havn't read the entire thread yet but in some cases, if not most, the Mustangs have more torque. If not in engine ratings, but in torque multiplied by trans ratios, and rear end ratios. I've heard Marcus's car has 200lbs or more of torque AT IDLE! S/P built 351 Cobra R engine. |
