This is one of the best races I have seen and is a testament to how far ford has come with their latest engine.

You think so? Not really a fan of it. Amazing what a vinyl check mark and a stick on hood scoop and side louvers can do? lol

i love how the 5.0 N/A pulls ahead by a slight margin in the lower gears and only when shifting into its highest gear does the roush catch up and take a slight lead (fender lead that is)...

just imagine what your 5.0 is going to do with a WHIPPLE...LAY THE SMACK DOWN...:top:

Everyone has a mustang.... Impressive NA vs boosted, but still very common cars....

as common as a RENT-A-CAR...but it still has more aftermarket support than the TACOMA, TUNDRA, and FJ Cruiser combined...:frown:

I don't know that is a pretty typical comment from most JDM boys :laugh:.

If its mass produced, its not unique; that is after all the point of the aftermarket world domestic or foreign.

I will be plain jane any day with 800+ HP under the hood.

This shows what they still need to catch up too....

Lol just had to post you losing..

Are u butt hurt cause I said the Roush looks better ROFL! It's not the vinyl cause I hate any and all Vinyl on the side of a car/truck. It's the spoiler/lip that I like the most and the white paint. The side louvers can go and I'd get something that looks better and I'd def strip that vinyl of the sides YUCK!

I work with this old bastard that lies through his teeth about EVERYTHING and thinks his lil auto roush 4.6 is the fastest car on earth. I'm hoping someone else at the job will get the new 5.0 and put him in his place. Or I'll do it myself once I get a Fox body project goin....Nice find.

Murderface · Oct 1, 2011

Doug don't get me wrong I love the 2011 5.0 more then anything produced after 1973, if my wife would let me id get rid of the X for one and Whipple tha shit outta it!

Jokes on you guy!

That GT500 obviously is modded (either pulleys or a different blower im not sure but its definitely not a stock blower sound).

Considering that it didn't do too bad for a N/A car vs. a modified boosted car.

The 5.0 is a better engine then the current GT500 5.4.

With the same blower the 5.0 makes on 10-12 PSI what the GT500 makes on 16-18 PSI with less displacement....

This is why Ford is upgrading the new GT500 this or next model year with a variation of the Coyote engine.

Why buy a 55,000 shelby when you can buy a GT for 30K, drop 8K into it and get a better supercharger system and more power?

I know it's an obvious win but I just had to post you losing... :top:

$75,000.00 car vs. a $35,000.00 car HAH!

Throw $8,000 bucks into that mustang and you get this:

Oh damn... and all for 30,000.00 less!

What can you do with an extra 30,000? hmmm....

Actually I got one better for you!

How about matching that $75,000.00 GTR performance (AWD, electronic driver, boosted V6) with a naturally aspirated RWD manual car and bolt ons?
