Both cars have mufflers, untuned.

Stang made 376/338 at stock weight, 230 lb driver

Vette made 315/324 at stock weight plus larger/wider wheels, 190 lb driver, 165 lb passenger in first 2 vids.

2 of these didnt turn out on the phone, this one was the best. Only change was passenger in 5.0 instead of Vette.

This is what I was told. All runs to 155-160.

bout 250lb difference first two vids, about 550lbs the last vid...

[DeddRekoning]

strong runs especially going to 155~

Thought the 5.0 would have done better against a c5. Makes me feel better if I ever run across one now.

[crapstang]

That c5 did pull really well.

Am I the only one who likes the look of C5 Z's and FRC's over C6's?

No. I have a good friend that just sold his 976rwhp 06 and bought a 99 FRC. Looks much meaner. I had a 99 red FRC and loved that car. Thats one of the cars I most regret selling.
They just feel so nimble compared to their heavier counterparts. Plus I love the lines.

My FRC would always pull on stockish (cause they were new at the time) Termis. Always shocked me cause they had 50+ more HP. Really shows what weight does to a car.

I prefer them as well. Looking at the rear view mirror in the videos it appears to be a nassau blue frc......... very rare and desirable. Having prev. owned an electron blue z06, id love to find a nassau frc.

Is the Vette geared better from the factory?

[Doug Hatton]

My guess is the Mustang is a stock geared 3.15 A6 based on the HP/TQ numbers from above.

Its a 3.31 6 speed manual base car. Or so I was told...

Yea Karson, it's Nassau 2000. 1 of 189. 188 if we count Jon's being murdered at Cars and Coffee earlier this year.

I had a 99 FRC Nassau I sold in Oct to a guy in Florida. This is the wife's.

That's low ass tq numbers for a manual.

Don't forget Lemans blue. 1/2000. Lighter & faster too. (24hr lemans ed.) =)

[White_lightning]

[Garceeya]
