i was at a party and there was a 5.0 mustang with a better exhaust n stuff dragging a preditor and a kfx 400 at diff. rounds. the preditor looked like it was all stock, but it seemed a little loud, maybe he took the internal baffle out? and the kfx was stock too except he took off all the baffles makin it a straight thru pipe. anyways, the KFX smoked the 5.0 down the road. with the preditor it was a little more even tho....but still, if mustangs are so slow, why is everyone buying them?

Man, 5.0 mustangs are fast. You have to look at the power to weight ratio here. I have beat a 4.3L S-10 on my 250EX before. And you know my 250 is not fast.

It's just that the 5.0 is a lot bigger and heavier and that the bikes are lighter and geared better for there weight. It has nothing to do with the 5.0 being slow.

Your comparing apples to oranges.

I have had 2 mustangs. They are definitaley fast. My last one I could beat anything lined up against me. In my area at least. But everyone is right about the power to weight ratios.

Exactly!:macho

My friend has a WS6 TA with headers, exhaust, bigger throttle body.....a very fast car...

I have an 01 1200 Harley Davidson, which most people are so quick to say Harley's are slow.....but when him and I raced, I whipped his arse up until 90-100mph.

You can't compare two different vehicles like that.

any car will catch up in the long run, even my neon will hit 110, but my 400ex never will.
