First big kill with my stang
So me and the wife were headed home from Olive Garden after stuffing our faces and came across a red 2002 ws6 trans am 6 speed. At first I wasn't sure how my stock 3.31 geared stang would do against a full exhaust and tuned t/a but to my surprise I beat him 3-0 from a dig, a 30 roll and a 50 roll. From a dig he couldn't launch for s#*t and I put an easy 8 cars on him and I pulled no less than 4 cars every other run...needless to say I am very impressed with my pony and after owning a trans am before it felt good to put one down  well I guess I'll stop rambling now just wanted to share

Congrats!! I always wondered how much of a difference existed (performance wise) between the 3.31 gears and either the 3.55 or 3.73 gears. I am sure it is somewhat noticeable but likely not 100% outcome determinative.

The 3.31 gears still blow the tires loose without any issue but then again ford for some reason decided to put 235s on a 400hp car....

Yep, ate a tuned 2000 Camaro SS for lunch the other day myself. First slaughter for my stock 2013 stang aswell but congrats on your murder. Saw a V6, 12' stang eat a 07' Pontiac G8 GT with the 6.0. Laughed my ass off!

I smoked a challenger RT the other day with my bolt on 3v, so if you lose to that 300c, you should just sell your car.

I agree. My LS1 Vette is as fast as a new 5.0, stock for stock. But that's plenty different than an Fbody car.

5.7L Hemis suck. 375hp in those 4,000lb cars is just pathetic compared to what the SS Camaros and GT Mustangs are doing.

Mopar is garbage in general... I'd much rather sport a Ford or GM. Too many horror stories from friends and family that owned Chrysler/Dodge products.
