ok first thing... mach 1's are mid 13 second stangs... ive got a video of an automatic runnin i believe its 13.6. 03-04 cobras on the other hand is a 12 second stang.. no way even a stage 2 balt is gonna stay with 1.. if uve ever drove 1 then u will know.. i test drove 1 was fixin to trade my balt for it but decided i liked the better gas mileage better. But no i would have to say it was probably 1 of the infamous 99-04 gt mustangs with the cobra pieces on it... best way to tell if they are stopped is to look at the brake calipers, cobras say cobra on them.. coming from an ex mustang man like myself.. 03 cobras 390hp so no way ur touchin those..

hatrickstu i hope u arent trying to say that the car in those pictures is a vortec charged mach 1.. thats the mustang bullitt, as everyone should be able to see the emblem on the back, no rear wing, and the hood of course.. Mach 1's also have the mustang emblem on the side, not gt.. If ur just posting a pic of a random mustang in there sorry for the confusion then, but ur talkin bout a charged mach 1 and showing pics of a bullitt.

The ass end of the cobras from the 99-01 vs 03 are different.. the 99-04 you will see yellow reverse lights on the bottom inside corners.. the 03's do not have this.. just a quick tidbit to tell the difference as they are walking away.
a stock 03 will completely annihiliate a ss/sc.. dont matter if its S2 or stock.

yea the mach 1 that ran 13.6 with an auto which actually barked drive was at the NMRA world finals in bowling green kentucky..Im originally from kentucky bout an hour east of BG. I go there almost every year and watch them race... The mach 1 was stock also, 03 model i think is what he says when he announces it.. ive saw mach 1's run from 13.3 to 13.8 depends on how good the driver was, but the worst 1 i saw was 13.8 at the world finals.. But yea i wasnt tryin to hate on ya or anything, just thought u may have typoed or brain farted about the bullitt.. lol.. no hard feelings..

Oh, and that was probably just a mistake on stu's part w/ the whole Mach 1 thing. [EDIT: Already addressed ]

And yeah, like I said, my friend's bone stock '03 Cobra trapped 113mph. Unless you've got a heck of a lot of mods on an SS/SC, the Cobra is just going to RUN away.

the yellow mach 1 i raced here is my evidence. i dont know about all machs though. he was very cocky and had been looking to find me for a while. one day he found me we went from 40 and he was pretty much speechless after the 4-6 car beating he took

Actually, I believe only the '99 and '01 cobra's have the yellow reverse lights.

well in all your guys opinions
i was stopped at a red light next to a supposive "mach 1" and i reved up next to him but he just watched forward
when the light turned green i took off and he lightly took of (without spinning) and punched it
by the time we were at like 60-80 or so was when he slowed down but i had like almost a car on him
i have gm stage 2
injen cai
cti race header and downpipe
and corsa touring exaust
my buddy who loves mustangs said that there was no way i beat a mach 1 and it was probably just a gt with mach1 decals
can i get your opinions on this???

i have not had any personal experience racing SN95 Gen II GTs so i do not know.. but based on what i have read from people then i will say this can highly be likely...
i have only raced a SN95 Gen I GT and i clowned stomped him into the ground (3 cars by 110 starting from about a 20 mph..He didnt want to start from a dig.. go figure?)

Im a mustang guy, machs are nice but they are far from invinceable. Gears, exhaust and some stickey tires, and they're fun.

Well, true, it's not like either sound way different than the other, and my Bullitt currently sounds pretty dang good, IMO. It's hard to say 2V vs. 4V for sure because there are so many different exhaust setups for each that all have different sounds. But anyway...
