Lol I think the torque from the 5.0 got him:gringreen
My guess he had 3.73s or a 4.10 rearend. I'd take the Mach with a good driver over an 05 as far as performance.JEB said:I came across a late model Mach one the other day, we played tag on I 75. He was in front of me, and tried to leave me. Didn't happen. I stayed glued to him, and plenty of pedal left to use. He was at WOT, and I was tapping the gas to show him I had more. As the right lane opened, I passed him on the right, gave him a thumbs up which he returned. Sad thing is, I have no idea how fast we were going. Too much adrenaline.
I think you would've had alot harder time with a GT.
Good kill to you, though! Gotta love the 5.0.
I googled it, and most 1/4 times I see for the 03 Mach (stock) are in the 13.7-14.01 range. The top speed is much higher than what an 05 is listed, 160 vs 145 (governed). The hp is listed at 305. 320 ft lbs torque.jasons99gt said:My guess he had 3.73s or a 4.10 rearend. I'd take the Mach with a good driver over an 05 as far as performance.

I have a female cousin in Enterprise Alabama that had a completely tricked out old Beetle. Way cool car! For a bug, it was fast. Had suicide doors, stovepipe exhaust, no back seat, just speaker boxes.funkbuster said:only in my wildest dreams would I ever get enough money to super or turbo charge it. That is like, my biggest dream other than a very nice old beetle.
