    I'm just going by hearsay, etc. not actual time at the track.

    what kind of gearing does a stock '05+ GT 5M have?



    and still runs 13's!! (I'm sure real drivers will get more from it )



    what's "5G" mean?
    Yeah, the GT500 is pig heavy. If car manufacturers continue on this trend, we can anticipate sports cars in 20 years weighing as much as a 747.

    Honestly, I do not know the Tremec transmission gear ratios off the top of my head, but I'm sure I can dig it up.

    The 5M rear end gear ratio is 3.55:1
    V6's get a 3.31:1

    5G= 5th Generation

      You LS2 owners need to go spend some time at the track and see just how close the LS2 Boat and the new Mustang GT's really are. Math looks good on paper, but the times at the track are indisputable. Boils down to a driver's race, and we've all witnessed how most Mustang drivers are.

      Don't worry folks, Ken is confused, because he doesn't know it, but his wife Mary has secretly been switching female hormones for his Ensure. That's why he is always bitchy, has man boobs, and wears a man purse when he goes to the gym!

      "whos faster" cr@p anymore....... i buy the car for me .....ive had perf cars all my life, since 67......... i get alot of compliments on how nice the car looks...and to me...that brings the smile...and a lot of folks saying "thats the new gto...? ive not seen one...." or "ive never seen a gto like this one, is it special order"? then conversations begin....."tie me kangaroo down, jack........".... i get behind the wheel...and its me and the car...... averaging 400 miles a month now in 18 months... its my skate... the only car i would even consider buying to replace it right now is a Z06.......some day i might..... you can have your Shelby 500 and mustang gt's...... i dont drive fords..........sorry.

      maybe since you love mustangs so much, you should sell your car,buy a mustang and change to a ford forum.....that way you can really hoop it up............

        we got a ton of gto owners running high 12's with almost stock cars on the gto forum.. one thing ive found though is there are many gto owner who are first time perf car kids....tons of em.... they cant drive worth cr@p. one guy raced his wife, who just took delivery of a brand new gtp....and she beat him...he posted and wanted to know why?.... he has an m6........he was shifting at 3500 rpm..........hahahahahahaa

        there tons of inexperienced gto drivers out there...just tons of mustang drivers.......

                          That's also about what I saw the LS2 Goats running also.

                          I wouldn't discount how fast the new 5M's are. And the go fast parts for Stang's are pretty cheap.

                          The new Mustang Shelby GT500 is over 500 HP.

                          I hope GM stuffs a monster powerplant in the 5G Camaro.

                              Yep. Went up against 3 of them. 2 got spanked badly as it was evident they couldn't drive. The third was a different story. I drilled him out of the hole but then he slowly was reeling me in..... just couldn't quite do it in time. That should be a high 12 or 13 flat at maybe 105-106.
