That is really random.

No FullTilt is right. Its a 05-09 which should be the 3V 4.6. It does look like he has a 5.0 badge though.

Most of the cars in the video arent very quick in stock or milded modded form. Most of the old 5.0s on the road are pretty freakin slow.

I was taught long ago to keep the exhaust quiet...unless you can back it up.

I don't know where you live but speak for yourself. If you were local you'd be proven wrong real quick.

My office is directly off our family room, and my desk is directly behind the TV. I have a cable hookup in the office, but that put the router on a different wall than my PC and I'd have to run a wire along the baseboard and over the door jam and would need about 35' or so. And I hooked up my TV to the router at the same time, so that would just not be pretty.

So I put the router in my TV cabinet, and just poked a hole in the drywall behind the fancy outlet I have for my loose low-voltage cables up to my TV and life is grand now.

One thing I was happy about, this house was wired with those dual port outlets for high/low cable like back in the 80s. and I was able to run a signal to both from the main splitter in the basement so I didn't have to split the signal a second time to the router/cable box.

Around here there is a big LSx following its hard for a 5.0 to keep up, there were fast in the early 90s.

Like I said most cars in the video are pretty slow in mildly modded form. I see strong running bolt on Foxs running a little over 100 mph, Ive seen H/C 5.0s with spray run around 115 depending on the size of the shot.

Remember I said mildly modified, sure there are fast fox bodies but not many of them are running an N/A old school 5.0.

Ive seen bolt on 3vs dyno a little over 300whp.

For comparison a stock LT1 M6 will normally trap around 100mph, and thats the GM bastard, with LS1s in the 105-109 range STOCK and bolt on ls1s trapping 113-115 and H/C LS1s trapping over 120

With all the LSxs running around your slow unless your trapping at least 115mph. Everytime you go to the races the slower cars are closer to stock Fbodys GTOs and Mustang..

Last meet/race I went to, a friend brought his heads and solid roller cam LS1 ws6, and he wasnt even close to the fastest car there. There were at least 10 built LSxs and a couple of strong turbo cars and some fast old schools stuff.

There is plenty of fast stuff around here but very little of it is foxbodys and even less are still runnning a 5.0. Most fox bodys around here are bolt on or have GT40 heads and a cam, not fast.

Bolt on LS1 vs Cammed 5.0


Cliff notes: Two slow cars racing, less slow car wins

cool story bro......my statement still stands. idgaf about this bench racer bullshit.

around here the average fox traps over 130. just because you don't have them there don't mean ****.

you made a shitty general statement about a certain car based on a random video. one of the miatas in the bay area videos traps 127 with a terrible '60 at that. your boys bolt on ws6 would probably get a short shifting pity race just for giggles, its nothing to base anything else off

here's someones on this very forum:

slow right?

Oh look a fast fox, like i said they are out there but it isn't any representation of the **** you see everyday. Built motor with boost, yah not close to stock or what would be considered mildly modified like the slow **** in the video.

When you start boosting and building motors ANYTHING can be fast, but that doesnt mean that most of that car on the road isnt slow.

Look TWO fast Diesels, Im sure we can still agree that even though some are fast most are still slow as *****.

You're wrong, Vlad. That fox runs 13's at best.

Opti is right, miata's on youtube cannot be fast. It's science based on long and lonely years yelling at people on the internet.

HERP DERP

no ****? IMPOSSIBRU

look here, don't try to steer the argument in another direction. I said speak for yourself, because you're making ignorant statements then back pedaling and making general statements. cool story bro, no one gives a ****.

I dunno whatever bum **** egypt city you live in, but to make a statement about Nor-Cal mustangs when you don't have even a dick tip worth of a clue is pretty ignorant, wouldn't you say? especially since you're basing it on some random video..
instead of trying to argue for the sake of arguing, how about put up some videos of fast cars in your area, or stfu.

k thx bi

Opti

Here is the same car (ABR miata) vs a stock GTO wins by maybe a car, and a 3V GT w/ bolt ons seems to beat it but its hard to tell.

Like I said video is not impressive because its running a bunch of slow *** cars, because most of them are pretty close to stock, nothing like the Fox you posted or most of the foxes on the road.

omg, are you thick?

if you don't like the videos, put up some exciting videos of fast cars in YOUR area then. not random **** off youtube. preferably of YOUR MIATA, being FAST, and/or racing other FAST cars. its pretty simple. and if you don't have any, then kindly **** off

any ********** can criticize a video. not many put up their own

*edit: I don't even know who this ABR guy is, apparently some local, (and I'm not a big fan of Fox body mustaings either)......I'm in no way defending his car, just pointing out your fail
