Wrong. It's all in the driver. If you got balls and adept at shifting, you win. I can also turn on the race thingy too but there's no need.

Haha, my F150 has the same engine your new mustang has it would most likely beat the truck regardless of driver because of the weight difference. However, if I get the F250 with the Powerstroke especially the 2015 model which they put a bigger turbo in it and optimized the setup I will have double the torque and approximately 20+ more horsepower stock vs stock. So a race like that would boil down to controlling wheel spin and shifting.

I had a powerstroke F250. I'm pretty confident once I'm fully used to this stick and clutch I'll still kick your ass. Your rear is going to bounce when you push it. Fact.

Your f250 was the 6.0 with 325 HP 560-570 FPTQ the 2015 powerstroke is 6.7 with 440HP 880 FPTQ, a pretty big step up from what you had. The the tire spin/bouncing and shifting is the big disadvantage and can make it a toss up. The only way to help with the bouncing is add weight to the bed lol

No. My F250 was the 7.0. No cheating adding weight to the bed. You gotta be good enough with it stock.

When I put my foot down on my truck and wind out the gears, it sounded like a fucking jet taking off. That thing had POWER and torque. Older model maybe, but it kicked ass. It was also 3" higher and had one more leaf in the springs than EVERY other truck off the line that year. It snuck in before that stupid 15" rule.

I'm pretty sure if I still had my truck and you had your new one, I'd still kick your ass in a race truck to truck.

depending how you set up your suspension you can lose that race real easy tk

all your talk about spinning tires and adding weight comes back to this earlier statement i made, which i was told was wrong initially. I'll accept your retraction now.

Also getting a good tree matters so much when it's close, and well men are just faster.

I'm not setting anything up. Stock off the lot after break-in is fine with me. Pretty sure I told Anthony no adding weight

I gotta ask, have any of you ever actually been in a drag race, ever waited for the lights to go down and see what it's all about?
