That being said nice kill, I love to bring people back to reality even if they are not ford guys.
    very true.

    the 3-1 downshift in an auto is awesome, but at 30 mph I can still drop to first gear too lol.

    nice kill.

      Car sounds great man. I always loved the 20-30 roll sound, when she wakes up and digs.

            You mentioned in comments that you were surprised how easy you took him.... hmmm... wonder was he an automatic by chance? There have been reports of a few of the automatic SS's actually being a LOT slower than the V6s... I kid you not... guys reporting like 7 second 0-60 times... just a thought...

              I couldn't tell if it was an auto or 6 speed cause I couldn't hear it. It was very easy but i'm sure I would have won either way.

                Yep, I'm sure you would! Very nice numbers on you car!!!

                just wondering if perhaps it was one of those mysteriously slow L99s...

                      The automatic SS's can be slow because of the awful torque management...

                      Turn that off and BOOM.

                          that is some of it... but I believe there are some cars where it is MUCH WORST than just the TM stuff...

                          I can tell the TM stuff is holding my automatic back a bit... shifts are really soft and slow... and the car goes to -8 degrees timing! LOL!
