GT vs. EB high performance for city driving

[bluebeastsrt]

I don't know where you came up with that. I have two RS's. No acceleration complaints with either. Other than on a dry sunny day an RS will more than likely eat the GT for lunch.

So your saying you wait for it to snow. And then call ever gt in the neighborhood out? That's kinda like sayin my 200hp jeep would stomp your rs. If we raced across a corn field.

Fixed it for you...

No what I’m saying is in the real world the RS not only holds it own in dry weather but if it’s not dry and sunny it will eat most cars for lunch. If you haven’t driven one you don’t have a clue.

The only thing that could've even been remotely interpreted that way was the statement of it being lighter in the front (which it is) and that feels better "to me" on the roads that I drive.

Nowhere in my post did I claim an Ecoboost was a better performance vehicle than a GT and I fail to see the value of you trying to 1up everything I said with "but a GT can do better."

Sheesh, some people are just too sensitive.....Not sure you really read my post or any posts in this thread, if you did, you would know I have only respect for owners of EB's and the platform itself. If anything, the sales of EB's pay the lion's share of improvements year over year for the Mustang.

if it's not dry out i'm thinking a Geo metro has a shot .. but who cares.. it's wet and not the time to be driving stupid.

Im with you. Anyone driving like an asshole in bad weather needs to grow up. My jeep toasts a GT in the rain or snow. But im not racing one. And I'm still drive like its snowing out.I dont know what kind of clue you'd need for that?

That’s the kind of response I would expect from someone that can only drive 1320ft. in a straight line on a sunny day. Give me a break! The RS is the same rain or shine. Your Jeep would be a joke.

Hmm, logic says performance most certainly isn't the same rain or shine. AWD doesn't do squat when you are driving too fast in the rain and rear end the truck in front of you.

Another childish reply. Go play in the rain. Skippy. If your to much of a child to understand there is a time and a place for everything. And when it's raining or snowing is not THE TIME. And a public street is NOT THE PLACE. I cant help you.

If your even close to stock, I think this would give your RS a run for its money rain or shine or snow or through a corn field.

I take my Malibu hellcat hunting every-time it rains. Cats don’t like water.

So you only drive your car one day a week in one place? Must be real enjoyable.

Corn field maybe. Other than that I don't think so.
