What does the A6 15-17 GT run in the 1/4 compared to the M6? About the same?
One 2015-17 ran 12.39 with the A6 bone stock, with bone stock tire (stats are in the drag race forum here). Some 2015-17 MT-82 running 12.6 - 12.7. Average em all out and I'm sure the difference between 15-17 MT-82 & 18-20 MT-82 (with better tires from the factory) cars are statistically insignificant.

Come on guys feelings! What about facts? The Mustang has a smooth and linear power delivery, especially with a ten speed automatic. You want it to feel more powerful get a manual trans, and you’ll still lose to a 10 speed auto every time. Summation: Women are all about their feelings, Men are all about the facts..know your role!!!

2018 Mustang GT Convertible with Performance Pack
The 2018 and newer cars with the Performance Pack and the A10 are reportedly running a consistent high 11's right out of the box. THAT is screaming fast. In fact, it is almost as fast as my 2013 GT500 with the 6 speed. Having owned a plethora of muscle cars and hot rods over the years, this car is damn fast.

Agreed. Ford kinda snuck the 18 model year changes right under our noses with the gen3 a10. Fastest auto GT mustang to date by far. Car loves the corn.

Had it in drag mode, rolled the pedal into 1st, floored it in 2nd, tires broke loose when it shifted to third (A10) on a straight away. Feels pretty fast on the butt dyno.

First time I used drag mode was like...damn.
I have a 18 GT A10, auto transmission less than 10,000 miles
with JLT CAI, tune 95 octane from bama, JMS pedal max , 275/40/19 rear wheels, advance track disconnected, drag mode
when I hammer the accelerator, low end power is weak. I run 0-60 in 4,7 sec. I can't tear off tyres
Is it normal ?

Mid range to high range is awesome. Under 3500 RPM feels slow

I'm disapointed with that car. It feels slow
What to check ?
Help please

Bama tune is your problem... lol.

Plus you cannot disconnect at the box with drag mode (lose it) unless your tuner has coded that out.

OMG...
Lol. What tune do you suggest ? factory map is worst on power, mileage and shifting pressure

I had the challenger 392 WideBody... you hit those cars and they move. I do miss mine. I like the 5.0, but wish I’d had it for a couple hundred miles before I purchased it. Nice car but build quality might be worse than my dodge and yes def less power also

Low end torque generally feels faster than top end power. What feels fast and what actual is may be different. Buddies Scat pack a8 392 with 2000 miles and hellcat inlet was 12.5 @ 112 car at my track. Felt fast as hell on street.

I thought that factory car with 468hp could tear off tyres just disconnecting traction control and hammer accelerator. That's what I thought of a "muscle car".
