Funny thing about the GTR. My first day cruising with the car I had my buddy talking about how I could probably smoke everyone nearby when a GTR comes around the corner. We both started laughing as I thought how short lived that comment was. I didn't even bother trying.
The GTR is so damn fast its crazy. When I say I got eaten alive I mean it was like a kid on a bicycle racing a train at full tilt.

I was cross shopping my Mustang with a GTR and was able to secure a test drive this car is out of this world insane. Mustang is fast but GTR is on another level completely.

The GTR is a great car for sure and the all wheel drive gives it a big advantage, but it's acceleration can easily matched with a boosted Mustang or a 18-19 NA tuned. All able to break into the 10's.

Every man and his dog that pulls up next to me what to race. Granted, I am pretty sure they think my car is just stock unless they know who TickFord is.

But the look on thier faces when I am not really pushing hard and keeping up or pulling away is priceless.

We have different annoying drivers down here in Oz, mainly the VW Golf R crew and Commodores (now opels) The Occasional Euro will show off with their GF in the car when I let them take off like a bat out of hell, then destroy them when we meet up at the next set of lights.

I love racing S197 guys. They can't stand that my S550 is faster & quicker, and more 'Mustang' then there cars. Best one was against a gotta have it green s197. BOSS intake, BDS throttle body, air raid CAI, longtubes, x-pipe, pizza cutter front runners, 60 series reads on 15's. Use to be friends, after that he unfriended me from facebook, and no more chit chats at the meets LOL.

Well I can ad a Hellcat redeye to the list for this year. They run 10.6s@131 with drag radials in +1500DA. I wasn't impressed.

Never seen a hellcat run faster than an 11.5 up in my neck of the woods. What do you guys use for traction juice? Superglue?

I'm pretty damn impressed with a 10.6@131.
Its all what your used to. Todays fast street cars are all running 9s. Back in the 90s. If you had a 10 second car. You ruled the streets. Now bolt on camaros and Mustangs run that.

I get that, but mid 10s in a big heavy, fully equipped car is amazing to me. Not much you're going to come across on the street that will be able to compete.

Again I disagree. That car is currently 100 grand. That kind of Cheddar buys a lot of go fast. If you want to talk about that kind of speed and warranties. That’ll muddy the waters a little. Collectibility comes into the conversation. That muddied it more. But from a pure go fast prospective. Naw. On a side note. Here’s a video of my wife racing a 9 second stage 2. 2018 Mustang from the same night. She’s getting good at the lights! The stage 2 ran a 9.9 to her 10.2. But she killed him at the tree.

Dang, I didn't realize they were so expensive. I still thought they were 60 to 70k. Maybe I'm just easily impressed, but anything running 10s in my book is pretty damn fast.
