What are the temps outside? I see you're in TX so maybe the weather is a bit warmer.


Anything 55 degrees and below I can incenerate the tires in the first 3 gears. I of course have a manual PP car.

do you have an auto?

are you in 'sport' mode so the car won't shift for you?
Just tried that I think that's about average isn't it? The 4.7 was also doing a small brake launch to maybe 1200 rpm

I live in Texas as well and I can't ever seem to keep traction! I also haven't floored it since its been warm either.

Are we talking about a 2015 or a Mustang II?
Ouch! My first car was a '75 Mustang II Mach 1 and it could spin the tires in 1st and chirp hard on the 1-2 shift. Where's the love for the II's !!!

Seriously, though. Spinning the tires is just wasting precious forward movement. But, to kill the tires in an automatic, an aftermarket stall converter will destroy the tires in record time.

I took traction control off and it spun pretty bad finally lol but what do you guys think about the 4.7 sec 0-60? Pretty good?

I have a GTPP and I have found that unless I get on the throttle while releasing the clutch mine just wants to go like hell. No tire spin or anything just gut wrenching acceleration. Absolutely no complaints here. I can break the tires free when I want but I love having a Mustang that can actually accelerate from a stop.
