[QUOTE="PushinTheLimit, post: 10402817, member: 44792"] Would I start over with a mustang for road racing? Answer for me is no. I had an 04 cobra that was fairly close to stock. I started off doing drag racing and later autocrossing with it and the car did fine for those two types of racing. Wasn't the fastest at either, but it was fun for me to learn in with that car. But once the open track bug bit me and I started to look into how much it would cost me to build the cobra into a track car... that's when I sold it. Also, I didn't want to deal with forced induction on the track as this also helped in my decision to go with an LSX powered car. I've always loved the vette's... the C5 came out when I got into cars so that's always been a dream car for me. And being that there were some good deals on old C5Z T1 cars, it just fit me well and the wealth of knowledge behind the cars was another plus for me. Not that the mustang doesn't have that too, but the vette was just my calling. I know that mod for mod... most well driven close to stock C5Z's will outrun just about any mustang. They are two different classes of cars so a more fair comparison would be mustang vs. camaro vs. trans-am vs. challenger vs. gto, etc. I do plan to pick up another mustang sometime soon and use it for daily driver/autocross/t&t drag racing type of car. My vette is for road racing duty only. [/QUOTE]
