I've yet to race one, but would like to. Agreed if we're both stock, I think I'll take'em.

Which is great for a track car taking a lot of driver error out of the equation.

They would just say that's the Roadrunner motor and not a Coyote. It's the 5.0 that sucks blah blah blah. The Boss is cool because it's limited production numbers blah blah blah..

That is true, that is what happened but it wasn't because Jeff has the faster car. It's because Eric was too busy talkin shit, rather than dialing in his car and learning how to drive it and use the eboost. The car has hardly any timing in it and running enough boost to be able to start tuning on it. He shouldn't have been racing it yet.

He knew what the outcome would be before he did it. He even said that it would be a lose because of how conservative his tune was. I think he's just taking it slow and waiting for the new motor to go in.

What's a roadrunner? I know what an actual roadrunner is, so save that pic for later.

Only had two that wanted to play, and they were both a little ragged out looking but had obnoxious exhaust which seems to be a hallmark of the '03-04 Cobra. Both were from a dead stop and both were handled as you would expect a car with DRs to handle a car with low profile street tires. Maybe it wouldn't have been so easy if it was a rolling dyno like the video, but my coyote is 2-0 versus terminators.

That's what the motor in the Boss is called by the factory.

I thought it was a Looney Toons joke.

No, they really officially called the standard Mustang-spec 5.0 the Coyote, and the Boss-spec 5.0 the Road Runner. The GT500's 5.8 is called the Trinity.

Road Runner: http://www.mustang50magazine.com/tec...2/viewall.html

Trinity: http://www.mustang50magazine.com/tec...8/viewall.html
