    2013-14 automatic Mustangs have FULL manual mode. Either floor it in Drive right before saying “Go” or put the transmission in Sport mode, use +/- to get in the right gear, then floor it on “Go” and put it in Drive right after, so the car can shift for you. It’s better than manually shifting the automatic because of the delay after you press the + button, unless you’re very familiar with it and know exactly when to press the + without shifting early or hitting the rev limiter. The roll race with the C6 should be much closer.

    Huge bang for the buck, that's why i went with a 2011 C6 Grand Sport and Procharged it, cammed, LT headers and straight exhaust, added e85 support, upgraded the fuel system, bigass intercooler, pfadt race suspension, 345mm Toyo R888R's on the rear and 285's on the front, and more. End result is 1,100 hp on E85, 900 on 93 octane. Car was $33k when I got it, had some mods already. Added 5k or so more. Lots of performance for under 50k. Just got a 2020 Mustang GT Premium PP1, races aren't even close. Still fun though, and with the magneride the GT doesn't annihilate my spine like the C6 GS + Pfadt race suspension.

    That auto really stuffed the C5. I ran consistent 13.8's with a manual car at 4400 feet elevation with a 120k miles still on the factory clutch and factory suspension that was in terrible shape. My tires were brand new Firestone Firehawk indy 500's. Yes it was a track but it was not remotely sticky.

    Fun video. Cool cars, all. I suspect if you learned the shift points for each gear on the C6, and got your shifts quicker, it would have come out on top. Honestly though, I am just pleased to see young adults that can drive manual at all. Both my children can.
    Keep having fun. Looking forward to future videos. This is the first of your's that I have encountered. Will check out some others.

There’s a massive difference between yours and a later manual transmission cars. There’s even a huge difference between yours and a later automatic with the 3.15 gears.

    Great fun! You’re making me feel good about my decision to keep my garage queen 6sp manual 2013 GT ragtop! The body lines say Mustang’s Greatest Hits, the color is Grabber Blue, and I’ve put every one of its 62,000 miles on it since new. Your 5.0 is trapping about right for an auto plus the heat and altitude. People who could hit third with the mt-82 trapped their cars in the 109-111 range bone stock and closer to sea level. I really thought the LS2 was going to slay the Coyote, they all put up a good show! So I mentioned keep vs sell…Ford says my eruption green two door Bronco Outer Banks Lux pkg is scheduled Aug 22…and my garage holds two cars. Looks like the F150 is going to get a new owner. The Mustang stays!

    Too bad all 3 weren't stick shift to compare but then you run into the issue of the driver being the deciding factor in shifting the vehicle correctly. Ya have some things to learn on shifting a performance vehicle Tobby, those shifts can run about as fast as an automatic if you time your clutch work perfectly with your gear shift. Great prices on them though, nice finds.

After that the vetts we’re I don’t know lack luster to me burn out machines. Only thing I seen that guy lose to was a Camaro iroc z that was probably more modded then my friend tuner. The all wheel difference didn’t matter that day. I will never forget looking over at him and being like dam Danny that Camaro beat you pretty good and it sounded so much cooler doing it lol

    You spun, you should've left the traction control on to see what would've happened or drive a 4th run to see if it made a difference. I'm betting that C6 probably needs a tune for your elevation as well. I would love to see an 08-13 C6 with the LS3 like mine and the 6 speed automatic against the mustang and It would be more of an apples to apples race as well. The LS2 you bought is in great shape from what can be seen here and 25k is about the right price, but you can find LS3 Vettes for that much in great shape for not too many more miles pretty easily. If you put some LS3 heads or had them done and put on a slightly more aggressive cam in that LS2, that's most of the difference between the LS2 and the LS3 engines.
