As much as I hate breaking up a flaming, I though I throw some facts into the forum



1988 Ford Mustang GT 6.4 15.0

1990 Ford Mustang LX 5.0 6.4 14.9

1991 Ford Mustang GT 7.3 15.6

1992 Ford Mustang LX 5.0 6.2 14.8

1993 Ford Mustang Cobra 5.9 14.5

1993 Ford Mustang GT(auto) 8.0 16.1

1994 Ford Mustang Cobra 6.9 15.3

1994 Ford Mustang GT 6.7 15.1

1995 Ford Mustang 3.8 9.9 17.3

1995 Ford Mustang Cobra R 5.2 13.8

1996 Ford Mustang Cobra 5.5 14.0

1998 Ford Mustang Cobra SVT 5.4 14.0

1999 Ford Mustang Cobra SVT 5.4 13.9

1999 Ford Mustang Convertible V6 8.6 16.5

1999 Ford Mustang GT 5.5 14.1





1987 Mazda RX-7 Turbo 6.6 15.2

1988 Mazda RX-7 Conv. 9.7 17.5

1989 Mazda RX-7 GTU 8.5 16.5

1989 Mazda RX-7 Turbo 6.7 15.1

1990 Mazda RX-7 GTU 8.6 16.7

1990 Mazda RX-7 Turbo II 6.3 14.9

1991 Mazda RX-7 Conv. 8.8 16.7

1991 Mazda RX-7 Infini IV 7.0 14.9

1993 Mazda RX-7 5.5 14.0

1993 Mazda RX-7 R1 5.3 13.9

1994 Mazda RX-7 5.3 14.0

1994 Mazda RX-7 Touring 6.0 14.5

1995 Mazda RX-7 R2 5.3 14.1







As you can see it's close, my stock 90 TII and a stock mustang would be neck and neck, it would all come down to the start. Through the windies though.....

use this to compare all the times from 0-30 up to 0-100 (posted this in the kills section too but this seems like a good place)

one more thing, those numbers next to the mustangs, are they 1/4 times? Because if a 99 GT is running 14.1's stock that means it is beating out 2001 Type-r's and 90% of other cars on the road, which it so isn't. GT's run 15+'s stock. The major challenging mustang is the '03 SVT Cobra running 13.1's and the mach1 running 14.0's.



My friend had an overly modded 5.0, fox body style, that had a fastest run of 14.0, so i don't see a stock one pulling that.



Of course it does depend on what year rx-7 you're looking at:

93 Twin Turbo- 13.9

90 Turbo - 14.9

87 GXL - 16.1



So say you throw a 93 up against a fox body style 5.0 (trying to keep cars years number as close as possible) and keep them both stock the rx-7 should have the edge.



then of course you have to factor in the driver, the racetrack, the weather, and a whole load of things .
