It still spins me out that there is a shedload of mid 14 second cars being driven around by unsuspecting xr6 owners 8-) lookout at the lights :shock:
Made me look at the xr6 totally different :wink:

why? they have the same motor gearbox combos as the xt's. if anything they should be slower with the body kits and lether & sound

I havent heard of anyone running a stock fg xt down the strip so i cant possibly compare the two, although it would be fun to hire a fg xt and take it to the drags :D

as fiftyone said, XT is an xr6 minus the body kit and suspension. If anything the xt would be quicker as it's probably lighter and has softer rear springs that would make it launch better...

Shannon, Wednesday is latenight trading at the dealers... Should pop into Ford in Rocko (5 mins from the Motorplex) and see if you can take an XT for a couple hours test drive. Just have to work out a good story as to why you'd need it so long...

there are alot of cars faster than the phase 3 ho most modern falcons would be quicker

And the reason you can't get a 14 out of your fg xr6 is because u don't take the handbrake off of u just plain out can't drive

Looking at what your driving bradley, your opinion doesnt really count, have you realised that falcons have changed since the pieces of history you are driving. Didnt they used to park them outside of pyramids? Who thinks that a 6 speed vs a 5 speed auto is worth a second over a 1/4 mile. Yes the 6 speed is quicker but by about a second...... nah.

an extra gear make a differance obviously or they wouldn't have done it. And what I'm driving has nothing to do with you not being able to get a 14

Grab a box of kleenex and sit in your out dated wrecks and think about the good old days. I just made a comment about a post, your the one that started pulling punches. Lighten up !
