Racing Q: Mustang VS CL
Well obviously a GT would win, but I wondering if anyone here has beaten a manual V6. So 3.0 vs V6, who would win? I'm talking about a 2006 btw.

One custom CL
I have killed V6 stangs by numerous car lengths. They have a quick launch which im sure the 3.0 will a disadvantage but you should take it no prob in the long run.

Mom why is there two?
Yes I have spanked many of these cars but if you are stock remember at a roll like the guy said elephants. Even the v8 cars are slowwhat are they like a high 14 second car?

People who buy stangs with a V6 need to be shot. I don't give a f**k who they are. V6 mustangs feel slow as hell. The new are a little bit better but the older ones had no balls what so ever. The only people who should drive V6 mustangs are females under 18.

a 94 5 speed v6 will not beat a 3.0 stock for stock.. and im talking 0-100 have some faith! 
lol i really dont think they can hang with us, im not saying that a 3.0 can dust it but it will beat it, plus who cares, both cars cost under 5 grand each if that and racing is overrated. the cl is will dust it in sexiness so case closed

idk what you guys are talking about...i beat 3 stangs since i got my 3.0... the first was a V6 when i was stock engine-wise, the second was a GT with my V2, and the most recent one was another V6.... idk what their mods are since after i cut off at about 115mph, they all did a flyby and did not stop...

the 3.0 j series in the cl is way more powerful than the c series motor in the legend. i raced one when i was stock and he had a 5 speed and i smoked him by atleast 6 cars. i had almost 1/2 car on him before i got to vtec. but the cl is a slow car... faster than a is300 but still slow.

PRE 99 v6 stangs are slow the cl would win
99-04 manual v6 are about 15.3-15.5 w/ a good driver. autos are about high 15's-16. idk but that tranny sucks
05+ are 15.0-15.3
hope that pretty much answers the question. stock cl's run high 15's right?
i have a 00 v6 stangs manual and joined the message board to ask pretty much the same question. the cl i will be racing has intake, exhaust and a header. maybe a chip. what are my chances?
edit: just saw u won. nice, i wanna see how i can hold up against a 05+ ive raced one on the highway 3 runs and won all 3 times. but ive never raced one from the line.

i had a friend in a auto v6 04 and i would give him .5 second head starts i probally raced him 50 times and he beat me 1 time i fucked up the launch w/ the head start i couldnt catch him. if i ever see another v6 on the road that wants to race me i always give them the jump.
im waiting for my neighbor to get back and i think he wants to race. he is confident his car will kill me. idk

well we raced, sorta. at the light a car pulled out in front of me, i had a bad launch but i was catching up. we both shut down only got to like 30-40 mph
since we missed the light we went from a roll, i waited til he took off b4 i jump on it and i took him had about 1/2 car on him.
my gas pedal is messed up and almost on the floor board right now, and i had a 5-6 ft xmass tree in my car.
