I am intrested in getting a Mach 1 or a GT but I want to know what the difference between the two are? Thanx

GTs are hardly even in the same category as far as i'm concerned. I haven't seen a GT at the track here break into 13s yet except for one with spray. I ran [email protected] the other day, which isn't bad for a 6000' DA. I'm hoping for 12s when I make the roadtrip to San Antonio this winter. There was an '05 GTO that couldn't run better than 14.1 here this last Friday
If you have the option, go for the Mach. See the above post for differences or do a search on both the Mach and GT. The difference between a 2V and 4V is quite noticeable, believe me.

I like the Mach over the standard GT. You can make the GT pretty fast but you have the 4v motor to start with in the Mach.
I don't run 14.1s . . .

But here, the air sucks so bad that cars run a lot worse than they should. There's a guy here that I raced not too long ago, has a C5 Corvette auto with heads, cam, and long tubes and he ran a 13.2 at the track. He said stock he only ran 14.6 . Me and him went from a dig. I had a ****ty launch, revved it too high. We were even off the line, but he pulled on me by the time I hit the end of 2nd. Through a quarter mile, he only had me by like 3 cars or so. And thats with my subs, spare, and all that junk in the back. I'd like to see what happens when I get a Good launch and have less crap in the rear to slow me down

Ijust wanted to add that a mach 1 is a much better platform to mod than a gt. For every mod I do to get better times, u could do the same mod and always be faster...Plus the mach's just look down right mean!mclean2pakid said:I am intrested in getting a Mach 1 or a GT but I want to know what the difference between the two are?
