and after all is said and done you're not driving a mid-engined v10 that will continue to appreciate in value.

So what if he is comparing his car to a stock car? The Ford GT is one of the fastest production cars in the world. This was a street race and he beat him fairly. It does not matter what mods the Ford could have or how fast it could be or should have been... Not to mention the fact that it is completely irrelevant whether or not the car will appreciate in value. Why over-analyze a street race? It's ridiculous!
Im just glad the s was made in mexico with front engine v16 and has a horrible residual value.
mmmmmm pcp tastes like skittles

congrats on your win but please don't spare us the sentiment that your car only cost $32000 if you're beating this car. add up all of the money you've spent on mods and then after all of that you're comparing a car that is completely stock compared to your car. i have a feeling the GT would have kicked the crap out of my $32000 car. and after all is said and done you're not driving a mid-engined v10 that will continue to appreciate in value.

I feel betta now, thxs!! 
I cant say if it was stock or not. I had my top down and slowed up hoping to talk to him. But it seemed like he was a little embarrassed....lol If im not mistaken, stock they are 550 hp @ 3350lbs. Im pushing almost 500rwhp @ 2800lbs. I think my car can hold its own even if he wasnt stock.
