[QUOTE="Robert M, post: 5847861, member: 9628"] No contest, if they (03/04's) run 12.40's all day long, run after run, you are right and I am wrong. I do not see many other 03/04 owners boasting of those kind of times in stock as delivered to the dealership form, especially after a few runs when heat takes its toll. But if that is the case, the 03/04 is definitly "quicker" from point A to point B vs. the repeated 12.50's achieved by MM&FF on an 00R, but 159mph (factory limited) is definitely not "faster" than 170+mph no matter what two cars you are comparing. To me comparing 12.46 as you have posted, to 12.51 MM&FF (3/2001, pgs.52-57) posted on an 00R is hardly a difference in 1/4 mile times between the two cars, is it? Being that close, can it realistically be said that the 03/04 is infact consistantly faster/quicker than the 00R? or are they about even in the 1/4 mile as I have said at the beginning of this discussion about "faster"? Another question could be..............are high 12.40's for the 03/04 and low 12.50's for the 00R "normal" everyday times for these cars? I have not seen that to be true. Between the two of them they usually seem to run in the 12.7's on a good pass and each can run slower on a not so good pass, even into the low 13's. I will not be responding to this subject other than my reply below to Wheelhopper, since we are on the For Sale/Wanted thread. I will be happy to discuss it further in a new thread related to these two cars, if one is started. R [/QUOTE]
