I love both cars but the srt-6 is not a drag car it more for as fun road course IF you want a fast 1/4 mile str-6 get ready to spent a lot of money!!
Drive what you have and be Happy from my model T to my 427 sc cobra.

I'm sorry, but a simple underdrive pulley and a few other low dollar mods are NOT going to make the non-supercharged Mustang faster then the SRT-6.
And who cares about a straight axle car when your talking about low dollar modded cars? I know I don't.
I'd rather have my independent at this level of performance, its better handling and it still pulled a 1.8 sec 60' on the STOCK tires...lets see the Mustang do that.
Don't get me wrong, I love Mustangs, I've owned 3 in my time, one of which was a 93' Cobra...but the SRT-6 is by far the best and fastest car I've owned.
Here's my latest slip from the 1/4 mile track...but I guess 12.6 isn't good enough for drag car standards these days...
The funny part is...this run just so happened to be against a 99' or Mustang GT with loud exhaust... lol.
