Now im not suggesting that he beat him as you said it is impossible to beat the stang.

I am suggesting tho that it is completely possible for him to hang up to 50.
Just admit that its possible, now im not saying on paper, with both drivers being the best. Just saying on the street with a young kid not knowning everything about how to drive his car. IT IS POSSIBLE!

Sure it's possible. I covered that in my post. However, it does not mean your truck is capable of hanging with a Mustang at any speed. It means the driver of the truck was better than the driver of the Mustang.

Heck, I could outrun a Top Fuel dragster in the 1/4 mile if the driver was an idiot and didn't know where the gas pedal was. But there is no point in coming here to say "OMG I outran a Top Fuel dragster today!!!" because no one else can expect the same results. It would be a fluke.

I talked to him and he said he missed a shift, instead of putting it into 1st he went into 3rd.

Maybe the GT you raced was the new ones with a Flinstones engine.
