hey guys, i'm BACK..
 

not and a Chevy or a Buick but in a 2012 Mustang GT.. picked up a auto (for drag racing) brand new, a little over a week ago. she just turned 500 miles and i'm heading to Irwindale Thursday to get some base runs.

Parts on the way are.. 373 gears, GT500 muffs, Roush Grille.
parts ABOUT to be ordered... SCT tune, full header back system, CAI and a BLOWER by spring time..

looking for mid 10's in the 1/4 and still get low 20's mpg.

in the dealership lot.


the next day 5% tint with 35% tint windshield,

Great choice, hope you're not looking for 10's with your warranty intact though.

Welcome back. Nice wheels esse.

good choice :D

What supercharger are you going to run?

Hopefully the eddy

are you going to the cruise this weekend?

Love the car. That thing is going to be a beast.

hahahaha..my warranty will be out the window before i make my first car payment lol..

thanks everyone.. i will try to make next months meet. i'm working in a new cepartment at work which makes me work weekends..

Nice choice. We should line them up I will be at Irwindale tomorrow running also. The weather is expected to be low 70's which is perfect. I say you run 8.3-8.5 thats what I have seen from the stock 5.0 crowd out at irwindale.

come track me down..

I hope he runs faster then that. I ran an 8.7 in my bone stock 5.0 fox with a 1.99x 60'

Slip the shit out of the clutch and i see you kissing 7's

oh and with the Vortech I get about 23 mpg highway.

Not with your foot in it lol

You ran 8.7 in a bone stock fox at irwindale? :huh:

ya lol that number drops quick if I get on it a lot. Mostly it is the boost a pump. I was getting 16 hwy mpg max at first but Vortech altered the tune and put on the boost a pump and its much better on gas now.

Yup, even my girlfriends stock 07 auto ran 8.4x's with bolt ons

took the car to the track tonight, to get some base runs before some parts get here next week. right off the street without a cool down she went 8.42 at 85mph with 2.0 60ft.. over 5 runs tonight that was the slowest and the quickest was the last 8.37 at 86mph with a 1.98 60ft.. not bad base times, now let the mods start..

track photos..

Did you air down the tires?

Yeah, the pressure on the street tires were 35psi.. I turned them down to 26psi..

Not at all. In my manual H&C 82 Vette, my best was 8.312@90.890 with a 2.096 60'.

my gears will be here next week and i still have to get a hand held tuner. also need to get some sticky tires.. money isn't coming in fast to pay for the parts lol..

Hello 7's...

i'm thinking 7.5's or better.. i'm still hoping for 24mpg too :)

parts started arriving today..

Wait, your windshield is tinted??

Yes 35 on windshield and 5% on the others..

Wow, any night driving issues? down in SUNdiego it may be worth looking into...

nope i love it, wish i tinted the windshield on all my cars before.. its great.

all the parts are here so i can start installing. i had to wait due to the H pipe not coming quickly and my tuner having programmed everything with the H..

C&L race intake.


muffs, H pipe and tuner.(install tomrrow)


373 gears.


installed a Roush grille also.


going to order some lowering springs and a rear wing shortly. also a set of slicks for the track :)

just went 8.08 at 90mph with a 1.97 60ft.. still on stock street tires and 3.08 rear gears :)

What's the wing for if you're just dragging? Or is it just a small cosmetic wing?

Its the Roush wing.. The car is also going to be entered into car shows also over the summer, so she has to look good :)

was that at irwindale?

offroad H huh? :) got mine recently too, just need to get the rear O2s turned off before I install it. Cant stand the check engine light being on all the time.

you should get one of these once your blown. cheap and worth every penny

What are you doing with the stock mufflers?

gave them to the guy that installed the H pipe for me.. even trade lol.

yes that was at Irwindale.. best 60ft on street tires was a 1.93, but the second gear shift killed me on that run.

yes i wanted until i had a SCT programmer before i put the H on.

got her some new shoes...

Race stars, very nice.

weld RT-S.. racestars no way lol..
