Mostly a lurker, but decided to share the few true runs I had in my car.
My car has a AirAid CAI with the venturi insert (will get tuner as funds allow), Steeda shifter bracket, and roushe axles.
1st run -
GT500 - Older gentleman driving said he wants to run a 5.0. His car is stock other than 305 Nittos in the rear.
He's wealthy so he has a huge peice of land with good asphalt.
From the dig - 1st race he roasted his tires all the way through 2nd, so we were even until he slammed 3rd then he pulled on me pretty good.
2nd dig same thing but he misses 2nd so I pull on him and he doesn't catch up until the top of 4th.
3rd dig he gets his launch right and starts pulling as soon as he shifts and at the top of 4th he's about 3 cars ahead of me.
I launched at about 2500 rpms each time.
Roll
1st run we decided to start at 20 mph and he gave me the hit, we were pretty even until 3rd and then he started to pull, got me about by 3 cars when we let off at the top of 4th
2nd we were going 75 mph, I was in 3rd he gave me the hit and as soon as he got in it he started pulling me and by 120 mph+ that shelby was gone.
He was kind enough to also give me a ride in it and god damn....I thought my 5.0 pulled....
Against the SS.
This is my buddy, he's a hard core Chevy guy and said even with his bald tires he'd walk me so bad I would go and trade my mustang in for a Camaro.
We did 2 dig races
First dig my passenger shouted 1 2 3 go and we went on go. I spun my tires and as soon as I hit 2nd he was in my rear view mirror and rapidly getting smaller. I let off because he wasn't catching up, I had about 4 cars on him. He said he bogged so we ran again.
2nd We went on go again and this time he admittedly had a better launch so were even till I slammed 3rd and then I started pulling put about 2 1/2 cars on him by the top of 5th.
We did 1 roll race, 75mph I was in 3rd, he honked it and we were even till I slammed 4th then I started inching away.
Was good fun and he quieted down afterwards.:rockon: He has full exhausts header back, CAI and 295 in the rear.
Thanks for reading!
