I almost bought one myself, and if it wasnt due to a dealer markup I'd probably be driving one now, and the fact I test drove a Cobra didnt help either.

Im just going by word of mouth on this though, for I'v never seen a mach1 run in person, but the norm, from what iv heard, is anywhere from 13.2 to 13.5 for the Mach1. Not too shabby in the least IMO. The 03 Mach1 deffiantly lives up to the name.

They look the same from the back. But running next to them the rims a bit funky looking when they are spinning. Front u can notice by looking at the lower bumper.

$h*t the 4V is sweat. Had the 01Cobra & only takes a few more mods to get the RWHP to 300.

looks like some nice times there tomcat. Good luck with that and post some more times when you do some more mods. I am very curious as to how fast these things can get.

Got to Love the Mach....When I saw the first concept mach I knew that I'd have to have one. I waited a few months, and then decided to buy a 2002 GT. (couldn't wait.) I was not sure they were going to produce the car. Well long story short, My Pop decided to buy one a Dark Shadow Greay (DSG).

I had the oppertunity to run that pony. Was not pretty Folks....From a roll I stayed with him 1st. He started to pull. Second gear..one car lenth in front. I hit third...he was 2 cars up. Third gear, Oh well....I shut it down at the top of fourth gear 120mph he was still pulling away. I would say he beat me four and half car lengths may be more. Now my car has a few mods. 3.73 gears, K&N, Bassani x-pipe with flows. My 02 GT feels fast but that day I was hummbled. So dont try to bust a Mach...He will chew ya up and spit ya Out.

Mach 1: Tourq-thrust off my GT. with Nitto drag in rear, 555 up front. K&N.

Did not get to run at Hallsvile, they had trouble with the light tree. No et slips would have been available. I will post times the next time I get out.
