first time down the 1/4 (2005 mustang GT)

[lindermant]

Very nice times out of your bolt-on 3V!! I saw your car at the track rental. I had a '11 Race Red 3.7 Mustang.

:beer:

and thanks again for PM'ing details on your 3.7 setup - great write up on Lund's blog!

And those fit on the stock 17in rims? or did you have those widened?

Wow thanks. I was looking at those tires but thought they would be too wide for the stock rim. Doesnt look like they bulge or anything. Ill probably have those replace my worn NT05R.

glad you got your car back out there Mark, your 12.2 is nothing to sneeze at! You'll be in the 11's before you know it :banana:

hit MIR's test and tune last night (08nov). DA late in the night was amazing:

I was hoping for some killer times, but the best I could muster was a pair of 12.4's. I did manage to drop my 60' times from 1.67 to 1.65

I moved my LCA's to the middle hole on my BMR relocation brackets, otherwise the car was set up as shown below:

-weight with driver/gear 3680 lbs
-front struts set to full loose
-rear shocks set to +3 clicks (change from my previous best)
-rear tires @ 18psi
-launching at around 6000rpm

I think I need to bump up my rear tire pressure just a bit, and leave off the rev limiter.

I'm probably done testing for the year. Winter mods include a bit of weight reduction (goal is to drop around 200 lbs) and a set of skinny front wheels/tires.

shaved 52 lbs off the front end with these wheels/tires!
