Great times. Maybe I should let a real driver drive my car and get a respectable time. BTW I suck at launching and have never pulled a 1.7 60ft with awd. Great 60ft for your power and tire set-up. Please don't ask me what I run cause I suck and the car has a real good time in it w/o me driving it.

Practice,practice,practice and you will improve. You probably need to slip the clutch on launch.

[Alex_96Cobra]

that is simply amazing! I didnt know you could trap 109 with a 298 RWHP car. Are you doing any weight savings? Excellent times!!!!! And that is one hell of a beautiful car:thumbsup:

Alex, I took the spare tire and jack out of the back, the weld xp's save 6lbs on each wheel, aluminum driveshaft, and 1/4 tank of gas. I weighed at E-town before at 3540 with those weight savings and me in the car.

Man, those are some great times...but what i really gotta say, or actually thank you for is helping me find the best looking rims for my 03 Mach1 ...car looks awesome man.....sorry for stealing the rim idea...but i live in FL which is far away from you so it shouldn't be a problem

 

[Coiled-up-GT]

this is a very nice car. are those times naturally aspirated? if they are, that is badass.

the only question in my mind, is with the sixty foot. 1.72 for having 4.30's is not too impressive. my buddy has one just like yours, except he has some Bogart wheels on his. He only has an h-pipe and mufflers and his sixty foot is the same as yours, but with the stock 3.55's. question out there is, do gears really help out the mach1's or do they kill the car? he once ran a 12.80 @110 mph with a DA of 5200 ft. on a 125 shot he has gone 11.60's...badass car though Peter! I just don't know what gear to go with on mine.

I will get a better 60' when I get a handle on it. I've had 3.55's ,4.10's and now 4.30's, hands down 4.30's are the best, I can't speak for your friend, but my car ran that time in 80 degree temp's and a head wind. I expect better on the next outing. All my runs have been N/A.
