My son (FoolnYa) and I went to Virginia Motorsports Park Friday night for some 1/4 mile racing.

We invited the 'supposed' NA 3.7 Mustang record holder down from WV to run with us. He has posted a video saying his car ran a 12.77 while being NA. There are many people that think he may have had a small shot of nitrous on his car when he claims to have run the 12.77.

My fastest to date was (4) 12.78's @ 109+ MPH a couple of weeks ago at Fayetteville (NC) Motorsports Park.

At the end of the night I was able to set the record with a run of 12.63 @ 108.86 MPH. My son also beat the old record with a 12.71 @ 109 MPH. The guy from WV made four passes in his Sterling Gray '12 automatic 3.7 Mustang and ran 13.20's and 13.30's. I will let people decide why he was 4 to 5 tenths off of his 12.77 time. The DA was about +700 at the start of the night and got down to sea level at the end of the night.

Here is a video from the track. My car is the Race Red ' 11 3.7 and my son's is the Black '12 3.7. Unfortunately I ran my record run on the first pass of the night and my son and I were in the staging lanes together and my youngest son who does the videoing for us hadn't got to the track yet.

Congrats, that is one crazy fast V6!

Thanks!! :beer:

Still alot more in it if you can get that 60 ft down.

I agree it has some more left in it. I had a best 60 foot last year of 1.722 when I had completely stock suspension except for the J&M LCA's. I added a UPR UCA and mount and a J&M adjustable panhard bar and set the pinion angle at -2 3/4 degrees over the winter.

I was hoping to get solidly into the 1.6's on my 60 foots which would put me into the 12.50's in good weather.

cool! what's up with the taillights flashing?

Thanks :beer:

It has something to do with the tail lights being LED lights, that when they are on and the camera films them it makes it look like they are strobe lights. They are just stock 2011-2012 tail lights.

Congrats to you both! :beer:

Never imagine the day a N/A Bolt-On V6 Mustang would be running about the same time as my cammed LT1 Camaro. FML LOL!
