Here are some pics from the track Sunday with the Race Stars on my '11 V6.

The wheels are 17x4.5 and 17x9.5 (7" BS) with M&H radials on the front and 26x11.5x17 MT ET STreet bias ply tires on the rear.

There is also a couple of rolling shots of the car on the way home with the Race Stars on the front and the '09 GT/CS wheels (my everyday wheels) on the rear.

I like the 3.7 Badge,,, 13.3 @ 104.5 not too shabby :)
V6 3.7 nice engine ,,I have an Edge Sport with paddle shifter

Thanks :beer:

I agree, the 3.7 is an impressive motor. We have an '11 Edge also, but ours isn't a Sport model so it has the 3.5 V6.

That is a fast 6 banger! Great times. We would have been thrilled with those times back in the day on a Fox. LOL.

Several people at the track have really been surprised at what kind of times my car and my son's car ('12 V6) have been turning.

I remember running a 13.50 @ 100 MPH in my first '87+ Fox back in the day and was really happy at how fast it was!!

Does a 13 second V6 have enough trouble with traction to warrant putting on bigs and littles? :??:

Yes, if you want to maximize performance!!

With 3.73 gears and the manual transmission it spins hard from a 1st gear roll on the street and hard on the 1-2 shift at the track.

And BTW, it is only .04 away from being a 12 second V6!!
