yah, w/ professional drivers, i never believe stats.[/quote]

I dont understand. You mean because there si somethig published that says the mustang is faster. It is, I have seen on the Stangnet that there are guys with stock GT's running as low as 13.85. In florida thats hard to do.



I will try this winter. I did my 14.2 in the middle of the summer on a 90° night.



Same with my TII I ran it on a really hot night. I cannot wait for winter.





I agree I never believe published #'s on a car. That was under ideal conditions with a professional driver doing tons of runs to get the launch perfect.

Well i haven't been to tracks yet, waiting for car to be done B) , but i've done alot of street racing and i've beat lots of cars that are supposed to be so fast! i just don't believe the hype anymore.

 

Example - My bro followed me to the track in my GT Mustang the night I ran my TII. I finished running a 13.08 and we were heading home.



We lined up at a red light and raced from it up a 2 mile bridge. I bogged down on the launch and he toasted me. I shut down at 70 MPH (didn't want a ticket) and he still had me by 2 cars. I was running him down and would have passed him by the time we got to 100. BUT - He beat me in a short race. The kind of street race you see everyday.



I know my TII is faster though.

 

true true, but i have many friends with stat wise faster cars, and we have raced a gazzilion times, and i win.

 

there's so many variables but generally in a drag race its three things:



HP to weight ratio

traction

driver



You probably are just a better driver than them if there cars are properly tuned. :bigok:

 

its all about driving... the stats that come up online for a stock na with 160 hp are a 15.4 1/4... althugh id assume that was when new
