That car should have ran high 11's. Mustang should run 13's off spray.

Should and did are 2 totally different things, i doubt it would have hit 11's let alone a low 12, its FWD no traction and heavy, now the mustang, ur in the ball park, stang should be about 13.5 13.8

You really have no reason to speak on the matter. Knowledge is key. Your saying a basic stock GT with Spray will run mid 13s... That is about right.

But considering the GP at the heaviest weights in a meager 3,346lbs vs the heavier Mustang GT w/5spd @ 3,375lbs, you can't say its really heavy. A stock vette is only a couple hundred lbs lighter, it comes down to power and traction.

His GTP was cammed, intercooled, and spraying too, there are plenty of 11 sec GTPs out there, 12s aren't hard to get to with basic bolt-ons and a good driver.

Actually WITH the spray my Mustang should be in the 12's. My friend Scott has an IDENTICAL set up in his Mustang, Same year and everything, except he has Shorty headers and I have Longtubes. He runs 13.20's without Nitrous. So I'm pretty sure I know what I'm talking about when it comes to drag times. Also my GTP WOULD have ran 11's. WITHOUT Nitrous. Car was tuned by the world record M90 car holder and same exact set up he had when he ran 11.80's on STOCK weight.

Going to the track today. Got my helmet ready. Even though no Tech, still bringing it just in case.

Re: BoostenGTP's Purty Rustang.

Well traction was a BIG issue for me, and a lot of the mustangs today. No one could break into the 13's when they all usually run consistent low 13's. I ran a 14.4 @ 100mph. shiit 60'. Not very happy at all with my times, no one was. Friend of mine shattered his rear axle on his Mach 1, and Zach with the Turbo GTP that should run 9's ran a 10.50 on 10psi and turned the boost up to 20psi on the next run and blew bottom end straight through the front of the block. Pics to come.

That doesn't happen often.
 
Re: BoostenGTP's Purty Rustang.

The car could handle it, what happened was his vacuum line he had running to his fuel pressure regulator popped off when he launched at 20psi, causing him to lose fuel pressure and when that happens, we all know what goes wrong. KABOOM. Got everything tore down to the block. Block comes out tomorrow with the trans. Can't unbolt the torque converter because the motor is locked up so we can't spin the Converter to unbolt it. So trans has to come with it. We were dead tired so we called it a night. Should have the block out tomorrow to take a look at what's in the oil pan. There's a 4" hole in the front of the block lol.

No lol, he's swapping in another motor and will have it running by Friday for Test and Tune lol. Pretty much the car made 600whp for 4 seconds. LOL then boom. If the vacuum line didn't pop off, car would have ran a 9 second pass easily.
