03 Lightning Vs Stang
I know we don't recommend or condone street racing but I thought I would post the results of a drag race I had with a co-worker this afternoon at 2 different stop lights we lined up at. I own a 01 GT convert with auto,Hypertech programmer,welded in flowmasters,Accufab plenum and 75mm throtle body and stock airbox with K and N and silencer removed and 3.73 gears. My co-worker owns a 03 stock lightning. The first light from a dead stop the lightning jumped me by a half car length and they stayed even up to 80mph. The second stop light was from a 20mph roll and I jumped him by 1/2 length and stayed ahead up to 80mph. Neither one of us had any traction issues. I don't know what the lightning runs at the track,my car ran 14.3-14.4 before I installed the throtle body and plenum and may run 14.2 now? P.S. we raced on a county highway and not on a city street.
