All you need is traction and you will beat those times Blake. Once I do the cams and spray I hope to run 11.50's.
I ran across a young Mustang racer last night running an identical car to mine only he has a procharger with an intercooler. He is putting down 435 rwhp but was only running 12.70's due to traction. He was running street radials and could not even launch at 2,000 rpm. His friends about soiled themselves when I ran 13.02 with an automatic and 250 hp. I always get a kick out of people coming up to me and asking what shot I'm spraying or what type of blower I'm running. I open the hood and all you see is my plenum and TB. I r an a 1972 Mustang notchback with an old fart like me driving and beat him by 4 car lengths. He followed me to the pits and we talked Stangs for a while. Turns out he bought the car brand new in high school and has kept it ever since. He had just slipped a roller cam into it and was dissapointed that he was only running 13.5's. You gotta love these new mod motors! 13 flat with stock, heads, cams, block with 281 ci.
