Default My first 1/4 times and vid

Well it has been spoken about for awhile, I finally made it out to the track on Friday. A few of you were interested in my times, so I am posting it. It was a lot of fun, it was me, two slightly modded z28's, and a GTO. Enough about that, here is the info about my car and the times.

1999 Ford Mustang V6

Mods:
TMA Turbo kit
Upgraded fuel system
(everything else is bone stock)

My boost is set at 7.2psi, I don't have posi, my rear end sucks, I was spinning each time at the launch. I am dissapointed with the times, I should be doing much better. And the fact that it was my frist time, I was nervous as hell, messed up a few times, crappy reaction time, crappy 60'. Anyway I beat the GTO when we raced. Here are the times, in order of my runs. I am looking forward to the next time I go out, I need to first figure out how to get the power to the ground so that I can get my high 12's that I want.



Vid: The quality is not that great, due to the camera we used. A good race to watch is at the 2 min mark, between me and the GTO. Enjoy.

My first track run

if your still rocking a 7.5" rear end now owuld be a good time to find a used 8.8 out of a mustang GT. the posi and better gears will help you out alot. but awsome times man with 110mph traps, if you can get those down to the 2.0 or less range thats puts you deep into the 12's.
