First time at the track w/ the mach
 
Here's a vid of my fastest time a 13.35. Keep in mind she's basically stock except for a slp catback and drop-in K&N filter. http://media.putfile.com/Swervos-Fir...-in-the-Mach-1

Not too shabby....wasted away that other Mustang

shad0ws 11-30-2005 05:18 AM

Man, you launched really good. Great job...

madmatt 11-30-2005 05:18 AM

Nice run my friend

dannyb785 11-30-2005 08:15 AM

holy balls!!!! what rpm did u launch at? And what tires are you wearin? What was your 60' time? I thought those things ran like a best of 13.5 stock. a 13.35 is insane for just catback and filter

StangGT804 11-30-2005 08:18 AM

good job man!! you did get a great launch!! too bad our tracks are closed for the season! :(

I was launching around 3k letting the clutch slip a little bit. I have BFG KDWS's that came with the car and lowered the pressure to 30psi.

can u also tell me at what rpms you're shifting? I know to get over 100 u need to shift into 4th but i never am sure when to

swervo 11-30-2005 11:55 AM

Im shifting at 7k, because I have a mach. Im still at the top of 3rd when Im going through the traps, due to the 3.55's I have. When I put the 4.10s in I'll probably be shifting into 4th about 100ft or so before the traps.

dannyb785 11-30-2005 11:57 AM

7k????? those things redline at 6!!!!!!!!

Badfish 11-30-2005 02:22 PM

whats the point of redlining?? all cars stop making power beyond a certain rpm, stock gts are usually somewhere around 5k...i dont hink your car is makign any power at 7k


nice run, and cool vid :D

shifting at 7k for him keeps his car in its power band. when you get out of the power band the the engine is working harder to get back into it. which equals to slower times

but his car stops mmaking power way before 7k, therefore staying at 6-7k wont do anything at all, you wont go faster, if you shift right before it quits making power ( to see specifically, youd have to go on a dyno) it will bennifit more, even thogh you lose a little in the shift, you still HAVE to shift


unless it was at the very end of the run i could understand, also that redline is there for a reason :) its dangerous for your motor

yes they are like 5,200, depending stop replying to me with one word dammit! :p

jjtgiants 11-30-2005 05:00 PM

The Mach's redlines and 7k and I promise you my Mach doesn't stop producing power at 5,200....that's the difference between 2 valve engines and 4 valve engines!

That's a damn good time dude.....I have the same tires as you. What other mods are you looking at doing? I've got a Mac Prochamber and Magnaflow Cat back wating to be installed so we'll see how she runs after that and a dyno tune. I've read a ton of stuff on the Mach 1 registry that you need a dyno tune if you do anymore than just a cat back or cold air intake cause the A/F gets way out of wack

He's correct. Manual mach 1's redline is at 7k while the auto mach 1's are at 6k.

I just recieved my MGW shifter, going to put it in this weekend. Also my JLT CAI, I have to pick up at the post office tomorrow and a mac o/r h-pipe is on back order. I will definitely get a tune when I install everything.

Damn, i never knew they made some Machs with automatics.

Great run! And yeah, I've actually seen about HALF auto mach's...pretty suprising.. ;)

well hot dayum! I knew I had seen pics of a mach 1 w/ a redline near 6k. I suppose it makes sense, since its the same engine as the 01 cobras...right?

Samsstang 12-02-2005 01:22 PM

Nice run! Some DRs yo can let that thing rip of the line :rolleyes:

rebelyell 12-03-2005 11:02 PM

Nice run there swervo. What track did you run at? You are making the mostest with that new mach 1 bro. Dam I bet it feels good going from a GT. Mach 1's rule. (not counting cobras). Since you got yours I've seen 2 or 3 mach 1's here in Fayettenam. What? did they have a big Mach 1 sale I didn't hear about . LOL. :D

Nice job on the driving.....having to shift into 4th near the traps with 4.10's is the very reason 4.30's are a much better gear for the 4 valves :) If you really are a serious 1/4 horse then 4.56's should be the gear of chioce :eek:

stang00 12-04-2005 02:36 PM

dayum they make gears like that massive acceleration but hows the gas mileage with those gears wouldn't u be in like 5th gear going 35 for daily driving

Samsstang 12-05-2005 07:56 AM

Off topic! but JayC your car has an awesome stance :eek: like the hood too :cool:
