Default racecraft mustang, does anyone here have one?

I drove it at the dealership and wasn't too impressed however I didn't get on it because it wasn't my vehicle. I can say it didn't take off like mine or had the power but I do have the 4.10 gears and this car has the 3.31. It does however have a supercharger. I don't recall ever reading about anyone here with one. Though I have seen a couple in my area. Please come forward if you own one and tell me what you think.

Either everybody is busy or no one has one. Probably both.

Yesterday I went to Palmetto Ford in Charleston, South Carolina and they had this beautiful racecraft mustang painted grabber yellow with a glassback roof. 52,000 dollars. Everything I seen there was 40 plus thousand. I had visions of getting a new mustang one day but the more I see the more I realize that I should be grateful to even have one at all with the prices sky rocketing. The boner thing all to this is my car is paid off next November. When the suspension goes south I want to get the Ford Race Pack suspension and maybe later I can have the engine rebuilt. Times are tough.

There was a black one at our local dealership, along with 2 Saleen Es. They had a KR at one time, but I don't know what happened to it.

Hey Daniel, I have not had the opportunity to drive one, but now that I am hearing how it went for you, I am kinda not as impressed... though I do love how the GrabberOrange one looks... Kinda partial to that one...

I have a Racecraft and I love it. Its got the Saleen performance and suspension without any of the body kits. Rated at 420 crank HP, but its more like 440ish(dyno's at about 390HP to the wheels). It had the blue 39# injectors and upgraded airbox. With just an intake and retune from JDM, they claim around 450WHP. From there, you could do a pulley swap, extreme intake, etc and be close to around 500HP. I'm leaving mine stock right now. The car handles great for a mustang. 50k is a lot for it, but you're paying for the glassroof. Its a great buy at low $30s however. If you have any other questions, PM me.

EDIT: here's a pic of mine
