Default Bama Performance sets record for WORLDS FASTEST NA 2015 Mustang GT!


We're very excited to announce that Bama Performance just took our Black 2015 Performance Pack equipped GT down the track and nailed an 11.2 @ 121mph on their first pass setting a world record for the fastest bolt on 2015 Mustang GT!

As soon as we received our fleet of S550's Bama Performance started tearing into the Coyote as well as our EcoBoost and the proof is in the pudding that Bama is here to dominate the 2015 Mustang!

What's really impressive is that they we're able to do this with stock IRS bushings as well as stock Halfshafts leading us to believe that Ford's IRS is actually pretty stout! Here's some of the mods that were used:

Full Exhaust
JLT Cold Air Intake
Bama 93 Track Tune
Custom Suspension Mods
Mild Weight Reduction
Slicks and Skinnies


Rest assured this isn't the last we're going to be hearing of Bama's efforts on our 2015 Mustang's and I can only anticipate when they'll be in the 10's!

Stay Tuned and for all things Mustang keep it right here at AmericanMuscle!

Wow... impressive. That's a good second and a half with bolt-ons and a tune. Is the "track tune" something you could daily drive without a hit to the engine's life? Or is it a maxed out tune on the ragged edge?

Gen-Thanks! As per running the Track Tune it's absolutely safe to do so regularly and in no way is this maxed out by any stretch of the imagination. Granted it's apples to oranges I ran the "race" tune on my 2v and 3v Bullitt's for years at a time. No hiccups at all!

Man that is great, if you get it into the 10's N/A with just bolt ons that will be crazy stuff.

Wow, great job Alex. Pretty impressive with a tune and tires - I see something about suspension mods so I assume that you are testing out something new?

Didn't you break the stock half shafts right after making this post?

Hey Sorry about the delay! Here was the original pass:


Here's the latest pass with DriveShaftShop Half Shafts and their Carbon Driveshaft as well. Let me know if you have any other questions!

Moose-That's correct! If we didn't break something then we we're trying hard enough!
