My Sn95 has decent mid range. lol.
Gets off the line like *** unless I don't mind abusing the clutch a bit, but between like 30 and 80 is where I can get up to speed. I raced a friend in an eclipse (99, 4 banger) with intake and full exhaust and a few other mods, and we were even until about 60 then I walked all over his *** above that...
These cars aren't as slow as they seem, but they're not as fast as they should be either...
Alas, my days of attempting to race other cars in my rather stock sixxer are pretty much done. I just auto cross now. Of course my 2nd gear is pretty shot (grinds like a **** when I shift hard) but other than that the car is a tank.

Remember what the numbers are for these cars compared to what's on the market now. This is my first stang and hopefully not my last but she does have a lot of push. But doing this in an auto is an automatic no-no

Well the technical part is that it has 200k+ and still running good. I wasnt braggin, Just was happy i mean it wasnt full blown out racing just a 70 to 90 run i guess. I pulled for alittle then he gained back.
I wanna do a supercharger but saturday im goin to go look at an AWD Turbo Eclipse for my GF so i wont have the money.
Idk if his was an auto or not. Only time ive seen the car. COuldnt tell it was dark and he didnt have exhaust so i couldnt hear how his shifted.
