What was your time the first time you went to the dragstrip in your mustang?
I was thinking about taking my GT down to the dragstrip ( 5 spd. ) for the first time and just wanted to know an estimate of what most people here ran in their stock 05-07 5spds? This includes 1/4 and 1/8 mile.

with your 4.10s and bolt ons, I don't see why you wouldn't run at least a high twelve as long as you hook. Do you have or do you plan on getting some drag radials or rear ca's?

First time I went I had already had a 93 Octane tune with a C&L Intake and an O/R H. Ran about 6 runs with a 13.2 being my best time.

^^^ not to be bossy, but I'd put the driveshaft on the back burner and get some sticky tires (I got some mounted on takeoffs because I figured I'd be switching back and forth between the drag radials and the factory pirellis, but with the 4.10s I don't see myself ever putting the pirellis back on unless I want to do burnouts lol), plus an rear upper ca since the lowers will only half solve the traction issue. Just my opinion...hell I'd figure a low 13with your current mods, but with stock gearing and sticky tires...drag radials + 4.10sshould be high twelves at least...
