Ya know, I'm glad I had to come to the Mustang Forums to hear now I have arrived in "the real Mustang world", by buying what I wanted. That makes me feel better. I have justified my ownership of my car to the certain members here, no I have completed my quest in life....lol
What a joke, things never change around here.
Ya know what Giddy, you don't have a true Mustang becuase you don't have a CAI and tune, you for whatever reaseon chose to stick with your K&N drop in. CRAZY don't you think?








Well, yes and no. You gotta roll with the punches and not take things personal. Just cause we are some sort of cyber-club doesn't mean we aren't people. I mean, people are the cruelest thing on the planet. You gotta let it go. I stick with my thought that it wasn't meant to draw blood.

Ron congrats I've been waiting to hear that she came in, wondered what happened to you. We are going to have to meet at the track and test her out in a few more weeks when the snow melts. Haha! Enjoy man, and don't let anyone spoil it for you.

Jack,

Thats a strong MPH on your ET. That car has 12's written all over it. I would guess you are spinning off the launch considering the strong top end?

Yes the stock Pirellis spin way too much. I need some tires for both track and street. I need some suspension upgrades as well. I don't drive the Mustang in wet condition, it stays in the garage. I take it to the track occasionally but mostly on the street so I want a decent compromise tire. Need to research that.

Get some lcas and drop your rear tire pressure down to around 25, and launch a little more gentle and I bet you will see 12's.

Thanks for the suggestions. I plan on the lcas but thinking about what other suspension parts to get. I want an overall nice handling and balanced street machine that I occasionally will take to the drag strip. This is not in any way a drag only machine.

Jack you know that car is bad A$$ it was from day one at the track, few adjustments and you'll be alot lower in your times. Going with a solid non-adjustable LCA isn't bad for driveability in the car.

oh my god get over yourselves... I dont actually think that a V6 isn't a real mustang. It was done to evoke a response and it played out better than I could have imagined...Don't be so sensitive guy...
