First 2011 V6 Mustang to Hit 11-Seconds – AmericanMuscle.com!
Hey guys,
For those of you who know about our 2011 V6 project, you probably saw us cranking out mid-12 second passes at the end of Stage 4. We’ve had our minds set on hitting the 11-second mark, and I’m excited to say that we finally did it!
Last Friday, we went to Cecil and ran 11.94 @ 115.63 mph with a 1.71 60’ on our first run! We wanted to see just how far we could push this V6, so Mike Wilson pushed the car to a blistering 11.90 @ 116.12 mph with a 1.69 60’, proving to all the haters out there that a V6 can be bad ***! Check it out…

We’re really excited how easily this base V6 became a monster and we owe a huge thanks to Mike Wilson and the rest of the crew at Bama Performance for tuning this car to perfection!
I really can’t leak the details just yet, because 5.0 Mustangs & Super Fords magazine is doing an article soon, but I can say we’ve got new drag wheels/tires, a torque converter, more boost and a cooler intake temperatures since you last saw it in Stage 4. If you’ve been following the build up to this point, you know that it took pretty simple bolt-on mods to achieve ridiculous performance! Check out all the installments of our 2011 V6 Project Car here: http://muscle.am/oeSWIn
I think you can probably guess that we’re not done with this thing… we’ll be back at the track soon – going for faster timeslips, as always!
We’ll keep you posted!

DOn't lie AM; this is just a planned attempt to force us 3V guys to have to upgrade to supercharged.
As much as I'd love to pull away harder from these quite fast V6's I'm going to have to hold off until my '07 is paid off. I'll be seeing you in a year or two!
