Default 0-60mph times

Have any of you guys ever tried measuring your 0-60mph times on the street?

I've made a couple of runs filming the dash and then timing it later...I come to about 5.5-5.6 seconds

no burnout or anything, just stop and go

mods are in my sig


Does this sound about where I should be?

I'm running 17X9 stock-style bullitts with 275/40/17 Nitto DR's in the rear.

sounds about right to me, that is actually pretty impressive. i would try a 0-60 myself but unlike your generation of mustang my generation has a real problem with hooking up in the rear with even minor mods to the engine.

What mustang doesnt suck with traction??? Ones that have like full suspension and slicks. Other than that, you are going to spin. But I think that stock for these cars was like 6 flat. So with a driver thats not a professional, 5.5 or 5.6 is pretty good.
