with a 2.035 60' yeah.... but he's running drag radials, he should be cutting into 1.7-1.8 at least, wich would put him right at 13.5-13.6.... same goes for you BTW.

i pulled a2.035 on brand new drags launching at 5000RPMs and ran a 13.99 at 98.25 MPH there was a guy from a mustang performance shop watching me run and he said that there was no way i cud possibly have driven any better. D/R only get u a 1.7 60' if u hav more than a stock motor. UPR's full drag suspension in their drag car only pulls 1.6 60' so if u can pull a 1.7 on no suspension then idk how the hell ur doing it. The kid who ran a 14.03 is def. driving very well but D/R alone will not get him into the mid 13s. he will def need gears to get there. I am also driving a 95 GT so mine is a tad heavier.

i have friends with minor bolt-ons cutting 1.8-1.9s on yokohama street radials... look at rsw007's sig for example, he has very minor suspension mods and cuts 1.4s on the same drag radials you have, granted this was on a 100shot, but i believe even N/A he cuts 1.5s with bolt-ons only. with some decent driving it's pretty normal to run a 2.0-2.1 on a bone stock stang right down to the street tires. with some BFG DRs i would be pissed if i wasn't AT LEAST cutting 1.8s.
