Another great night at the track for Team Lethal and our 5.0 Mustang Magazine project car. The cold air finally showed up so we loaded up the 2011 and headed to Palm Beach International Raceway. This time we added a few more lbs of boost and C16 race fuel. The car has a stock motor, 100% stock suspension, stock exhaust manifolds and the stock 6 speed manual. The mods are: 2.9L Whipple supercharger, Whipple 123mm Intake, L&M 66mm throttle body, Lethal Performance 3" offroad x-pipe, DSS driveshaft, Mcleod RXT clutch, SCT X3, Bogart drag wheels and of course the driver mod UPR Products Jeremy Martorella and tuner Jon Lund of Lund Racing.

Our first 2 runs of the night blew the tires off at the line. Our 3rd run Jeremy made some adjustments to the launch and cracked off an amazing 1.43 60ft which yielded us our fastest time yet 10.45@133mph. This was granny shifting the car. The run after that Jeremy wanted to powershift the car but the stock chrome shifter **** made it difficult and he missed 3rd gear. For our next run Jeremy swapped out the stock **** for a stock Shelby leather **** which he could get a better grip on.

So the last and final run of the night was made. Jeremy cut a 1.45 60ft and powershifted the car making it look like an automatic. The car ran a 10.39@133.25 making it our fastest pass to date.

Even though we may not have reached the limit of the stock block we're going to continue on with our project and start the build. Plans for the car will be a built motor, triple return fuel system using Fore Precision Works products and more boost.

You'll be able to read all about it in the upcoming issues of 5.0 Mustang Magazine thanks to Editor and good friend Steve Turner.
