first time at track! here is the result!!
i went to byron dragway with chicagoland mustang club against chicagoland srt-4 club.
well this was my first time in my life at a track and at my first run, i bogged the car and did a bad 60' time which is 2.13 and ran 14.1 at 99.8 mph. i saw those other stang GTs were running 14.2-3-4 and i was very happy with my first run i beat their times..
then i lowered my tire pressure a little and lined up against a modified stage 2 srt-4 and light turns green and i jumped on him pretty good and DAMN!! i missed 4th gear but still ran 13.6 BONE STOCK and DID 1.91 60' time.. if i wouldnt have missed a gear, i would be definetely 13.4s stone stock..
06 GTO couldnt dig into 13s for about 3 runs and finally we lined up and i sucked at launch and i did 2.54 crappy 60' time and he ran 13.8 and i ran 14.5 which was my fault.. and that was it.. people couldnt believe me when i said i ran mid 13s stone stock on stock tires.. nobodyelse dig in mid 13s but me at ttrack with stock new stang GT! i was proud of myself
i will scan slips and post here.. now i am pretty busy..
i think with a stone stock new stang GT and it was my fiirst time evert at track and i ran 13.6 was impressive!

The saying is bone stock. An intake and tune plus some sticky tires might get you close to 12's.

RE: first time at track! here is the result!!
congratulations! excellent times for being stock!
i ran a 13.498 bone stock just by lowering the tire pressure. key is cold engine & cold air outside...these cars are very temp sensitive. if you improved your launch a little you could hit 13.5 or 13.4's easily. i think my 13.498 stands as one of the best stock gt times to date.
out of curiosity, what rpm were you launching at? did you pop the clutch or feather? heat up your tires? tcs off? little things like that can help.

i dumped the clutch and hit the gas like 75% and then floored it (i did these less than half sec. very fast) and got very good launch. burned the tires a little and TCS was sure off..
what did you trap on that run? also what was the evolution? i did 13.6 at 2500 ft. above the sea level.
