Default Mach's In Action (MIA)

As per the order of the Supreme Mod Groundpounder here is a thread of my Melanie (the car not my wife) in Action. Sorry GP no pics, i forgot to charge my Camera and looked like an *** in the parking lot trying to get it to work.

The Video


If you've got video footage of your mach place it here as well!

Cool video, what times did you run? I couldn't make out the board at all.. You certainly can drive, though!

I'll hopefully have some videos soon as well!

Hey USMCrebel, what rpm you shift at? Just askingb/c comparatively with my 60' times (a tad slower)a 2.02 60' sounds more like 8.50s in the 8th.Groundpounder told me to get a vid with my car using the o/r h-pipe I just bought from him whenever I got my head out of my arss. Told him I don't think that's ever going to happen. Hella nice run! And it's white, the rarest of the bunch!

no, the best i've cranked out yet was an 8.94, im launching at 3750rpms maybe 4k rpms depending on temperature. but i dont pop the clutch, that would result in a smokey ball of pain and death of tires. when the 3rd yellow show i ease out of the clutch to get the snap off the line, and when i "feel" the tires catch then i finish letting off the clutch and off i go. the 1/8th mile is not letting me get into my powerband with the stock 3.55's.

You gotta put that Mach on a 1/4 mile track, let it redline 3rd gear across the finish line.
