I'm sure more and more people will chime in, or just search the forums there is a wealth of knowledge far more than what I have.
Oh ok cool. Yeah I have 400 miles on it already since when I bought it new on Thursday but I'm trying to take it easy on it until I hit 1,000 just to be on the safe side but its not that easy holding my foot off the gas lol.. Nice so you got a 12.7 completely stock?..

Yeah. Only thing I had at the time was GT500 axlebacks, doubt it added anything to numbers, just sound. I can probably do better. It was my first time ever at the dragstrip. I'm happy with it though. Haven't gotten back yet.

This was that run with me against my buddy with a fully bolt and built G8.

Nice, didn't seem like he left you to far behind. These new mustangs are pretty stout.

Wow! It is really cool. I'm curious about the price difference of that in Mustang Shelby GT500 2012 and its speed?
