Default First Track runs

They were at the Barona 1/8th mile track, she ran a 10.54 @ 67MPH and another one with 10.56 @ 62MPH (dad had a hard time shifting into fourth). Overall it was a good day, sorry no good pics though =(

That's kind of disappointing, but then again I have no Idea what those older cars are supposed to run. Either way, I still love those 69 Mach1's they're my favorite mustangs.

Well, it is, a bit, but remember, its an old mustang, probably with like 250-300rwhp, and a stock 4 speed, with the new motor and 5 speed it should run in at least the nines. And i love em too, i wanna make a dragster with a 69 body =P

A buddy of mine did that with his '69 back when we were in high school. He made it a high 12sec street car. Then the bastard got carried away with a show winning '69 mustang that ran 12's and turned it into a super gas bracket car with a CHEVY 468 and a glide. I never forgave him for that. He chopped up a beautifull car to turn it into a tube chassis aluminum interior drag car. Oh, well, to each his own.

THAT BASTARD!!!

Anyways, my best friend's brother in law has 2 of those body style Mach1's in his garage. The one that runs (it's blue ) has the stock 351 Windsor but it is fully built and has 7 angle machined heads. From what I've heard, it is making about 450 hp N/A to the crank. Me = Jealous.

When your car looks that good you should drive as slow as possiable so people can see you in it!
