Default Peeps with Mach I's.

So I'm on Hondaswap and this guy who hates domestics is talking his ****...well being the Mustang lover that I am, I decided to chime in. Apparently every piece of information he's found on the Mach I tells him that it runs a GTish time of mid to low 14s. I showed him MM&FF.com and their lovely 13.1 times, but then he decides that "they're just giving it a better light so Ford can sell more Mustangs"

SOoooo.... does anyone have any magazine sources outside of MM&FF that give the very low 13s of the Mach Is, and even better yet...anyone with a Mach I have any time slips I could throw in his face?

I dont have any mustang mags with info on it running low 13s. I know for sure that theyre in the 13s because I raced my friends stock Mach I and he kept up with me, even told me I had a scratch on the back of my bumper. I was PISSED!!!

I don't know the link, and I'm on way too slow of a connection to look, but high performance pontiac or something did a GTO vs Mach 1 comparrison. Just search it. They got the Mach to a 13.4 or so. Funny, they gave all the 60' times for BOTH cars, the GTO had like a best 60 or 2.3 or so, they couldn't get it to hook at all. Yet MM&FF did not publish ANY GTO 60' times, just the Mach I times. IDK, I just thought it was weird.

I saw the MM&FF but not the HPP articles. Why? Well I missed an issue. Pisses me off cause HPP is my mag ya know? lol. Well anyway, yeah I have seen some Mach's run deep into the 8's in the 1/8th down here, no slips just knowing how fast our cars are and how close they came to our rear bumpers. I guess if one can whup the ol GTO I have, then he is most def. in the 13's, cause it wont even run as slow as 14 spinnin...

I need to get 04shakinSteeds attention and hope that he's at least been to the track once since he got his Mach I.

Here you go S2000si, right from HOTROD magazine 13:30's and with better traction they thought high 12:90's were possible http://www.hotrod.com/featuredvehicles/113_0307_qt5/
