Default think i got a superstang

Well i was pulling out of work today and this mustang with dumps, and cowl induction hood, full bolt on stage 2 cams, suspension and some other normal things for a gt, well we pulled out on the highway and he got me from a run due to he was behind me and he had a little more speed starting out, but then we met at a light and i got him from dead stop by about 3/4 car. he asked if i had a super or turbo or cam and i said no...i told himwhat i have and he said there is no way that i should be as fast as i am. The last 1/4 mile run i did was a 13.4 but that was before the gears and the tune. people say that with those two upgrades i should drop about half a second if i stick good, but that still only puts me high 12s at most. do i have a superstang

judging what you think your car can run by what you beat on the street is totally meaningless. Anything can happen on the street and the faster car does not always win.

Man a superstang! I thought I heard it all. Why didn't you just post your win (be it lucky) and get alot of thata boy. Point blank that guy couldn't drive... Short into the point. I doubt you have a stang that's a factory freak... Good win tho, congrats...

yea thats a fast ****in time. i know everyone "has a buddy who did it faster" but a 13.4 is a really good time for the very few mods he had when he is saying he ran it.

Nah, no superstang. You beat the driver, more than likely, not the car.

My brothers 01 went 13.7@100 with only a drop-in k&n. Full weight, street tires, and hes 6ft3 325lbs. That would be a better example of a "superstang".







Not really, just a better example of a good driver.

Even the OP's 13.4 isn't too hard to believe assuming he cut a very good 60'.

When he asked if you had a turbo or super or cam you should have told him yes.

"I have one cam, driver side, to make up for the extra weight since that's the side I sit on."
