I bet that is why they went to 4 out of 7 instread of 2 out of 3 like they were doing. I bet they couldn't get a show together.

Yeah...the inside word is that with more tuning it's got 8.80s written all over it.

Is that in reference to me?


If so, the key phrase is "10.5 setup". The car wasn't tuned for 8 seconds when the show aired. I'm sure the Camaro is well capable of running faster than 10s with a big block and 300 shot of nitrous.

I am glad I do my own work. I would be damned if I would take my car to a shop that just lost on pinks because they couldn't keep the water in the motor or the break fluid in the master cylinder. You might as well close down if that happens to you as far as I am concerned.

ya was really pissed at that episode. not only because the fords lost but the fact that they would even air that episode due to the lousy racing that went on.

and dont even get me started on pass time. I have no clue where these lousy cobra drivers have come from. I am no gift to racing but hell I ran better then that on street tires in my cobra with no mods. speed in general must be owned by a gm fan.

Oh yeah, and did everybody see the video floating around here with yellow SN95 5.0 with a Vortech intercooler without a supercharger on Pass Time. From what I can tell on the crappy YouTube vid there is no s/c, I need to see it on TV to confirm it.

You sure it's not a turbo down low somewhere using that air/water IC?

I kinda saw the blue tag, but I'm still skeptical. I did some research and they dont make a Power cooler for a SN95. Unless he used a fox tb and front accessory brackets because the alt. isnt up top.

The 94-95 guys said the cooler wouldnt fit. http://forums.stangnet.com/showthread.php?t=740123&highlight=pass+time

And he still trapped 98mph, isnt that stock? Anyway he still shouldnt say "500" hp.

I just saw a glimpse of something grey and kinda roundy looking like a supercharger, and that pipe is going into something.
