I hate to start this thread but I have to.
Have this kid here with a 2001 Stang GT, car is bone stock and an automatic. Has high mileage on the power house, also has the timing chain hitting the cover. That item is going to be repaired before we go to the track.
Well since he got this car from one of our customers he has running the noise maker connected to his neck.
You guys can see the light moddage I have done to mine, and you see the time I did in the 1/8th. 9.2. That was before my headers were installed. We will run on an 1/8th mile strip. Being that if I get pretty good traction, you think I got'em. I don't care if I get'em by an inch as long as I get'em.
Some of the guys @ the shop are saying he has more advantage because he has an auto and obviously more horsepower.

I definatly will have a vid when we go.

I think yuo got him covered, a stock GT with an auto probably wont tag a 9.2. Some do, but most run slower than that. 5-speed car and you would have to worry.

Yea i think so too. The auto is killing him. My buddy has a 01 gt auto car...and before he put the 4.10's in it...it wasnt all that impressive. If you can launch and shift...i think it will be a real close race. I think you'll get him.

With the Cobra wing you should have no problems beating him j/k, I think it will be a close race but like previously mentioned gears would definately seal the deal.
Good luck.

Yea I thought the same, useing the ole downforce gain on him. The wheels added a good 50 more horses as well .

We will see. He has been trying to get the company to allow him to put the timing chain repairs on payroll deduct. Everytime he opens his mouth I just like OK we will see.
