heading to the track this weekend and was wondering if any one has an idea what a gt with 460 rwhp would run. i have a vortech v3, a bunch of suspension work rst twin disk clutch and good ge force tires. i would like to think im a good driver.

My wifes car has 458 rwhp / 480 torq and it did 118.7 at 12.7 with a driver that never drove it before (prior 2 runs that night proved that I did not know how to drive). The car has BFGoodrich G-Force 285/30zr20 tires on it. My understanding is that the speed this car produced it should be able to get in the 11.9s and this is with 3.55 gears.
I would guess that your car should do some where in this range.

With those tires you will not get traction. You need some good Mickey Thompson drag radials. I am thinking you will run a 13.200 or real close.

My bet is high 12s on your 3rd run. Dont be dissappointed if you get a 13 your first time. Everyone thinks they are a good driver. Some are alot are not. Try to walk off the line. Roll the throttle on evenly. And dont get to crazy with the 1st to 2nd shift. My last track outing ended horribly with 2.5 and 2.6 60ft times.
Good Luck!

Get some DR's!! I blew the doors off a 600hp GT500 last time at the track because he had no traction (a cheap win in my book, but a win none the less).... You spent all that $ on the blower, now shell out a little more for good tires so you can use the power.
should run 12.50's at 115mph a good tire will easily get you in the 11's

Hey MICkMACH
What rear wheel horse are you getting out of the 3.2 pulley and have you done anything to the bottom end of the engine to handle this power?

havent been back on the dyno since I had the 3.8 6psi pulley on..it made 371rwhp then. Im guessing now its 460/470. since I run KOOKS L/T's I can run the 3.2 on a stock bottom end. I see 9.5psi now. you loose almost 2 psi with L/T's.
I went to the track a few weeks ago and the car ran the same times with the 3.2 on as it did on the 3.4 so Im in need of a tune to get the most outa the 3.2 Im goin back to the ttrack Sunday. but Im going to toggle between the 2 pulleys.

We still have the stock bottom end on my wifes car with the 3.4 pulley. We to have the violaters on but no cat upgrade. How does the KOOKS L/T's help out the bottom end? Are you talking about them flowing better? I was thinking of detuning the car thinking that the engine might be a little to stressed from the horse power since it is a stock bottom end.
I went to your site and is the white Stang with the blue stripes yours? Wow it looks real close to ours. Hey let me know how you do at the track.

no sir the LT's dont help out the bottom end. the 3.2 pulley is a 12psi pulley and the LT loose about 2psi that puts me around 10psi but my gauge reads 9.5 so I feel safe with that on a stock bottom end. no more than I race it. my track times are in my siga nd I doubt I get a personal best...I want to go a few rounds..I may slow it down a bit. 7.50's so of them call it sand bagging
