Thumbs up Got my Best run in last night

Sup guys, I went up to NE Dragway and got a few runs in.

My best run was my second pass.

60 FT - 2.260
1/8 - 8.975 @ 82.44mph
1/4 - 13.69 @ 104.29

My 3rd Pass

60 FT - 2.264
1/8 - 9.034 @ 82.01mph
1/4 - 13.77 @ 104.04

And my 4th pass

60 FT - 2.239
1/8 - 8.976 @ 82.19mph
1/4 - 13.71 @ 103.95

So as of now my best run is a 13.6 @ 104mph. I was pumped to finally hit mid 13's with some few bultons. The best thing is, I know theres more in that car.

I got off the highway and ran 2 times, the 2nd was when I got my best run. Then I let it cool off for a few, I think I got myself out of my groove. I was thinking I was going to hit 13.4 @ high 104 or low 105mph.

I know I can do better with my 60 foots too, Im brining it up to 2,800rpm then feathering the clutch and soon as I feel it hook or about to hook, I put my foot into it.

I think Ill end up getting some Nitto NT555Rs really soon, and I need a dyno tune. I have some videos of the car, but it doesnt zoom in enough...But Ill post them soon. Tell me what you guys think.

I smell high 12s with that MPH congrats on your personal best. Be prepared to have a blast with those DRs once you hit the track again.

Damn thats awsome. 12's with some bolt ons? Thats awsome. I want to get some drag radials, then an aluminum driveshaft and a dyno tune.

Heres some videos, pretty cool you can hear me barkin 4th every time:
13.6 run against a turbo'd civic i think? idk but he had a big ass turbo.


Then my 13.7 run against some guy in his audi who kept trying to stare me down like his car was really fast. but as you'll see i probally won by 15 lengths? lmao. This was a really good run, when you hear me bang 2nd my tires spun which sucked because that was a good run. I thought I was going to run a 13.4 or 13.5 on that run but my tires spun

Thanks guys. And yes I do, Im probally going to go once more before Nittos to see if I can run better once more. Then Ill buy a pair of Nittos. Im hoping with some more bolt ons and sticky tires I can run 12's without Headers.

Sticky tires will help you alot.It will take some time getting use to them, if you never used them before.

I wouldnt do Mickey Thompsons, because Ill need a built rearend. The stock Mustang axles can handle the Nittos more than MTs

thanks for the comments guys. My car feels like a beast now. I think Im just going with some Nitto NT555R's. I want to keep it in 100% street trim, just with some stickier tires. Im not going to do a full rearend.

Im going to go up in like 2 weeks, see if i can top my best run. Then do some nittos and dyno tune
