Default Re: Factory experimental

The actual shipping weights for the Mustangs are much higher than the gifts from nhra.

Let's use the Ford Executives figure of 720 Horsepower and nhra's weight of 3,250 pounds to check the trusty old Moroso Calculator. These things are usually pretty close.

Edit:
Add 170 for the driver = minimum weight of 3,358.

Answer: 9.51 @ 141+ MPH. Yes, they would have to get the car to stick.
