who here races fox body mustangs?

SwillRacer · 12-17-2012, 05:02 PM

I'm hoping to try my hand in div 3 stock eliminator at some point in the next season or two. Well, more likely 2014 as I plan on running the local Summit Series at rt66 next season to work on the bracket racing aspect of the sport and try to get well under the index at a later time. I've got a 1989 LX 5.0 that I hope to run in M/S or N/S or maybe M/SA or N/SA. My background is running heads-up in the NMRA EFI/Renegade class for 8 years, winning the championship in 05, but I don't have the money or time to really be running allover the country blowing up parts anymore. Div 3 races are pretty close to home for me and NHRA seems to be a pretty stable organization given it's long and rich history.

Anyway, I was hoping to get acquainted with some fox body guys in stock and super stock whom I could bounce some ideas and/or build questions off of.

Shout out if you're interested!! I'll compensate with beer!

Thanks!

I run a fox body out of Div 6. When building the car start at the back and work your way foward. If you are going to run an auto a 8.8 rear will be fine. Low gear set for a C4 to get the car moving. A bone stock engine with a cam will get you under the index so dont feel you have to build the best motor right out of the gate. PM and i will give you my number.
