Thanks for sharing!

The V6 cars a crazy fast also!

How consistant is it though?

Do you know roughly what the car weighed in at on that pass?

My car is a base model and I will find out for you the next time I go to Woodburn Dragway and let you know.

That would be a 2012 Cobra Jet body with a Coyote 5.0 based "crate" engine.

The last time a Mustang GT was legal in Stock was the 2008 model and NHRA rated that 4.6 3V @ 300 hp.

The 2010 CJ with the 4.6 3V is rated @ ONLY 232 hp..........what a joke. It should be more like 322 hp. Maybe someone at NHRA has the numbers inverted ?


Sharp looking Coyote GT you have David!
Love that white color.

Almack,
Thanks for the clarification. Can you tell me this... what keeps someone from going out and buying a new gt and just claiming in as 5.0 CJ?

I wish I could answer your question because the 2012 Mustang 5.0 is one of the better values on the market.My base model with a auto trans was $27,900.00.

I would guess you could as long as the car had all the same equipment as the race only version.

The very first Drag Pak to race was built from a V-6 Challenger, not a Mopar kit, so it is legal to do so.

Yeah I guess you would obviously have to compare the part #'s on the engine specs with the production GT. I guess that would be a good question for Jesse Kershaw.
