Mustang MPH?

Floyd Staggs · 02-20-2009, 07:13 PM

10.18 @ pomona 11.30 index
9.81 @ Phoenix 10.90 index

Isn't that an improvement?

If this is a Cobra Jet I saw one run 138 MPH at Fontana.

138 mph on ONLY 425 hp.... amazing!

Word is: 107 mph @ 1/8 mile @ Pomona in A/SA = 10.18 @ 103 mph
108 mph @ 1/8 mile @ Phoenix in AA/SA = 9.81 @ 133 mph...in better air.

Doesn't sound like the car is having traction problems any more!

Two weeks!

Wrong again Bruce!

Alex,
Easy to say that. How so?

No, I think you saw Brian McClanahan run 138 in his Pontiac.

Did you read the Robert Pond article at Drag Race Central? It seems he made a pass in Calvert's car and only ran in the 11's @ 136mph.
I have been piecing togther a '67 shelby for stock eliminator and I decided to change plans after the new mustangs came out. I am no longer trying to build an A car but will try to put together a combo for C.
No sense being down over 100hp in a heads up race.
