Yes this is my street toy car that I drive less than 1,000 miles per year and drive to Woodburn ,OR Dragway which is only 17 miles from my home.The Bogart rear wheels were custom made to be street legal and the front Weld wheels are race only and you have to stay away from parking lot curbs,LOL.Wheels with the correct back spacing for these cars are very hard to find and because of the big *** brakes.

Am I reading the guide correctly that the 5.0 GT is a D car rated at 325?

That is one cool car! The 5.0 Coyote has a ton of potential!

Thanks for sharing!

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.
