Default Re: Pictures of my 2012 Mustang 5.0

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.

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?
