Just this weekend, I took my 87 Mustang to the track for my second time and I'm wondering if you guys think I can get much more out of this car without adding any stuff to it (I plan on adding to it soon, but im wondering if you think this is a decent time or do I have alot of improvement to make).
Anyway, my best run of the night was a [email protected], 2.266 60' time and .405 r/t. My best mph of the night was 92.07 mph and the 2.266 was my best 60'.
My current mods include subframe connectors, racing clutch, mac 2.5" pro-dumps, pace setter off-road h-pipe, mac cold air intake and 3.55's in the rear. The track I was at is at about 3500'. So could this car run alot faster? If so, how fast do you think I can run it with some more practice and what should I try and practice?

92 mph, should be good for mid to low 14's. Just a base line for you, I was running 14.9-15.2 at 87 mph in my old AOD, when it was basicly stock.

Thanks for the advice. Are my 60' times any good for stock tires and suspension, or is that something I should work on? What kind of stuff do i want to practice to get my times down? Thanks again for the help.
