Launching Mustangs and Cobras

Thanks for the replies....well, I got news. My 2001 Cobra sure as hell launches now, with what I've done to the suspension. The last really significant mod needed for an IRS Cobra to make the rear end hook up is the #4 Differential Crossmember, which was developed on the FR500. Actually, probably originated with Kenny Brown....and I believe it is a stock part now on 2003 Cobra's. I don't even know, though if I need it, 'cause my 2001 Cobra is a monster coming out of the hole.

haha sorry stang guys, you can't touch a TTA... plain and simple. mid 13s are the average for that car. I've heard of alot of freaks running low 13s. go to www.3rdgen.org and read about some of the owners. Those cars are crazy quick. I wouldn't even be confident about racing them in a modded LT1!! Let alone 5.0 stangs or late model gts... haha which would get smoked!!

Due to idiots claiming the TTA is a low 13 car, I now claim the fox body Mustang is a mid/high 13 car from the factory. The TTA can BARELY manage a 100mph trap speed. Low 13's with 100mph trap means a sick hole shot and 99.9999999999% of drivers can't pull that off. I say that because considering trap speeds, the 87-88 GT's could easily match the TTA in performance, in a straight line. They are equal in power to weight.

I've also seen timeslips listed for a 1997 Gen I 4.6L bone stock convertable at 14.7sec with a 2.2sec 60ft. Since I know that's impossible, I chalk it up to a screwed up race track. This is to what I attribute 13.2sec TTA's which are bone stock. Screwed up tracks or people who have cars that get faster as they get older.... I remember back when my 1971 El Camino pulled off a 15.2, five years later 14.2, ten years later 13.2, 20 years later 12.2... etc.

The new Mach 1 is an ultra low 13 car from the factory.

The 1994-1995 Mustang GT is a low/mid 14 car from the factory.

The 1996-1998 Mustang GT is a mid/high 14 car from the factory.

The 1999-2003 Mustang GT is a mid 13 car from the factory.

I'm not a mag racer, and I'm not a ricer so unlike 99% of F body owners and ricers, I don't quote the best times possible from the cars I drive, but I feel there is no choice in this matter except to point out how quick the GT's truly are.

I don't believe a 99-up GT can pull of a mid 13 second run. The Mach I is much faster than the GT. Adding DOHC 32 valves and a 4V not to mention much better flowing exhaust is much better than the 16V SOHC 2V, more a .4 seconds faster. The GT's HP level is correct, the Mach I is underrated.
Also, a TTA is faster than a Mach I.

LOL, idiots.

It's so annoying to see people posting about what they have no clue about. Give me a trap speed?

TTA 100mph
Mach 1 105mph.

Have a nice day, and quit living in la-la land. If you don't like the numbers, head somewhere else, I get sick of pointing out the reality with cold hard facts.

HAHAHA
even on your website you lost to a 99 z28, and not a ss. The z28 ran 13.4 and you ran 14.4.. plus your best is 13.8, still not touching the Z, let alone the ss.


Go home you have been

Hum, lets see. Yes, that was at the track last year. If you read on further I said I missed 3rd gear and coasted though the finish. I know that's no excuse, but you need to get all the details straight before you bash. Also I did not race an SS at the track, but on the street, this year. I also beat an LS1 vette vert on the street as well.

Side note, my 60 ft time was 2.3, that's horrible, no traction! With the suspension mods I have done, and drag radials I have ordered, I should be able to drop my time well into the very low 13's with ease.
