Let's set up a track day then so we can see how awesome of a driver you are and how blazingly fast your car is. Crandall is open for Friday night for T&T. You down or you will "be having a life" that night?
I can talk shit if I want to and yes I'll be busy Friday cause I'll be having my kids for the weekend for the first time since the wedding.

Soo, you can talk shit, even though you aren't racing, or haven't beat anyone either, but I can't even though I am racing, having fun and bringing some fun lighthearted entertainment to the board?

LMAO..you're crazy, Jeff.

I make plenty of power to back it up so I know I will beat basic bolt 5.0's. so yes I can talk shit. You can't do that obviously ex: Nic. You know I would rather race against LS3 vettes and see how my car stands against them. Motor to motor of course.

Pretty sure I'm slower. You at least have a legit dyno tune. Highly doubt my can SCT tune competes. The intake probably isn't even really getting used because I'm on the stock airbox option (no K&N option)

ls3 vettes are very common.. shouldnt have a problem running into one


now finding a BONE stock one.. might be a problem.. because short of a paper tag one finding one that only makes 400ish rwhp will be tough.. unless you are making a lot more than the other 5.0 guys in this thread.

I have training on Thursday nights until 8:30. Go home, shower and then drive all the way to Denton from Wylie just wouldn't be worth it by the time I got there.

LOL, more dyno racing. Hate to tell you, but you'd get murdered by a even just a cam only LS3 Vette. Mustangs need to make about 100rw or more to stay even due to the weight difference. You aren't making that much power on motor.

I'm using the stock air box and filter as well. Only mod I have is the H pipe and tune. That's it.

Well obviously. The weight diff is what 500lbs not to mention the Aero drag. The 1/4 mile would be diff

1/4 mile would be different depending on the driver. I couldnt care about 1/4 mile so i dont know what i would run.

another local C6 ran 10.3 @ 132 making 520 rwhp NA.

that race was 100% won by driver.

the vette had WAY to much power to try hook like that on an un prepped surface.. stang as smart.. killed him out the hold and held him off for the 1/16th mile of the race

LMAO, that Fox is a nitrous car and makes WAY more than 496rw. It's already been proven. That was a nice troll job by that guy though.
