oh yeah,my friends 96 Cobra with 4.10's cutouts and pullies is trapping 106-107 which is right around lightly modded LS1 autos (stock the autos trap closer to 104). I guess anyithing can happen on the street but if the cobra had been spraying,he would have put a few buslegths on him.

 

i raced an m6 ls1 f-body w/a 125 hp shot at the track... he go me by car lengths, not bus lengths. he ran a 12.395 @ 118.65 (2.151 60ft) vs what is in my sig. he had a few minor bolt-ons, as well.

 

Ok Ok Ok.

So, If the mustake runs a 12.2 with bolt ons and 150 shot at 117mph sounds about like he was definately spraying. In my altitude (about 7000ft.) A stock lt1 with bolt ons can run constistant 14's or 15's. If the mustake was 3-4 car lenghts ahead of the 14-15 second F-body, and you use the state patrol's method of figuring seconds between cars(one car legnth = one second), then that would mean that the Fbody REALLY runs a 15-16, the mustake runs a 12 (doubtful, I'm thinking more of 13's) and the only way a mustake can get to 12-13's is by sucking on a bottle, the guy was definately spraying.

Got friends that are bottle-fed too, all F-bodies, all LT1's. The best time out of all three of them is 13.1 @ 7000 ft. Altitute. So, if they weren't bottle fed, they would run about 14-15 which still makes the above equation fact. Bottle or no bottle, the guy should have released that information before the race considering he really started the race by talkin smack about someone who pulles up next to him. He didn't because he knew that by telling his opponent that he was bottle fed, unless his opponent has a bottle, turbocharger, or supercharger, his opponent would not have raced. The Ford Mustake (or mistake, whichever one prefers) owner knew he was going to cheat to win, its called pre-meditated cheating. He planned it.

 

First off ,

If I was him I would have hid the Nitrous kit If was going to try that on some one for money. I have worked installing nitrous kits for many years and know that you would have never found my kit without taking the fenders and engine bay apart.

I had some dork with a hatchback civic pull a gun on me once after I blew his doors off... And I was barely on it.


His mods were: exhaust. A wing. Primered panels. Some mild cam. He was using ricer math and thought he was pushing some 500 hp because he had a cam.


LOL

 

tobin i was talking about sea level. The Mustake (is it a Mustake that the Camaro dont exist anymore??) shouldve won by more than 3 lengths. at those speeds each legth is closer to A TENTH of a second

 

Is it a Mustake that 10 year old z28's run with brand new gt's?

 

I agree, lets look at MauriSSio's signature for a min. He even admits that his four door, 9C1 ran as fast as his mustake!! If this is true, why the F*ck is he driving a FORD when a four door sedan can keep with his mustake!?!?!

I would be embarrased to drive something that a four door sedan can keep with..........

"Nuttn but love, a whole lotta luv"

Yes, but maybe he as spinning or having other problems.

 

You have so much to learn, junior. One car length is about 1/10 of a second at the end of a 1/4 mile race. A stock '03 Cobra has run 12.4 before. A stock '99 GT has gone 13.7. A stock Mach 1 has gone low 13s. Free mod Fox bodies have gone high 13s.

 

He didnt cheat, nor did he have to tell you all his mods..thats what ya get for racing for money

 

There isn't a certain WAY that you race for money on the streets. If they were revealing their mods before the race and he left the nitrous out then he cheated. But if you guys said lets just race with what we both have then it was fair. There is many different ways you can look at it.

 

yeah, and the 9c1 would have smoke the **** out of my Crapmaro. so what? what exactly did you try to prove with that last post??

 

Yup that's really the best way of looking at it. If it's pretty much a "let's race for money" with no mods disclosed, then it's run what you brung. But on the otherhand, if you chose to race someone and each party is supposed to declare exactly what they have, leaving out a big mod like nitrous is cheap BS. None of us was there so we don't know exactly what the deal was, so there's two sides to the story to go by.

 

My thoughts exactly!
