If you want a good 1/4 mi time at the track, you need a GIRL to be driving it. We might not be much on real roadways, but we tear some shit up on the drag strip! :P

Reaction time: 0.5938
1/4 mile time: 14.8 (w/ 15" wheels w/ everyday tires, vacuum leaks, sc, & NO engine management :blink: )
I love seeing "first to finish" at the bottom of all my time slips!

And looking at your numbers... wanna explain to me why youre 3180 pound beast runs a 14 flat?  A Mustang GT with at least 200 pounds more weight, and 20 hp less runs high 13's at least for 6k or more less cashola.

Dude the mustang could cost 10K less and I still wouldnt want to be caught driving it =)


BTW my car gets 5 more MPG on avg and oh wait look at this

0 - 60 Time
                                    (seconds)  1/4 Mile Time
                                                                                (seconds)  1/4 Mile Speed


Ford Mustang Mach 1 - V8 4.6L DOHC (310 hp) 5M + ABS  5.66  14.12  105.50  127


I think the mustang pull a easy high 13s same for the 350Z but I think it would take a better driver to get the 350Z there VS the mustang.

chances are its all in the gearing of the car. Im not sure what the 350Z is VS the Mustang but either way

It's still a mustang.

That timeslip show 105 MPH in the quarter, and they only ran a 14.1???? WTF is wrong with that picture?

105 MPH in a Mustang is good for some LOW 13's. I've personally seen a Mach 1 with a driveout tag in the window run 12.8's.

Where the flying FUCK did you get those numbers? Those are Mustang GT numbers. Mach Is stock will run 13.1-13.4s... and with tires they'll run 12.9s.
 
I got the #s from Carpoint.com

heres another place that has the 2003 Mach 1 listed as 14.0

http://www.ssmoparmuscle.com/speedcomp.htm

anyone here find some online stats that show the mustang "other then cobra" running low 13s to high 12s?

I've heard to many people calm it can do it not just here but other places I've NEVER had someone back it up with anything
 
Anymore sites?

I find it weird that when making 310HP at the crank they dynoed it at 283 rwhp 27WHP loss on a RWD car is rather low

that means it had a power loss of only .0871% now that's ONE HELL of a RWD drive
train!

Find me a car and driver, or a road and track times.
 
car and driver and road and track suck at driving these cars. they granny shift. Hell the 00 R only got a 13.4 when they were driving it. THere's tests all over that website...wwwmusclemustangsfastfords.com I believe is what it is. I've never seen a Mach I run anything over a 13.5.

Edit: much like the 03 SVT CObra and 02 LS1 SS, the Mach Is are underrated...horribly.

Ok find then find me a site that deals with all makes and models of cars not a MUSTANG site.

Shit I bet the 350Z runs mid 13s since car and driver as with road and track can't drive worth shit. still they managed to run low 14s with it. Maybe lower torque cars like the 350Z are easier to drive in the 1/4 mile?

For all I know the mustang could really run low 13s but once again so far the only place that has shown that is your link that happens to be a mustang page....
Find me some specs from place that reviews ALL makes of cars.
 
So because it's an MM&FF mag the times are going to be tainted?

Go to any Mustang board and ask any Mach I driver. Never seen anything over a 13.5 myself on mustangforums.com.

Go to any street meet and ask the owner of any car there, chances are they will also talk shit.

Im not saying that the mustang mach 1 can't do it all Im saying is I've yet to see anything other then people talking shit or your one post to a mustang board

everything else I've found says low 14s and high 13s at best very high

For all I know it would very well run low 13s I really don't care what it runs I would just like to see some solid #s on the car that are not (tainted) =)
 
talk about a thread jack. lol

who cares about what website said what times. let it go man, seriously.

and it'll still destroy your 350.

So would my old civic what's your point? I never at one point said my 350Z was faster then a mach 1 mustang

Once again it's a mustang.

Blah blah blah... At least ONE other person on this board doesn't have a huge hardon for underpowered import "sports" cars.
