Got a 5.0 LX today

Was sitting at a light in the IROC and a 5.0 Stang LX sees me. He turns onto the road I'm on and pulls off to the side and waits for me. I catch him and we get beyond traffic. I let him have the jump and we go from a 50 mph roll and by the time I hit 85-90 mph, I look back and he was WAY back there, no idea on the number of cars. Come to find out, it's stock. Oh well.

Sometimes you get a stocker, and sometimes you get a sleeper

Thats the way it should be, the 3rdgen is faster than the 4thgen (talking about in your sig )

Btw, that mph for your 98 looks pretty goofy. Thatd be like 500 horsepower at the flywheel in a 3500 pound car.

It looks weird b/c that's 116 MPH on a G-Tech, which should be good for about 110-111 MPH at the track. We'll see, I plan to take the LS1 to the track this Saturday.

Oh, the most my IROC ever got on the G-Tech was 114 MPH, but at a much lower ET.

Where in OH are you Buckeye? I'd be interested in giving you a run. Unfortunately, I go to a military school in NY and won't be back with my car until this summer.

Good kill! You and I would probably make for a good race from a 45 - 50 mph roll.
