2004 Mustang GT Kill
89 L98 Full bolt ons
04 GT 5 speed, 3.73 gears, exhaust, headers, intake
We went once from a dead stop on a long two mile road. I beeped three times and we were off. With both of us spinning out of the hole we were dead even at 20 mph, by around 30 I started to pull on him a bit [1/2] car. When he switched into second gear i heard a LOUD bark [wish my car did that!]. By the time 50 came along I had about a car length on him. It stayed this way up until my car switched into third gear, then I pulled a bit more. Pretty sure I heard him chirp third!. At around 90 mph I had about a car and a half on him. We shut down at 115 ish. Not exactly sure but I think I had about two cars on him. I thought this race would be alot closer than it was. I think traction played a big role because my car shifted into second with NO wheel spin, where as his car was spinning. Thank you auto trans! Good times.

Re: 2004 Mustang GT Kill
Anything that does not run 13s is slow to ME, everyone has an opinion. 13s aint **** ither but it is quick. 12s is movin, 11s is haulin, 10s is holding it down and single digits on a street car is insane. 14s and slower is nothing to talk about.

Re: 2004 Mustang GT Kill

Re: 2004 Mustang GT Kill
If you had my 305 c.i. it would have been close. LOL
That sounded like it was a nice race.

If your "full bolt on" L98 doesnt bark going into second you have really great tires or dont have a shift kit of any kind.
My old L98 with no where near what i would call "full bolt ons" would try and go sideways on a WOT 1-2 shift.

Re: 2004 Mustang GT Kill
its not all that hard to bark the tires on a gearshift with a manual.
