I HAD a 98 t/a (before it was total'd ) it had these bolt-ons: programer, cold-air, headers & exhaust, 3.73's and a 2800 stall w/ shift kit. It was pretty dang fast or at least to me. I never lost a race to any streetable car. At the track (1/8 mile is all we have here) I spanked one of those 05? Cobra's (stock). He ran 8.5 (with traction control on), I ran a 8 flat (spinning out of the whole). I also use to stomp those ***** lightnings like they were Pinto's. I'm just wondering what car's you guy's have beaten.

 

I have an L98 with basic boltons( pulleys, air foil, headers, cat back, smog delete, built tranny, 1.6 rockers) Its funny because I have been spanking the crap out of LT1s lately and they are stunned because I have some mecedes emblems from work that I rearranged and made say 305 on my fenders. So they must really feel stupid. I still can't believe they all fall for the wolf in sheeps clothing.

 

You guys are so cool.

 

I assume you mean 03-04 Cobra, and an 8.0 in one of those wouldnt be too hard. Pulley abd a filter and your there easily. An 8.0 and you never lost to a streetable car? Hmm must not be many fast cars down there, Ive been high 7s in a Mustang with stock heads, stock cam, and some bolt ons !

Id rather have a good race then just go out and stomp someone!

 

low 7.teens with a cam'd LT1 here. mid 6's on the juice. it got 25mpg when i drove it on the street.

 

well i have had a lot of just horrible kills which were just a waste of race gas and n20. Mostly all imports with stock turbos with BOV's and fart cans.

dont underestimate those mustangs they are fasts cars. they make for better racing also

 

First of all, an ls1 with a few mod's verse a car that's 6 year's newer and is supercharged and me beating him by a half of a second is impressive to me. Second of all, there's no way that 5.slow can run high 7's with bolt-ons. The only way you could do that is by jumping the light a full second too early!

 

i ASSume that that was a smart@ss comment...right?

 

Well I guess we aren't as COOL as him because we don't have a highly modified car as fast as his.

 

I have bolt on junk that ran a 7.7 8th mile, of course one of my bolt on's is a nitrous kit. Not bad for a stock high mile long block with an outdated fuel injection setup.

 

its very hard to tell what motor a car has by just looking at the outside.. 305's and 350's also sound pretty much the same.. a 305 badge will have even the most experienced people believe so dont get your hopes up.. IMO, your badge is just a sign of weakness.. time to be a man and take that crap off.. btw, 8.0's are by no means, slow..

i also agree with Demon355..

 

Its called sleeper. Even if I didn't have the badges my car would still run the same. So whatdoes it matter if I have badges or not? Be a man? You really shouldn't be talking. Anybody who just replys on a thread just to be a d**k and talk $hit about peoples rides is just plain ignorant.

 

woah.. easy there.. didnt mean it like that.. i see the sleeper idea but the way i see it, any stock looking 3rd gen that runs 8.0's is a sleeper in my eyes.. no need for a badge to mask anything more..

 

I few mildly built 4 bangers and a couple GTPs. I also took down a few of my fellow thirdgen drivers. I stay away from those "shitty" lightnings and Cobras since they are a pulley swap and tune away from stomping a mud hole on alot of street cars out there. LSX cars are also out of my league for sure too.

 

Understandable... Sorry for the outburst. I just sounded like your were being an @$$....

 

My problem is that everytime I come across anything worth racing (vette, stang, t/a, gto, or charger) they end up being a lady or a 95 year old. The only cars I get to race are high school kid's in there mom's volvo's, which I show no mercy! I have not and will not back down from a race, wether it's a porshe or a pinto I'll race'em all!

 

So when you crash your car after doing 120 in a 40 racing your buddies mom's station wagon, will it be all over the news so I can watch your dumbass show off your "I will never back down" attitude?

I retract my previous statement of you guys being cool. You're all f*cking stupid. Keep it at the track ladies.

 

Hey you F***ing idiot, have you looked @ the name of this forum? Why don't you keep YOUR dumbass comment's to yourself, shouldn't you be sleeping with a moose or something? Damn Canadian!

 

lol sleeping with a moose?

Grow up. Period.

Street racing I can deal with when it's with people that KNOW what they're doing. Not some 17 year old hot shot that thinks his car is fast because he beat the momma civic in the parking lot. Regardless of what this forum says, you take it with a grain of salt. Obviously people will street race and obviously theres going to be idiots like you that come on here, my point is...

You're a fool.

I'm done. I'm going to go back to my maple syrup, my cold winter months and my moose. "Damn canadian's"...

 

7.94, but with that attitude, Id suggest not pulling up next to me at a light. Might have some more parts going on soon, like maybe some heads, maybe a cam, maybe some kind of power adder! Our other one with Explorer heads, stock cam and bolt ons went 7.48 in the 1/8th!

Must be a LOT faster than anything in your town, even with a very mild combo!

 

You know I don't believe in racing on the street that much I prefer to race at the track. The occasional street stomping is cool to a limit. I like the chrome Iroc wheels. Sorry for the off subject statement. But anyways, If somebody wants to risk their life and someone elses that is there own stupidity. Lets just hope they don't kill anyone.

Demon, I agree but I don't think you need to be so harsh about it.

 

I think that these cars your saying cobra's and lightings have been driving real bad through my experience riding and driving my friends 03 cobra when it was stock esp now that is modded is ridicilously fast and I have been in the car when he crushes ls1 in trans am , camaros , and vettes street racing is aite when the people are responsible but just the other night I was coming up 79north and there were two mustanges stopped on the road trying to line up on a highway some people are ridiculous

 

i bet the old ladies in their vettes, stangs would probably own u in ur whimpy little 305. ur pos can't break into the 14's

 

agreed. using a badge and relying on it isn't a sleeper it's deciving.

 

yeah idk about the badge idea either. I see alot of v-6 mustangs with GT V-8 emblems on them. GAYYY! But I guess it would be smarter to make your setup look weaker than stronger. Not the other way around. I bet it's embarassing when you loose to a car that really does have a bigger motor, while your sporting a fake badge. BTW im bored as hell at work reading an outdated Car and Driver magazine.... Has anyone ever beat a Saleen S-7 down the track??? If your running an 11.6, then you might just have what it takes

 

First of all, why u gotta talk **** about a car you've never seen. Second, that's my point, down here all of the sports car's are owned by people who never use the power that have.
----------
I was racing my slightly modded 98' t/a verse a stock cobra. I know that those a cobra's ar badass when you just do some exhaust mod's. But my point is that having an older car w/o a supercharger beating a newer car w/ a supercharger deserves some respect.

 

Changing out heads in my book is not a simple bolt-on. No fast car's were I'm from....Okay. Check out this article, Brian Goss Lives a few miles from me. Now you tell me that I don't know what fast is.

http://www.musclemustangfastfords.co...otout_results/

 

I'm not sure what your thinking about when I say street racing, But when your at a stop light and it turns green and you try to beat the car next to you up to the next light, road or whatever, isn't always a life threatening incedent.

 

opp u were talking about ur 98. i thought u were talking about ur 88 beating the new cobras hahahhah. i have a friend that has a 04 cobra with intake and exaust and he ran a 12.1@112mph on drag radials. a 98 with headers, lid, tune, and stall should run the 1/4 around 12.5-.8 @around 105-110 depending on the driver and how well the car responds to mods.

 

I read somewhere that those cobra's have super restricted exhaust, that with headers and free-flowing exhaust that 500 horse is not a problem.

Yeah, I just found a website that tell's how to convert 1/8 mile times to 1/4 mile times. It say's I would have gotten around 12.6 in the quarter.But I never raced with slicks so I could have gotten better.

\http://www.nightrider.com/biketech/c...mulas_page.htm

 

YOUR the one who claimed an 8.0 car never got beat by anything in your area, I put two and two together and came up with the fact you must have a crappy area for fast cars. An 8.0 car at my local hang out would look stock!

And my heads are stock castings and unported at that. WHEN I do heads, I would cry with the times I run now!

 

I didn't say it always was... put it could potentially happen. Not by fault of either racer but somebody not paying attention could pull out in front of the race. I do it every so often, so I am not knocking it. Just saying that it is alot safer to race at the track.

 

I understand what your saying. What I ment was that I never lost a race to a street / daily driver cars. Hell yeah I lost to cars at the track that had n20 & slicks. But when there was a 4.6 stang with all the bolts I would stomp it.

 

A 4.6 with all the bolt ons... hmm sounds like an 11 second car to me, but then again I like getting everything I can out of my junk!

Well your area must be fun then, I wish an 8.0 car was faster than all the street cars around here!

 

I still don't see how your car can run as fast as you say. According to ford your stock car runs 14.9 at best.

http://www.albeedigital.com/supercou...0-60times.html

 

ok i gotta jump in here.. my friends 02GT (4.6L) with bolt-ons AND a vortech on 10psi runs 11.9 @ 112..

 

a buddies coupe with a cam'd stock 302 and 150 shot ran 6.70's with the stock t5 and 4 lug axles! all boltons and suspension.

 

So would agree w/ me that "25thmustang" is either lieing about his time or about what is done to his stang. He is basically saying that a almost stock 5.0L is only 1 second slower that a blown 4.6L.

----------
This has nothing to do with the debate: Does 150 shot actually give you a 150 hp or is that just what they want you to think?

 

isnt this thread supposed to be about what people have stomped in there car? all ive been reading is people b****ing bout whos is faster. what this will run what that ford will do . Anyways i have yet to race anyone in my 350tpi camaro , kinda suxs im really curious what it will do with sum bolt ons and a new long block . And to the all the people that are careless with racing ya ull def find out either a major ticket ticket or a bad accident . i prefer it either no cops around or in not a croweded area i have not such good luck with cops i no 1st hand

 

Yes it is, thanks! Everyone wants to go against me....anyways. I only get to race ricers and little punks in ***** cars. I haven't yet raced another 3rd gen.

 

First off i wouldnt believe this crap. ^ It has nothing to do with "ford"

Secondly he drives the hell out of it and runs good rubber with full bolt ons, and shes a light car. Whats not to believe?

If it was a chevy would you be more inclined to believe his times?

 

ok, how bout 7.50's / 11.80's with a bone stock LT1 engine? all the boltons and suspension in a '97 z28.
