Is that an axle? Nice. :)

not anymore. that musta made a pretty neat sound.

[turok_crx]

Did that happen at Coy's import race at bandi?

[s92dx]

The real question is, who would've won?

[Skaterkid]

Him easy. I outrun brand new GT's, the old 5.0 should lose unless he's modded.

[ryanman]

nice!!!

[Weston]

Yeah, Mustang GTs are so slow, but their drivers always think they're fast. It's great... for ownage! :D

[ryanman]

You guys should run a 05 GT, you'll think otherwise.

[Weston]

You guys should run a 05 GT, you'll think otherwise.

Too bad it's ugly. The only Mustang I like is the Cobra... they have more potential than just power. :)

[Skaterkid]

By the time the 05 GT saturates the streets I'll have enough power to deal with them.

Now its just paper weight

what, do you need a car to be cute too in order to race it

[Weston]

what, do you need a car to be cute too in order to race it

No, beating up on the ugly cars is fun too. I just need it to not look like a retarded POS for me to actually like it and consider owning one.

[RiceBurner00]

have fun at looking at those retarded tail lights on the 05 stang, im sure you wont get that close though 8)

[Skaterkid]

I'm sure the 05 GT will run 13's up here :rolleyes:

[RiceBurner00]

how much diff. is that compared to sea level........all the cars I checked run the same times here to the times in Co. and im at sea level

[STIBungy]

What planet are you from? What cars are these you talk about?

[David]

do the drivers up here just suck or something?

[stu]

N/A cars suffer at least a second loss in the quarter mile. You should really go re-read whatever you are talking about because it's completely wrong.

[RiceBurner00]

I wasn't talking about N/A cars

[stu]

Okay, well let me be more specific. N/A and supercharged cars lose around a second, and turbocharged cars around half a second. Half a second also just happens to be close enough to factor in bad drivers and make you believe that they are running similar times despite altitude differences.

[Skaterkid]

I wasn't talking about N/A cars
Since when did the 05 GT come with unnatural aspiration?

now I know, thanks

[Talus]

now I know, thanks
And knowing is half the battle.






Go Joe

Jesus.

[sambandit]

Let's put it this way. My best here is 11.87 @ 116. I recently ran in Georgia, still at 1000 ftDA or so, and ran a very traction limited 11.18 @ 125. So, it's an easy second and 10 mph goin from sea level to here.

[sambandit]

BTW, I don't think a 05GT would have a chance in hell of running a 13 here. I saw a couple in Georgia running low 14's....lol

[saabracr]

I stomped an 05, but I'm pretty sure it wasn't a GT.

[David]

I hate all the assholes with domestics running better times than me :D

[sambandit]

lol

[stu]

When did you paint your car Sam?

[sambandit]

Went down to Gerogia and got it done about a month ago. It's nice to have relatives in the business!

[dsmsv8bro]

when did you run an 11.1 thats great

[sambandit]

Thanks man! I ran it in October. Unfortunately it wasn't here..lol. It was when I was in Georgia. Best I could muster at elevation this year was a 11.87. Hopefully a little spray next year will get me closer to that sea level ET here.....

[David]

thats damn fast at this altitude, do you drive it on the street?

[sambandit]

Yeah, actually the funny thing is, the car is as streetable as it was stock. Still gets about 24 mpg cruising down the highway too. I don't drive it a bunch as it isnt my daily driver but I would have no probs hopping in it and driving it anywhere in the US. Other than the fact that my big ass dosent like the seats so much...lol


Unfortunately, I dont have a vid of any of the 11 second runs but here is one of a low 12...

[sambandit]

I lied, just found a 11.99 run at PMI but it's kinda dark....lol

[dsmsv8bro]

ive seen sambandit run an eleven before hes legit it was at pmi
