Took advantage of the cool weather Wed night and clicked of this run. Had traction probs all night but hooked on this run without loading the converter. Think the Mach has a 10 in her with a little more traction.




I'll post the video of the run shortly.

What kind of tires do you run in the back? I would imagine pulling those FR500s off and switching to a 15" rim in the back for the extra sidewall would help the 60' a bit. Also maybe switch to some skinnies on the front lol. Every bit helps.

The problem with 15's are the Cobra brakes can't fit. I never had traction problems with the 17 inch MT DR's. I'll have to get another set.

Thanks man Numbers are from a Dynojet through a stalled unlocked auto. I haven't weighed it yet but the only reduction is I removed the spare.

You can try those 16" rims from V6 mustangs and some MT ET Street.

The other mustang in your run is really slow, he almost hit 16s

Actually the run on the slip wasn't the run on the pic. I made about 10 runs that night. That silver Mustang vert was a beast. It went 10.90 on that run on motor. He has a 100 shot that puts him in the low 10's. Thanks man I'll look into that.
