Yea it's a Maxima. I really have no clue what they run, it makes 300 and runs pretty good for what it is. I really doubt it will touch 13s, probably a low 14....MAYBE the same trap as your daily. Let's just say it feels faster than it probably is, it's just a nice changeup from when I'm sick of driving the camaro.

I hear ya about it being a nice change up from the Camaro from time to time. Sometimes I enjoy the Mustang more since it's much more civilized but yet still has enough power to have a little fun, and still has the the looks to attract some attention

Nope not lately. To be honest I get really nervous running the 10 bolt at the track with my mods and power. I'm trying hard to save for a better rear. How about you?

Made a lazy pass at the local 1/8th mile last weekend, just so I could go down the track. Didn't want to break it....hence the 2 second 60ft...zero spinning.

Love that tire and wheel setup. It must be a lot easier to manage all that power with an auto. After I build the rear I'd like to do something like this as well

Thanks. There's no better feeling than clicking through the gears and never falling out of boost. That's another reason im still easy on the car....10 bolt.

The 10 bolt isn't near as weak as people make them out to be. With a stalled auto you could more than likely spray your car at the track and not break....as long as you don't wheel hop. I bent my driveshaft and broke the rear end yoke at SCT a few months ago trying to send it.... rear end was perfectly fine.

Wow that's amazing at your power level that it didn't give way. I know they are stronger than given credit for, but me being a M6 with 4.10's and dr's at my power level I just cringe at the thought of launching this car lol

3.90s seem to be a bit stronger. I broke axles in my 10bolt. I didn't break the r&p of the 3.90s till a mishap while testing the ignition cut.

New mustang looks to be stout. I'll wait for head to head mag testing and see what it runs in the hands of the people as the furd guys said about the 6gen. Kinda cur6about the m6 times also

I think the new Mustang has the edge but it would be neat to see both it and the Camaro tested at the same time.

Pretty good. That a10 is the ****. He is at one of if not the fastest tracks in the country tho with super good da.

Not sure if he is on the corvette levrl like he thinks tho. But they are close to the camaros now.

Even more impressive when you consider the base model is 3860 lbs. I wouldn't be surprised if it reaches close to 4000 lbs fully loaded. To be pulling that kind of trap speed with that kind of weight it must be making really good power along with the A10

I guess we will see if the regular camaro gets upgraded to the a10. Not that the 5br0 is making bad power but it's carrying a ton of gear and alot of rpm. It's probably pretty safe to say even this early that the 5.0 > 5.2 so it seems.

It was runnung in -16xx air to.

Yeah I think it was LMR than ran a Shelby GT350 that same day at the track with the 18 GT. I wanna say it ran like 12.4 at 116. Of course with a good driver it should be extremely close
