Default 03 Mach-1
My new best is 12.916 @ 108.63 with a 1.992 60' on factory tires. The only mods I have is a O/R-X and weld in magnaflows. Just a heads up.

not trying to start trouble. But the guy that said he beat the mach with a 13.6, the mach had to be a bad driver or a bad car or both. No flames I was just saying the mach is better than that. I think the GTO is a nice car once I saw it in person.

Sounds like a bad driver. However, if it was an Auto Tranny in the Mach 1 that makes a difference. With the Mach 1 I beleive it is like 1/2 sec difference.

A4 Mach 1's are slow as hell.... and as for the 5spds I've seen at the track... they run decent with a good driver, but we all know how often that happens at the track. If your car runs 12.90's, great. Bust most of them probably won't.

I never realized stock Mach 1 Mustangs were capable of going that fast.

That's a pretty good time for a stock Mach 1. Aren't they rated at 320 hp?

That's pretty good. Those #'s are what a 97-98 LS1 would put down.

thanks,
I did not think it was that bad for a stock car. I don't think exhaust matters that much.

you're getting some help from the exhaust for sure.
Nice times!
