Dunno if I'll be buying a car by then. That leaves me with riding with the giraffe....and I could not spend that much time in that slow of a car only to go to something as gay as Mustang Week.

Wow guys ya really blew this up haha. Yeah F8L BYT we can roll another time and I know u were under the impression I had headers cause I told u I had them just not installed. It's all good. Like I said we are cool I wasn't on here to split hairs or promote this retarded drama, just get the story straight but for sure let me know when U wanna run again.

And actually for all the haters, F8L has a real nice cobra! absolutely amazing exhaust note haha I'm in love with it. And I have no idea about his numbers but his shifts sounded quick and positive.

One more for all the internet **** talkers. We have a pretty tight little crew down here and we have a lot of cool people with some badass cars, and we are not gonna let some internet **** talkers cause us any problems.

Also to whoever it was that said "that's not what your sig says. something smells fishy" I'm pretty sure that it says exactly that if you read it. 13.4 Crap street tires, pre stall and trans. I guess if you want to be technical I may have had the lid and cat-back on but I can't remember that was over a year ago and those are not a large game changer anyways. (free ram air was a couple months back too. not before the track run)

Sean that is some of the funniest **** I've seen in a long time.
...and don't be hating on Mustang week plus you know you'd love to sit next to me for 14 hours and listen to me talk about Mustangs the whole way last year we even saw some turdmaro's hovering around, too, so you can always look forward to that!!!

If it looks like bullshit, and it smells like bullshit, its probably bullshit. I'm no hater but you came up in here with more excuses than Bill Clinton and expected everyone to buy it. You got drug plain and simple.

You can believe, and even say whatever you want, but I've raced too many of each to believe you. All the talk here will never convince me the Cobra wasn't a mid-high 13 second car from 96-01 when driven correctly. All that talk won't make me believe the LT1 ran 13's either. Sure, a handful did... Most ran 14.1-4's, even driven correctly(OHV's got it like that, no learning curve required)... That's just what it was.

Btw, I wouldn't put a Mach1 against a 96-98 Cobra mod for mod... The 96-98 engine is what powers the worlds quickest Cougar... Nobody's ever been noted going 6's with a Mach1 engine, let alone 6.20's. That said, not even the LS1 can hang mod for mod. Even if the mods exist, the block isn't strong enough for the show.

We might go, she said we are going to Florida June, not July. Would be nice to hang out with you and Sean again. Although I should bring the integra and beat you both
Haha I agree with you there on the weather, I am thinking about just moving down there after I'm done with school too. I need warm weather year around.

Haha you cant come to mw in the teg when you have two good running mustangs, it doesnt work like that.

Still pissed that I missed meeting F8L last yr. BTW F8L I lost your #, pm me or text me if you have mine.

FWIW, my very first pass ever down the track was in my cobra. Completely stock down to the paper filter and stock bfgoodrich T/A 245/45/17 tires I went 14.3@100 w/ a 2.3 60ft. Clearly that is a 13 sec pass had I knew how to launch the car.

If you can't get into the 12's with bolt-ons then I don't think the car is the problem. Hell I first did it with Firestone SZ-50 tires. lol.

Random Video's eh? OK.

BONE STOCK w/ DR's
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_iOpOtxufko

Based on that i'd have to agree with LT/LS in that the LS1 is a whole nother league.

But the truth of the matter is, since neither of those vehicles belong to us we really don't know what was done to them.
