I went to the 1/8 th mi. local strip to get a few pics for a powerpoint presentation. I was staged against a new 2011 5.0. This was my first time ever at a strip. Burned rubber most of the way even with 05 Drag radials and had to let off the accelerator in 1st gear. Then I missed 3rd gear. With all of the bad driving, he never got closer than 2 car lengths. 5.7L LS6, MS3 Cam, 411 Wave-trac rear, 90mm throttlebody and 90mm Fast intake, LS6 Heads with 57cc and 12 to 1 compression, SLP Headers and Cats. Tuned by Bluecat, the MS3 was very forgiving, ramped up very fast, pulled power beyond 6500 rpm.

 

Good Kill!

for the **** storm that is about to erupt

 

With every thing he has done i can believe he beat a stock 5.0..**** he should...

 

Nice setup ya got there. And nice kill.

 

how about giving us the most obvious detail: what are you driving? C5, Fbody, GTO, TBSS, 1 ton Silverado HD 4x4, ....

 

I think he has an 02 SS.

Nice Kill by the way!!

 

Nice kill. Just got back from the track a few minutes ago. There was a 5.0 with bolt ons and a 125 shot running 10.70 @ 124. Tons of f bodies and stangs there. Get your driving nailed down and don't worry about those pesky 5.0's with that setup you have.

 

you know what I found the most surprising when I go to the track and see these new 5.0's running great times? It's not the look on the camaro clubs faces when they see a basic bolton naturally aspirated pony car running stout times: it's the worried look on all the mustang owners faces. Especially the supercharged crowd that is running near or at the same times as a bolton/tune 5.0 does. I **** you not, every one of the guys that has dropped serious coin on mods on there older stangs get that worried "oh **** I bettter mod up more" look. The stock to basic mods mustang guys, to a man, talk about trading there cars in on one. lol

 

man you get butt hurt about everything dealing with a 5.0 don't you lol.

however I somewhat agree with you. Should of expected this kill op with your mods.

 

Good kill; what did you run and what was your trap?

 

Truth

 

what shitstorm?? basically cam only ls6 (even in fbody) beat a new 5.0... seems pretty reasonable to me.....

I think i can put 2 cars or even more on my intake/hypertech 02 z06 on a new 5.0 without a problem in the 1/8th... with proper traction that is...

 

Give it a few days and you'll see what I mean. The thread will go to **** just because of the title lol

Wise beyond my years

 

No not butt hurt..Just stating obvious..

Would be like me saying i beat a camaro ss that was bone stock with my mods now. I should beat it...

5.0 are not unbeatable. I lost in mine when i was a lot less mods. It was to a ZO6 at track. He had some mods and admitted he couldnt drive it that well and still beat me 2/3 times. He spun a little one time and i beat him...I am so counting it as a kill...lol

 

Good Kill.

 

What does your GT run?

 

OP, good kill. Must've been the nerves getting to you the first time down the track. I missed 4th my first pass ever, so I know the feeling. :/

You're right, 12:1 CR, 57cc LS6 heads, pretty decent sized cam, and ported FAST with matching throttle body is basically just cam only. Sorry man, that's what you call a H/C/I setup. He got the win in the end, so all else doesn't really matter.

 

stock car with tires ran 12.12@114 <a href="http://www.youtu...tube.com</a> /watch?v=vVexXKJvQ_E

 

lol..whats funny this is true to a point. All the guys i know with older mustangs be it a GT/cobra are like what the ****. I have to do this and this and this now.

Most the new camaro guys here look a bit confused why their full bolt ons camaro is only running mid 12s.

 

cold air, tune, gears, x pipe ran a 11.88@106.w/ 1.60 60ft.lost 5th gear that why low trap speed. WAs bouncing on 5th trying to shift to it. Beofre lost 5th and was able to get a really good 60ft was trapping 115-117. One run was 11.91 @115 but shitty 1.81 60ft. If listen to video at end here issue trying get into 5th
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CwfAv33Tavg Its been replaced and now have all mods in my sig.,.Will not track it till get back from Iraq in july..Then i will expect mid 11s with the summer heat of tx.
