It was an automatic car and the 12.32 was on a drag radial at Englishtown on a cold day. 12.44 was bone stock on the same day.
Traps were between 107 and 109 mph, which I think is low for a car rated 435 at the flywheel.
The 2010 Roush, which was a stick car and was run at a track in Florida, ran 13.26 @ 107.8 mph. This is more indicitive of what you'll see with a regular driver, and is slow for a 435 flywheel horsepower Mustang IMO
Here's the 2008 automatic:

Here's the 2010 5-Speed:

Nice kill in the G8! Looks like the 427R's need some more *****. Must have felt good to pull him like that in a family sedan. I'd like to run one now too lol. And your girls comment was pretty funny at the end of the first video. Thanks for sharing!
Is anything done to the G8?

If bought new least 16k on top of what a GT cost.
Used today can be had for 30-45k depending on year, mileage, etc etc.
Can you say WAY OVER PRICED!

Also not sure the G8 posted his mods. But he does have cam, head work, and full bolt ons. Ran a 12.0 rolling into the throttle in bad air. He does mention else where his car with a good launch should run mid 11s.
So take that and what some have said the 427R runs makes sense he would walk away from it.

I hop i can run 12.0 rolling in to the throttle though, I sure wouldn't mind

The last one was actually worse lol but you can't really see in the video other than his blue headlights disappearing rather quickly from the side of me.
Usually when i post street racing videos they dont get many comments. I wonder whats different about this one.

No, they really were intended for people who wanted a really nice looking mustang is all: when you see a hot *** blonde with a killer body, do you ever go "I wonder how smart she is?". 'her' money definitely went into plastic surgery and not a college degree. Same with a Roush.

With a car like that you're paying for more than just the extra horsepower over a regular GT. Definitely not for everyone, but hardly a car should be judged on it's performance alone.

Agree. But I still think if all people want is looks why want extra ponies? Just buy the base GT and make it look good or get a base roush....
Good kill OP. I've been tryin to tell everyone that mustangs are slow
does anyone know how much they weigh?
