I ran 12.9x @ 110 stock in mine in FL heat. They are hard to launch. They aren't as slow as everyone thinks they are with a competent driver.

mine was an auto... night and day compared to launching a stick car. Went 11.4 at 120 on that same pass. Rolled it out to a 1.71 60. Had a high 1.5X in it with a drag radial. Very nice MPH for a stock car

My Goat ran pretty well, I know 110 is not the norm. I bought it brand new back when they came out, 2000 miles on it(Dealer demo). I would have just paid it off a few months ago if I'd kept it.

It's dual 3.5" exhaust with Dynomax Ultra Flo mufflers. It's all stainless, unfortunately the 3.5" Ultra Flo's aren't made from good quality stainless. I didn't realize it until my friend looked at them and put a magnet to their cases and it stuck.

The exhaust I had on it was 3" and had a lot of crimped bends, so I'm hoping that the larger diameter and mandrel bent bends will help free up a little hp and mph.
Who needs mufflers.

Just like anything else you can make it fast. Also pretty easy to make them lighter. Which the 07-09 GT500's really weren't that much faster stock so I don't understand the hate

I don't like loud cars, and I don't think my neighbors would like my car being loud

Besides, loud cars draw a lot of attention on the street

LoL, that's what I like about it at the drag strip. People don't see it coming because they associate loud with being fast.

I don't mind loud right now. But I don't always think loud is fast. I actually though about putting my stock mufflers back on to muffle mine some. That or GT500 mufflers. Which will most likely happen when I do long tubes.

I've heard the GT 500 mufflers are heavy, but they sound really good on the new 5.0's.

My Mach ran 7.9 in the 1/8th with just a few bolt ons (see sig) and only the 2nd time down the track. I'm hoping for 7.7 next time out with more seat time.

Keep us posted. I have come to realize after meating Caleb (white Mach1 I raced) that not all Mach 1 owners are douchebags, as Automach would have you believe. Car runs good Stoppy, can always appreciate a guy who runs his car, not his mouth.
