I also wish you luck on your build.
Yes I agree there tires are huge 29 I think. I am very much a believer in alot of gear from low rolls and digs i think it makes a car that much harder to beat. Only time it may hurt is if you have to put it in a higher gear but that is why roll racing can be deceiving.

The machs are 0-2 this week and about to be 0-3. I'm racing the same Mach 1 I put 4+CL's on during our highway runs. He Added Some bolt ons and tires. He's so persistent about running again but I keep telling him those mods won't make up for those 4 car lengths. From a dig he will get the jump but I will reel him in quick once we get rolling. Nice kill op

BTW automach says bolt on Mach 1's can outrun pulled cobras lol
Yea your right man bolt-on machs have nothing for those chargers on 22s I did beat the cobra from a 20 and I had the vid to prove it but I forget your the only person whos youtube vids count lol better not lose to that stock vert cobra lol

Yea because a stock ss is so hard to beat. lol

Why would they be excluded?

Last one I raced was running low 13s high 12s with Boltons, welds, drag radials ect, he got rapped 3 out of 3 on the top end of the track. From what I remember he was trapping 107 maybe to my 112-113, on the street forget it. Just what happen in this vid is what it is.

I've noticed this for a while now...you cater to the "home" crowd and put your jabs in on Ford just to be welcome. Why didn't you put an LS in your notch instead of a 4.6?

I agree 100% I ran a Full Bolt on Mach 1 that ran 12.3@107 and the only reason he ran that is because he was on drag slicks and had gears. He looked confused when I left his *** from a roll. Im not saying our Tug boats are street terrors but stock and bolt on Mach 1's are just not impressive or as fast as their owners make them seem. But we figured that out about 5 years ago so I dont know why all of a sudden they are getting attention again lol
