Thanks guys. Mustang was a no show. There was a supercharged 5.0 that was running some shakedown passes. He was running bottoms 11's, stick car, was trapping 128ish.
I had the seats out, weighed at track and was still 3800 with me in it...lol. da was in the 1100s i think.

THanks Mike, I made some passes, leaned it out a bit and softened up the iat timing pull due to high iats at the line, and then made 7 consecutive passes in the 12.40's. Car is deadly consistent.

I saw your 12.4 pass your car is running great. Im not going back on DR's thats for sure track prep was horrible lol. Ill be trailed on my wrinkle walls and skinnies next time I go back haha. my best pass was a 11.6 spinning past the 60ft with a 1.9 60ft lol.

Most reviews I hear on the 5th generation automatics is that they feel doggish in stock form. Is this true? I know it's not the LS3, it's the L99 I think, makes less horsepower and puts less power to the wheels. But does it actually feel slow in stock form?

wow 3800 with you in it is pretty damned good. Stock those cars are at 3950 or so with a full tank of gas BEFORE any driver. seems like youve lost 300lbs down the road in that thing!
