If your Mach is truly hungry it should do what it does best -EAT RICE.
You're a crybaby panzy that gives the cool Fbod guys a bad name.......I mean seriously......you have a worse ET time, and your lame *** comeback is "I have a better MPH"?...
I mean, we are still talking DRAG RACING, right?

What's your 60ft? That directly determines your time.

There are no Mach's on that list with just gears running 12.x. There is one with DRs only running 12.99.
The quickest bone stock ones have gone 13.09, 13.13, and 13.17 with a MPH of 104-106.
While it is possible that a Mach with gears, but otherwise completely bone stock, can and has run in the 12s, I haven't heard of it, and it would certainly be the exception, vice the rule.
And btw...this is by no means meant to be derogatory towards the Machs....I really like the cars.

I raced a stock 04' mach from a 30 roll in my stock 00 Z28, side by side for awhile but at around 80+ i slowly pulled away. both autos.
i agree i love the cars too but the LS1 has a little more top end.
