Default mach 1 trouble

I've had this red mach 1 rolling around town reving on me everytime he saw me, but only when Im parked or going the other way. Finally yesterday I found him on the interstate got up beside him. We slow to about 55. I let out at about 120 with atleast a good 5-6 car lenghts. Didnt even have my stall on yet. (4000 stall coming next week) cant wait. Maybe this will get him off my back for a while.

Yea, I think the word "trouble" in the title is misleading . Nice kill.

Mach 1s can be very quick, but with your mods nothing to worry about. I've seen some run low 13s on just DRs. I was very surprised to say the least. I'm not sure if they were underrated or not.

Good kill!

They were very under rated.....Stock M5s are 275-285 RWHP (some have dyno'd 290+ SAE corrected).


Nice Kill......

Lol, I agree, I thought you lost. It may or may not keep him off your back though just depends on his mentality.

Good kill.

TRMach1, just because one Mach 1 ran a low 13 stock doesn't mean they all will. It'd be like saying that every LS1 f-body will run a low 13, it's just not the case.
