oh, and btw....his name's not "Carol Shelby", it's "Carroll Shelby"....huge difference for anyone that knows how to read, even at an elementary level. i knew "Carol" Shelby was a guy back in the late 80's when i was around 13 years old and started really developing an interest in cars, before i could even legally drive for crying out loud.....

and this is coming from someone who has never even owned a mustang, and i don't plan on doing so unless i come into a lot of money and can start building up a collection of cars, or i get one for a really good price. or who knows, i may just get one to use as a daily driver one day, so i can go mod-crazy on my camaro without having to worry about rushing the job so i can use it to get to/from work.....
Good for you man, so what do you want a medal or a brownie point for knowing who Carroll is? Dang, sorry I didn't know who Carroll Shelby was, I really didn't think much of it and still don't.....I did know the name Shelby, just not Carroll.. RELAX!!!!

Shelby Cobra's are sweet, especially the 66 model's!!!

well we tried to get together last night but I couldn't find a camera person. we might try tonight if the weather is good. sorry about the delay. I know when cory orrignally posted this we were planning on racing right after, but the spray didn't work.

glad to see everyone thinks I will win, because I sure don't.

you have more power, better 1/4 et and traps, better driver, and better tire. The ONLY thing I have in my favor is weight, and thats a whoping 200lbs.

I also tend not to pay too much attention to all the newer stock Ford cars that I can beat down on a regular basis..Mach's, GT's, and most Cobra's, etc.. Piece of cake 0-60mph... Saleens and GT500's a different story...
You should learn how to bottle up that ignorance and sell it. Lord knows you have enough ooozing out of your pores.

Just personal preference. that's all. I think .5-.75CR increase would be a nice increase over an 8.5 lower TQ without causing issues. i wouldn't go over 9.25 though. Even that high depends on the size of the PD blower IMO. I would certainly stay at 8.5 with a large KB or Whipple. That's for certain. And yep.....I think 9.85+ for a Centrif is perfect. I wouldn't hesitate to go 10:1 with a D1 at 12-14 psi.

Again, personal preference, that's all.

Kid, you crack me up. your ignorance is unmatched. That I know of.

A GT40 mustang. holy crap. And I thought you couldn't be any lamer.

yep. Sad thing is, I wasn't even the first to poke fun at him in the other thread about newer machs. I was just the one to call him out and prove him wrong.
But, oh well. he wants to be mr. ignorant know it all...so be it.

LOL 200 pounds is a lot....I trapped .4mph more that you. We all know how LS-1's run on spray froma roll. And you know you can drive. Dont get me wrong should be close....I am just giving the edge to you...not just sayin that to be safe just being honest. Sorry for no vid. will be one for sure by the weekend.

Well it's to be expected from you Cobra and Mach guys... Dynotune, and Chaves you guys talk head alot so you wanna race and then the loser gets banned? 0-60mph and I'm, I don't mind putting another Ford Mustang to death as I've done it before.......

Just say when Lungar, I'll be your huckleberry!!! Ban talk is cheap and is that really the best you guys can do? Ban him drrrrr, Loooosseeerrrss!!! My old Lexus I bet will spank your funky *** Fords especially once the LS2 is in place!!!

See now you guys got me just a little pissed off...Not cool. Wow, I just felt a little earth quake while I was typing..Gotta love Califonia for a little shake and bake...

You must have thick skin on the internet man. Seems like these guys dont respect you much so work on that. More learning (we all have more to learn) and less posting.

Is there going to actually be a race here? This is why we dont do these "soon to race threads" since 75% of the time nothing happens. Let try to end this one with a Cobra win. Or an LS1 win.

Its going to get shut down tomorrow otherwise. Lets race man!

No race yet? WTF, guys? At least make it happen without a camera guy and then post up a video when you get a chance. Videos are great but I just want to know who wins. WE WANTS RESULTS!!!!
