any want to guess the ****ty times im gonna pull with it? i say low 13s bc ive never driven a stick on the drag strip.

the car is capable of basement 12s fyi

[LeadfootCJ7]

What track are you going to?

[16MustangVet]

Stock wheels and tires? Any weight reduction?

[TEK310]

texas motorplex in ennis

yes stock wheels and tires 285/35/19 hankook ventus v12s in back

[16MustangVet]

12.5 @ 115mph is my guess

[TEK310]

with a rookie driver? nah...

[16MustangVet]

Lookin at other times from a few other forums seems like mid 12.s @ 115-117mph even from other guys that have never tracked the car with stock tires seems like getting out of the hole is key should back half decent.........

[TEK310]

appreciate the confidence you have in me. we will see. will post the results friday night or saturday morning.

[16MustangVet]

Hope you have track key id assume and id like to see the difference with abs and other nancies on vs off, doesnt that thing have removable exhaust baffles too or some shizz?

[TEK310]

no trackey, didnt get it activated.because i plan on going aftermarket for a tune. it would be a waste of 400$ if i got the trackey tune from ford. i will probably try launching in sport mode and then with no traction control at all if i do good.

i have the baffles removed. full on quad exhaust.

I think if it hooks, I say a common pass time will be: 12.65 @ 117.

[16MustangVet]

No trac key wonder what the difference will be? Or how much that's actually worth?

[TEK310]

trackey only changes driveability, does not change peak power. it changes timing, adds engine braking, has launch control(which would be great here), changes fuel maps. more power through rev range but for emissions and regulation, no "peak power" gains in horse power

[ericspecullaas]

any chance you get some video of it? on the strip i mean

[TEK310]

I will try. I want a video for sure

[dmahlikGT]

12.6-12.7 @ 114 ill say only cuz you said you never drove stick on the track.

Basement 12s is nearly as optimistic as having a cold beer with Sasquatch. Those cars do not run that hard. Don't beat yourself up for the 12.90s or so, that's what they actually run in stock trim with an average driver. Bring on the youtubes. LOL
