Do I Have A Chance?

It chaps my azz every time I think about our era's wimpy starting point, 215 hp v8, c'mon ford... Now I gotta throw alot of money at it just to be on par w modern v6's.
i hear you,i threw allot of time and money into my car just to get the average mid to high 12s that i should be running,hopfully anyway!,still damn fun to drive though..
 
:uzi:Your Mopar!! Umm my 86 runs 12's with the bottle also. The op was talking about a stock STR8 vs his car. Not your car. Pretty much everybody knows the "new" era muscle cars are more powerful than a bolt on 5.0. But I do call:bs: On stock mid 12 ets. Not here at my track. And I go there a lot. With a bottle...sure. Forced induction yup. Stock...no f'ing way


LOL...my STOCK srt ran 12s....STOCK no power adders needed..Yes my car does have power adders now...so no it isnt stock.
 
Srt8s dont run 14s only if the person cant drive maybe.....

I'm not meaning to offend you. SRT8s run 14 second quarter mile times the same way stock Mustangs run 16 second quarter mile times. The truth is that most people can't drive. I'm just trying to point out that comparing two cars is one thing. I think the Mustang should be a hair faster. That's my opinion. But that has very little to do with winning a race. Good driving wins races far more often than a faster car. The OP is asking if he has a chance based on what kind of modifications he has done, when it really isn't all that relevant.

Well all i can say is i feel bad for those people that own them they cant DRIVE.....like i see new mustangs going 13s and new camaros 13s...they cat drive...oh well....I can i have no problem running mid 12s with mine....
 
My hemi ram would habitually destroy mustangs. Even back in 03 and 04 there were a bunch of us running deep 12s in a full size truck with just bolt ons.
