well the first thing that we need to do is to set a date... whether it is just to meet and cruise or to go to the track... lemme know fellas
Looks like the idea for a Michigan Stangnet get together died, so allow me to raise it from the dead. Hows about Milan Dragway on the 6th of August? I'll be there. I know Dale is planning on coming, how about you Mossberg? Ford Supefest 2005 Milan Dragway Saturday August 6th Any one else? If not, I'll be in Mustang Alley for Woodward again this year.
Mustang Alley is 9 Mile and Woodward. Jay, I don't think I'll make it but there's a SLIGHT possibility. I am going home to put my Prochamber back on the car that replaces my other Prochamber that I'm letting my cousin have. I'll definately call you if I can make it.
Alright guys, since I couldn't make it, I want some reports! How'd you guys fair? How was the prep work? Slips? I wish I could have made it but I didn't get my Prochamber on until yesterday.
Track was fair as always at Milan. Didn't do as well as I thought I would, but then again I only had a few passes. Weather was a little hotter than expected, but then again this is Michigan. I did get my 60' times into the 1.9's, but I need a little more practice as far as playing with the tire pressure and launch rpm. My best of the day (if you want to call it that) was a sorry 1.96 60' and a 14.14@97.?? mph. I don't have the slip with me right now other wise I'd post all the #'s from it. That was launching at 5K and shifting at 5,600. When it get's cooler and I do a little more playing, I should be able to run mid 13's.
Taking into account you have a vert, I won't beat you up too bad! Hit some backstreets and pratice that launch jk You probably drive better than I ever could.
I'll probabally hit Lapeer or Ubly a few times to practice a bit more then I plan on heading back to Milan on ths 10th of September and the 8TH of October for the Sport Compact v.s. Domestic races. Launching with DR's is a lot different than street tires. Whan are you getting you axle done? Did you get your shafts yet? Did you call DTS?
Hopefully I should be ordering the axles by next week. If I can stop buying other crap then I would have had the whole rearend setup by now. I have to decide whether to just order a SCT Xcal 2 or speedcal. I don't have mil elims on my car either so I'm leaning on the tuner to correct both issues. I'll definately be at Dream Cruise this year.
You should have driven my car back in June. You would have had your rear axle done the very next week. After you get it done though you'll love it, but I'll bet you'll be ordering a pair of 17x9's and some Drag Radials.
Actually I am thinking of buying some 17x10.5 deep dish bullit rears with DRs mounted. The only issue is that the deep dish bullits don't match the 01-02 stangs anthracite color. They match the 03-04 wheels. I might say **** it and just go with Saleens all around. 18x9 and 18x10
