Lol, obviously your not thinking to well. "Professional Drivers" plague the magazines and tv shows, and you see that they get sometimes "slow" times compared to an enthusiast.

I have seen "professional drivers" get 106mph in a 03 Cobra...and the list goes on...

Just because one drives a fast car doesn't mean they are a good driver in any particular car...

Think this one thru;)
I am talking fun ford weekend not mag.

Cold temps can hurt track times...cold air isn't always the best. The density of water in the air is an effect to...

An internal combustion engine runs off air/fuel, not air/fuel/a bit of water:)

How do you know you have been to the track more than he has?

I ran an 11.1 at a 1000ft. track my first time ever driving the bone stock 04 Mach 1...I know that is the equivalent of a low 13...so I'm sure with an experienced driver behind the wheel of a 4v/solid axle and good weather/track prep for grip, a high 12 is possible.

I stay at the track unless it is raining. Different car pull different on topend so there is no equivalent. And anything is possible but not likely high 12's(I dont think I will see it on street tires, not dr).

It is not mis info so. There have been more than a few run slower. I said there are some freaks and Im at the track a lot more than you. A paper tag 2 years after production I bet it was stock(paper tag does not mean stock). What was his 60'. That's got to be 1.8, 1.9,or faster. It also depends on what track you are at. I am not at sea level or cold temps.



Oh yea im sure you know how much I visit the track:rolleyes:
You dont even have a clue that on what a Mach 1 can run down the 1/4 so I wont be listening to your babble or bad advice to people...whats next 03 cobras dont run 12's stock:notnice:
And yes the car was completely stock since everyone there was looking it over after disbelief...sure it was about 40 degrees outside but hey

Nice, find something else to do...:)

You may not see it on street tires, but someone else might. I'm just saying, do not rule out that they can't do better than a 13.1 in the quarter.

Plus, E.T. don't mean much to me, it is the mph they trap.

They pull different because their is different drivers, shift points, air, weight, etc...
 
There is a guy in the Mustang club im in, he has a Mach with just a catback and that car hauls freakin balls.

They are a great car, and I want to buy one when prices come down on them.

Faster than Cobra's (non 03/04), but a little less power.
