Just because your vert was trapping 103.7 doesnt mean if a cammed GT trapps 104 he is a bad driver. I for one have a cammed GT 2 280ish RWHP and trapped 104 at best. I went from 5500RPM shift points to 6300ish...best trap came about at a combo of 6-6200RPM shifts and a cool down. For instance, I went on a WED night with crappy prep. When i would spin and get a 2.2 60' the car would trap 101-102...when I hooked as best as possable 1.95-2.0s the car would trap 103-104. Its very possable for a cammed GT to trap 104. (and yes im a good driver

Far cry from 103.7 that you get on SLICKS
(unknown weight reduction) Not to mention your track is 60ft above sea lv...mine is 660. My corrected times were 13.02 @ 106.3 BTW. STREET tires @ 30PSI and full weight. Track #s can be decieving due to weather, and you CANT compare traps when your using slicks(or even DRs really) and we are on streets. And you CANT say that if a cammed GT is trapping 104 then he cant drive.Just thought I would point that out...your statement was too open. So it is possable.
EDIT: im NOT saying that this was not the case the day he went to the track( that the guys in cammed stangs couldnt drive) My above statement was for general use only, since your term seemed in general. My bad if you were meaning that they couldnt drive since he was also traping 104.
that 13.19 was also without plenum and throttle body which was sold and removedhotmustang331 said:Just because your vert was trapping 103.7 doesnt mean if a cammed GT trapps 104 he is a bad driver.

Amazing what traction, weather, and good driving can do
. From what I have seen (and personal experiance) the better your 60ft, the better your trap if your shiftpoints stay the same.

This summer, I was stuck in the 9.3-9.4s at the 1/8 mile track here. I just got back from the track today and it was my first time with 4.10s. I was hitting 9.1s.
Before the 4.10s, my best was actually a 9.0. But that happened once on a cool spring day. I bet I'll get into the 8.9s once it cools off here in hell... I mean Texas.

Just a hunch here but the Napierville track is the EXACT same one where that guy with practically no mods at all claimed to be running a 12.9x @ 107x !!!
I seriously think this track has something up with it, as I recall a couple other people that corroborated the story also had some pretty crazy times at that exact track.
Either that track has INSANE traction out of the hole or their sensors are out of calibration.. or MAYBE.. they do it on purpose ??

I picked up .7 tenths with 4.10's and my Predator. Now I just need more practice and some D/R's.

I don't know, WS6 was only trapping 103-104. maybe something with the beams and car bodies causing this.Dave2000GT said:

I've been there quite a bit and never seen any crazy times like 12.9 in a stock car. If he did get a 12.9 timeslip common sense would tell you thats not possible in a stock 4.6 mustang. Next time im home on vacation and get a chance, im going to atco. It'll be interesting to see what i run there
