nice dude it looks badass, what's it run on and off the spray?

atrainsgt · Sep 26, 2009

He said he has only ran it a couple times with the t56, and it went 12.6 on the engine. It went 12.2 with the same setup and a c4 so I imagine he just can't drive a stick that well. Hasn't been ran on the nitrous yet. I would imagine deep 11's.

Congrats, looks badass!

that mach looks really sweet nice buy!! keep us posted

atrainsgt · Sep 26, 2009

Thanks guys. It's not perfect but no modded car will be. I will be taking it to the track this Friday to see what it will run with me driving. The 6-speed is rather interesting, so I expect I will be pretty slow until I get use to it.

thats a nice ass car... how big of a shot it have on it?

atrainsgt · Sep 26, 2009

100 shot. I'm not a big fan of nitrous so I won't be using it much. Maybe once a month or so.

I've seen this car run before I believe

Its nice. Good luck

atrainsgt · Sep 26, 2009

Thanks. It was originally a texas car so I bet you have. It was stock at that time.

car looks nice man, have fun with it and keep it safe.

id like to drive it. =]

atrainsgt · Sep 26, 2009

Next time you are up here I'll have to race you. I won't be driving it until I get my yellow one sold though. Insurance on two mustangs isn't real cheap. Well, after next week I won't be driving it! Gotta enjoy it for a few days right?

19mustang95 · Sep 26, 2009

it ran slower with the T56 because it has lower gearing, and the auto car is usually quicker if set up correctly...

atrainsgt · Sep 26, 2009

It has more gear now too. But yeah, I expect the c4 to be quicker, but he admitted hes had auto's for so long he was slow shifting.

19mustang95 · Sep 26, 2009

well, either way, it's a nicely modded car. definitely should be in the low 12s on motor and possibly high 10s on spray.. if you ever want to sell the 15x10 telstars, let me know. i want to replace my 15x8s.

atrainsgt · Sep 26, 2009

I'll let you know. As much as I would like to run 10's I hope it doesn't because I'll need a cage. Your time is pretty darn good with the 11.57@117 - 115 Shot. Hopefully I can do that well. I'm not going to run the car on nitrous until I get use to it on the engine only.
