What do you think I will run?

[Venom351R]

His car with the mods he listed should run better than a 14.4 now and that is what im going by when i say 13.6

You cant say what a car will run based on mods when the drivers experience is not known at all as far as driving at the track, the track conditions, or the altitude of the track. Ive beaten plenty of cars that were faster/putting down more power then mine but I simply out drove them.

You cant take mods and base track times off from it. XXX mods dont = XX.XX times at the track.

I not trying to start conflict I just think that his car with the work he has done should run better than mine does stock that was a 14.4 and that is what im going by when I say it should run a 13.6 Just my opinion.

So am I just supposed to think everybody sucks at driving and say their car will run a 17 flat or tell them what it should run like they asked. I'm not a professional driver and my car ran what it ran.

 

[1996slowstang]

And by the way Venom351R your times are pretty quick.

Based on the times posted by many members on here over quite some time, your times are unusually quick for a stock NPI 4.6 motor. Although it would be inappropriate to say that everyone sucks at driving and their car will run a 17 flat, it would be similarly inappropriate to say that everyone's stock (or even modded) NPI will perform the way yours has.

Based on that reasoning, and what my experience has been with various forum members here over time, I am in agreement with Venom351R - it is unlikely the car will run 13.6.

Over and out.

Paul.

 

[Mr.Bolt-on]

Would he run close to a 13.6 with say, a 5 speed?

Why should my car be any different than the next guys.

I wouldent see why not

I didn't say your car is any different than the next guys, I said your ET is unusually quick if it is indeed stock.

Not only that, but speculating about what people will or won't run is predominantly a gargantuan waste of time anyway. If they want to know, it's best to go find out.

It is indeed stock,with the optional 3.27 gears that ford offered.I didn't relise that every other non pi car is slower than mine, stock vs stock car.

 

[justinschmidt1]

My auto NPI with nothing more than 3.73s and a rigged exhaust system was running about the same times as yours with similar 2.2 60 foot times.

Your car is faster than a lot of stock npi's but then again, I think my car was too.

How are they so different if they usually Dino at 190ish HP?I know that the 3.27 gear is a advantage over the 2.73 and that is probably where its at and of coarse the driver because i know these cars all run the same +/- a couple tenths same driver, same track,etc.

 

[Mr.Bolt-on]

I have personally never seen an sn95 gt with 2.73 gearing, but I'm sure they exist... I've only seen 3.27 and 3.08.. Now every stock geared 94-98 v6 I've seen has been 2.73.

2.73 gear was in alot of them.

Thanks it has a lot more in it, after the new mods I was trapping 110 MPH, just has traction and launching issues b/c its not set up for drag racing but Im fixing that w/ the next round of mods.

My 95 GT had 2.73 gears in it

 

[1996slowstang]

I wish my car was that quick than i could run with my brothers Honda that runs 12.97 at a 112mph on dry rotted street tires.

 

[Venom351R]

Id hate to lose to a honda. My win/loss this past season was not to bad, I think I beat people more times then not, Id have to go through my timeslips to be sure but I hate losing to imports in general

 

[1996slowstang]

Me to but it takes so much money to get where my brother is at right now.he has a honda civic hatch back with gsr and a turbo pushing 8psi.
