New best in the stang

Took the stang out for a night at the track to see what she could do with the new springs. On the old Ford Racing springs it did a 12.8@113mph on a 2.0 60'.

 

Run 1)launch at 5500, letting off the throttle off the line

60'-1.91

330'-5.40

1/8th- 8.24@ 85.54mph

1000'-10.63

1/4-12.66@ 111.65

 

Run 3) launch at 5500, dead hook

60'-1.77

330'-5.19

1/8th- 8.0@ 85.75mph

1000'-10.41

1/4-12.46@111.89

 

Run 3) Launch at 6k, dead hook

60'-1.65

330'-5.12

1/8th- 7.96 @85.18

1000'- 10.37

1/4- 12.40@ 111.38 mph

 

So a new PB of 12.40 @111.38mph, with a 1.65 60'! I ended up leaving early due to the clutch slipping in the higher rpm's in 4th gear during the last pass. I feel some 12.30 or even a 12.20 is do able with this ride. I couldn't believe that I managed a 1.65 60' out of this heap!

 

Also... this is a stock clutch, axles, and trans with 91k miles on them.

Niiice 60 footers. I'm assuming you got drag springs? What kind are they?

 

 

Yep,Eibach's. My car is a convertable, and I spoke to Eibach about if there would be a problem running them on a vert. They had no clue, said I would have to find out. They worked out great, and the car sits a little shorter then stock.
