scrming who posted above used to get some great launchs in his car.

Basically he launched from idle or just above idle (maybe 900 to 1,100 rpm), left foot on brake. Release brake when the last yellow is lit up and push the gas at the same time you release the brake.

But if he launches well he should have the initial advantage because his car is lighter and lower geared so a 1/8 track makes it even tougher..

Is he modded?



The stock 04 mustang GT is better from a drag but not really any better from a roll. There are several videos showing a Camaro V6 taking these cars on the street.
Yeah auto and manual v6 camaro's taking automatic 2v Mustang GT's but no auto *Stock Camaro V6's taking manual 2v Mustangs......

260hp I thought those Stangs were 245hp and went to 300hp in 05'. Maybe that model was 245 until 03' and 260 in 04'.

no updates. unfortunately he didnt get to make it out. but i did manage a 9.7 at the track once. other than that it was a consistent 9.9 or 10.0.
another friend with an 08gt was there though, it was pretty even on the launches. although he would pull ahead to run a 9.0 or 8.8
