Raced a new 5.0 Mustang last night. The wind was blowing hard towards us. I launched in 4wd and couldn't shift back out so I know that cost me. The track is at 3700ft elevation. I ran 13.5 @ 99.71 and he ran 13.46 @ 106. I beat him in the 1/8th by .2 of a second.

It was my first time at the track so I know my times can improve a lot. With my new engine, races like this should be no contest. Forgive the shaky camera work, it was my 11yo son's first time videoing.

what was ur 1/8 time?

 

The Wind sounds Horrible. Good run though considering weather conditions.

 

damn that mustang needs a new driver

 

Good run man!

Your kid did a good job videoing, tell him atta boy for first time.

Wind sounded nasty. If it EVER quits raining here i will get some track time in.

 

you did good for your first time and the wind. Next time I bet you'll do better.

 

Nice run. Do you do your own tuning?

 

 

Next time u do it.. Start off with 4 x4 then 2 wd and you will be way faster... Thank you for showing that mustang what's up lol

 

Hope you get to line up with him again. I'm waiting for the rematch numbers.
