I brought what I said Id bring and I did what I said Id do!
This is how it went down:

Mustang Challenger
RT-.0985 .1191
60'-1.75 1.79
330'-7.32 7.53
1/8-7.82@88.85 8.05@86.22
1000'-10.23 10.51
1/4-12.27@110.07 12.58@108.54

Tree'd,ET'd,60'd,MPH'd-All the marbles boys and girls.
On a serious note it was great to meet Tony and his GF,they are great people (everyone there was good folks) I have to tell you Tony is an exp'd racer and knows his way around a car and track (that is the hardest running Challenger ive ever seen Rt or SRT for that matter),id hate to have to bracket race him for points becuase anybody going up against him would have their hands full.It was a great day and look forward to seeing Tony at the track in the future.......videos and the rest of the story will be provided by 10second im sure in a bit!

as much as i dont like the outcome...i will be the first to say congrats on the win man. you backed up your words!

I sort of expected it to be this way. I didn't figure he would drive all the way to Thompson to get beat. He has a nice, good running car. Actually it was a good race...only separated by 3 tenths. If I had been on the tree it would have been closer at the stripe.

I am still working on my car....so we will have more than one rematch I am sure.

But Kudos to Ted for his win!!

I see it like this-met another car guy thats passionate about racing,passed a Saturday at a dragstrip,had some fun,seen some nice cars,roadtrip listening to a V8 through headers-that my friends is the REAL WIN. Truth of the matter is I didnt want to go this morning when the other strip closed. I split my thumb open on an automatic shotgun yesterday,my arthritis in my leg was killing me,tired,cold out,and the drive BUT.....I said id go and do this so I did.

P.S. Im sure we will run again......maybe if im LUCKY im might find a lil more in the bag for the lil 4.6!

Congrats man It was close! You got a bad running lil Ford there! Care to share your set up now?

Congrats to the german. but 10sec did just what he said he would do 12.5. Its nice to know what the other guy runs before you actually run. So enlighten us on this 4.6 with just a tune, intake and exhaust. This is the same way we did it on the street... racers edge. But you will have to admit 5.7 to 4.6 the mighty Hemi is putting down some ponies. And that "is" with a tune, intake (sorta) and exhaust. Nice fun for all and we look forward to the rematch.

Glad you guys had fun. Wish I lived at a lower elevation near some other tracks. Would love to have you show me how to drive.

Shepherd let me get this straight. As far as mods, you have the C&L intake/ARH headers/and a tune? And that's it? What was the DA that day? Because low 12's is pretty much a phenomenon with just those mods.

I use Zmax in my engine to run those times. Carroll Shelby endorses it and he wouldnt say to use it if it didnt work!

Riptide

LOL this stuff? Good joke.

C'mon man what else you got on that car? I'm not calling you a liar but low 12's is pretty amazing in a GT with just headers, intake, and tune. Still on stock tires?
