Stock 02 GT with drag radials and gears?

[Cayenne97]

look at the race weight though.. most are in 3300lb range... im talking car in the 2600ish lb range... cars made for the strip, not street... thats where i think you misunderstood me.. HELL no i full weight one couldnt do it..

Those weights listed in the article are with the driver! The 1st place winners car weighed in at 3000lbs. with him in it, and lets be honest, he looks like a pretty beefy guy! That's more like a 27xxlb. car without the driver. Those cars are gutted to say the least.

No seriously, go back to the link and open it if you don't believe me. It reads: "Weight with Driver". It weighs 3000lbs with him in it. That's a 27xxlb. car with nobody sitting in the drivers seat. And remember, these aren't fox bodies. They don't get as light!

My bad man, didn't mean to insult you. I thought we were just talkin' Mustangs that's all. Nothing personal.

its cool, was just getting tired of hearing things i already knew... very simple things..


honestly i could care less what a bolt on GT runs.. hahaha, dont think i have to worry about it..

[Johns00Z28]

Yeah the cars were pretty lightweight and they also had ported heads and aftermarket cams as well, which I think goes beyond the scope of "bolt-on." I was trying to illustrate that even w/ heads n cams it's still difficult to get one into the 11's.

Cool. I wonder what mods he had. Or if there was ever a video?

[BLKCLOUD]

If you wonder what his mods are enough to search that site, you'll find plenty of info.

Don't know if there is a video. I have known and raced with Ian Mullane for ~10 years - I'm quite comfortable that everything you'll find about him and that car is straight up.

So how is it that guys w/ ported heads, aftermarket cams, full bolts on, gears, suspension and stripping the car down big time still couldn't manage to run 11's?

Needs a driver mod?

[JwMonE99]

Wait has anyone taking acount that the 2V 4.6s are also set at a lower compression?
Get some forged flat top pistons and bring up the compression with some bolt and a H/C/I setup and I think 11s might just be possible with a good driver and radials. Maybe gears too.

Do you do much drag racing?

What does my drag racing have to do with the question posed?

[BLKCLOUD]

Everything.

Enough said.

[Johns00Z28]

Everything.

Absolutely nothing actually. Now let's get back on topic.

[big hammer]

yes yeah
