Hey here are some from the orlando speedworld....
The only person I know in these pics is in the white 05 roush, the fastest I saw him run was 11.15. The first run with the blue gto I ended up winning by about a half a car, then the second he killed me and ran a 12.7?. The yellow dodge lost by 2 / 2.5.

You realize the wing is slowing you down at least 2 mph in the 1/4? Removal of the factory wing on the 2002 Gt, showed an improvement of 1 mph.

The best was a 14.1 @ 101.??, that was before the 100shot and my 555r's that I just got. Come to the track next time and we will find out, I still need my rematch:D

The car was originally set up for top end without caring about 1/4 mile. At least roush told me that it would help out past 160-170. Now since I got the third set of gears put in (a while ago) I have started to care more about 1/4. If someone has a spare 99-04 trunk lid let me know I just dont want empty holes in my trunk lid.

I just used some plastic plugs from Lowes to fill the holes.

Hey I was flipping through some old magazines and realized you had that mineral gray 02' GT. Do you have anything left from it I could buy from ya? (yours was in the Aug 05' muscle mustangs and FF) if you didn't already know.:D

Check out March 2005 MM&FF (http://www.musclemustangfastfords.com/events/mmfp_0508_ford_mustang_na_two_valve_shootout/) :)

only parts I have left from the 02 are mostly stock parts. Actually I have a set of JBA Shortie 1 5/8s headers and UPR X-pipe that I need to sell.

They sold you that spoiler by convincing you it was functional above 160mph? How much time have you spent there?

Even if it does do something there how much downforce are we talking probably not much if any at all.

I usually max out at 155 with plenty left at least 2-3 times a week between .... where you and I almost raced that one time.:D

It was so horrific I just had to take a picture, the people that built it own a custom car shop here in florida somewhere, and that was another site to see plastered all over the back window in multi-colored vinyl.

It use to be shaky at 130-155 but now that I have the aluminum driveshaft it rides like my bmw did. The only thing that gets in my way now is that dam speed limiter. If it wasn't for that I would really see how fast it would go:D

why? whats the point in going 155 mph 2-3 times a week, undoubtably on public roads? putting yourself and everyone else around you at risk? Call me stupid but i think its pointless and irresponsible.

Did that black 05+ sound like it had a KB blower on it?

It didn't sound like it from what I can remember, but that doesn't mean it didn't have one. It was my understanding that he was just using n20 and bolt-ons.

I'm not disagreeing with you at all, it is. It is however far less dangerous to other people where I do it, 2-3 times a week, than say street racing in traffic from stop light to stop light, 2-3 times a week, because of the amount of people. That's why I let other people street race while I go off by myself with a 1/8th - 1/4 mile of nobody in front of me (because you have to). Anyway to answer your comment, Yes it is pointless and irresponsible and I am slowing down from what I use to be doing, so I am trying.:D

Take the wing off and use interior plugs from Auto Zone or Adanced to put in the holes, then use a washed on the underside to hold it tight. That's what I used on the yellow car and you could barely notice them.
