I ran a 11.23@118

My earlier assumption was correct.

I've seen many TT small block stuff that hasn't run right or their still working on it or something's broke, whatever the excuse may be, and it runs very unimpressive numbers.

There are WAY more than 5 or 6 syclones that'll leave a 11.2 RWD car in the dust on the street. Any Sy that runs 11.60 or better would have you covered, mabey even slower. Kris Olson's old Sy that ran a best of 12.4 mowed down tons of 11.70 cars on the street, I think a couple than ran 11.5's if they were spinnin a lot. In front of a large crowd of people, ask Kris or Mark L. We've all seen it.

ok, let me here how a low 11 second run whilst letting off at the 1000' mark makes your assumption of a 12 second Mustang correct?

Or that I'm not running the times? Please dude, don't do this, you're really reaching now. For your info, that's a mid 10 run at mid 120mph trapspeed. So I let off for the sake of my motor. Big deal. At least I'm not speculating that my car is faster than 99% of all other cars of a certain make. You've been the only halfway intelligent dissenter to my opinion here, don't blow it now.

no doubt, but were not talking about an 11.2 car, and were not talking about all those other cars you mentioned. We're talking about my car with me driving. Believe me, if I roll up on my ET streets, which I do a lot of the time, the launch benefit is negligible.

I never said your mustang runs 12's. I never once called it a 12sec car. I simply said it ran 11.2, giving you accurate credit for the time you ran.

I fully understand that you didn't make your ideal pass, I've done the same in the past. I also agree, it's not worth wreckin parts. However, MY syclone last year ran a 12.47 @ 105.6 You may look at that and say the MPH is kinda low. Well, my torque converter doesn't lock. On MOST, not all, but MOST Sy/Ty's, locking the converter gives you about 2 tenths and will pick some MPH aswell. So can I post that my truck has ran a 12.26 @ 109. FUCK NO! My best pass on paper is a 12.47 @ 105.6, regardless if it was broke or not. I now have a brand new built trans and 2800 stall w/ lockup. Now I SHOULD be able to run faster than my previous times by at least a couple tenths. Do I know what it'll run, No. I can guess. Guessing isn't good enough for me when it comes time to brag about how fast shit is because someone is going to call me on it and I'm fucked. If I go around town saying my truck runs 12.1 @ 110, someone is going to ask for the slip, someone will ask for a date and at what track, then I go, "uuhhhh, well, I uh uh haven't actually run that yet..." and I look like a homo. Thats all I'm sayin. By the numers you have, there's a good chance it may go 10's, but right now, it hasn't. It's a 11.2 mustang, and there are many Sy/Ty's that will beat an 11.2 mustang on the street.

As far as the 99% thing. Like I said, there are MILLIONS of mustang on the streets from 1964.5 to 2004. MILLIONS! Yes there are a lot of mustangs that are fast, there are a lot of mustangs that are modified, but I'm willing to bet that less that 1% of those TOTAL PRODUCTION cars, would beat my truck in the 1320. Now this doesn't mean 99% of stangs at the track, or out street racing, this is 99% of total mustang production.

Same with the Syclone thing. There were 2995 made. A bunch have been smashed, some are still bone stock, some are fast, several run low 10's, one runs 9's. The point is, there are WAY more than 5 or 6 Syclones of the 2995 that can beat an 11.20 mustang on the street.

Sy2206, I got ya. My only point is that saying my car is an 11.2 car is misleading, I'm not guesstimating that it will run mid 10's. Has it? No. But based on much experience and what it has done with me coasting the last 300 ft, yes it will. It's a little different than if I was to never have gone to the track, and be talking what it MIGHT do, based on my mods, but that's not what's happening.

dR. jEckLe,

here's some pics of a couple months ago, not real good quality, but you can get the idea. I'm planning on taking a whole spiel of good daytime pics, when all the welds are cleaned up....

Gezus, I KNOW i dont have to read any of these posts, but i did. And all i can say is this is 'flucking' rediculous, IMO we (syty'rs) are too good for this shit. Why argue about gay shit like this. Stangfreak, why dont u just make it to the 04 nationals so we all dont have to talk shit behind keyboards?? If roberto hurt ur feelings, we dont give a shit.

Looking forward to 04 Nats so I can hang around my good ol syty buddies. Even the so called "immature" and "idiot" ones.

EDIT:
P.S. Nice looking mustang under the hood. Did you read my 'syty kill' post about me beating a 5.0 that 'looked' similar and was on NOS. NO way it was TT but, it was still a 5.0. :lol: later.
