Maybe John will post his times. I did not run. Way too hot.
DA last night was 2429 ft. 84*F, 29.79 baro, 54% humidity

That's why everyone was running 3 to 4 tenths slower than normal.

Those were 17x9 Camaro SS rims. I have the 17x8 GTO rims sitting in my garage. I looked at the DRs today. Because the rim was 1 inch wider you could actually see where the tire make more contact with the track.

Obviously I didn't pay that much attention when we were putting them on or as I sat there bleeding them down :)

Claimed just an X pipe and removed a fog light that blocked the air intake.

If they keep the weight the same when they come out with that new 5L those things are gonna be nasty.

I agree, but he had to have been modded more & just wasn't giving it up. Rick from Livernois can probably add more about how fast the newer Mustangs go with mods.

How come? Wheel hop? Do I need to get the BMR trailing arms too?

Also, are you going to getter the Pedder bushings associated with the trailing arms, (ie the trailing arm bushings)?

I could feel the wheel hop while doing my burnouts. I don't think you need other bushings for the BMR... Aren't those a factory replacement?

BMR trailing arms come with bushings installed. Just bolt 'em up.

Do you have to take the wheels off to install the BMRs??

We did mine in the driveway. Yes for easier access to the bolts you need to take the wheels off.

John I told you in good air you'd be a 12.60/12.70 car because that night everyone was 3 to 4 tenths off. Well I just put your time 13.04 in the DA correction calculator and look what showed up.

And if I put mine in from the night I ran a 11.95 I get:

Let me know how the BMR's work out for you. I was getting crazy wheel hop going into 2nd my last time at the track.

I've seen a few 2010 guys claiming high 12's with minor bolt-on's. The guy you raced is actually on a Mustang forum we post on and he said his only mods are an X-Pipe and UCA. It does have factory 3.73 gears as well.

Here are a few 2010's we built...

Now they just need more boost. With the low compression engine and ported heads, they only make about 9 lbs.

I saw the 3.73 was an option and was thinking maybe he had them.

I did pretty much the same thing Wed night at US 13 Dragway in Delmar DE.

Can somebody correct my run. 2.00 60ft 13.35 @104.8

It ran real consistent all night, just slow. LOL

thanks,

Hi Rick!

That's quick for minor mods on those Mustang's. I told my buddy Ryan that lives in Belleville that he needs to head over to you guys. He's got a 09 Bullitt with 3.73 gears, & I told him he needs LT's and a Tune and he be lovin' his car even more!

It's decent for a car that's been out less than a month, but they have more than minor mods. Each car has over $30,000 in parts alone + labor. I'd say with a pulley swap and 14-15 lbs of boost they would run extremely well.

Tell you buddy if he's in the area to come check out the shop. I have a Bullitt here now I think he would like! :secret:

I told my buddy Ryan he has to at least get a tune, but if he did headers too, I'm sure he'd be even happier.
