Not liking the window sticker and apparent lack of temp plate though...

EDIT: It does have a windshield sticker though, so fingers crossed it's a bought car
.
Looks like an NMRA banner.

Not my video, I found it on YouTube. As was mentioned in my first post, the 60 time was 1.69. The only available info is in the video. I suggest you ask your questions there.

Ok, I hadn't realized it was a link. So it's uncapped and a 1.69 60 ft with a whole bunch of wheelspin only means that there is a lot more left in it. I also kind of think the shifting was a little too early, idk...More details on this run please.

Here's another video. Same car and track, bone stock. 12.36 @ 116.4.

Lots of sliding on this run.

Impressive! Who says a handling track car,can't get the job done in a straight line too!
Wonder what the 4th gear RPM's where thru the traps?

That's unreal. I could tell my car really pulled, but never figured it'd run sub 12 stock in the 1/4. Gotta love the window sticker still on the car. That's one way to break it in Let's just hope it's wasn't driven back to the dealer's showroom for PDI before delivery to the buyer

Haha ! Maybe the customer was like....Take her to the 1/4 ! Break her in !

I was snooping on Camaro5 and their even like..*.............* So one of the mods said "oh its the red key"...and someone else informed him..."Um that key is not available yet....."

Lol. Nice times and drive. That guy can drive...also did you hear the tires squirting through the gears...wow.

The word must be out already. I was cruising home on the interstate Sunday after banging around on some back highways breaking her in when lo' and behold what do I see bearing down in my rear view mirror? Here comes an orange Camaro with white stripes in the fast lane a few hundred yards back. He must have picked me up about a hundred yards out because all of a sudden......he's not closing anymore I even rolled by my exit just to see what he'd do. I ended up taking the next alternate exit to my house and he just hung back there the whole way.

Sounds like the BOSS is commanding respect on the streets as well.

I'm not sure why you guys wouldn't think the boss would crank the 1/4. It's a Mustang with 440 hp after all.

That is good to see! I was thinking that I could do the 11s with DRs.
My 2001 Cammer 5.0 is 12.2@113 with the IRS while I baby'd it out
of the hole with 1.9 60' This will be a fun summer. I also, would like to
hear more about details on the 1/4 mile runs!
