For some reason I just read every page. 
It was somewhat entertaining though
Respectfully, how does suspension help a car go faster on the 1/4 mile straight run. Tires I understand
This statement shows you know nothing about racing in the 1/4 mile and so you should not try and estimate track times that your car or any other car would do. Just sayin'
But the MT-82 thread was entertaining as well.

guess i'm just throwing gasoline on this fire but why not! 
here's a real run of a 3.7 by a member..
https://themustangsource.com/f726/finally-ran-6er-cecil-500759/
"times ranged from a worst of 14.5 @ 100.4 mph to a best of 14.3 @ 99.6 mph 2.3 60' RT .666. It was odd, because as we hot lapped more the car got faster in the traps, but the 60' & ET's dropped.."
btw.. here's the motor trend that posted that 5.1 and it's Performance Pack manual coupe, 3.31, 255/40 pirelli's, upgraded suspention.. Not your tipical v6..

You guys really take this forum serious. This must be serious business, this mustang site. You guys should relax. Enjoy. Were just having a debate. Its not like I have insulted your mother, wife or kids. Its only a vehicle my friend. A great vehicle, but wow. You guys are really intense. Good Grief, name calling. Is it really necessary for all that nasty stuff.
Can't we start over fresh. How much would it cost to buy a good quality driveshaft for my vehicle should I feel the need to drive 135 mph. Meaning, one that wont break at high speeds of 135 plus. Any recommended brands and approximate price of this piece.

I am just happy my 2011 V6 auto vert looks mean, and does what I need it too. No it doesn't sound like the v8, but she will move when needed. She wont win many races, but again, I got it to put the roof down, and its faster than the prius I traded for it

I would like the last 12 pages of my life back, please. 
Seriously, I love my car and I don't care about track times and 0-60. It makes me smile when I drive and that's all that matters. BUT, if you are someone who lives for the numbers, get a V8.
Kona, it seems like you're still trying to sell yourself on your new ride man. Its a sad thing to see. Just enjoy it and quit worrying about numbers and speeds you'll never reach.
