Pony at NE Dragway

Went with three friends of mine up to New England Dragway in Epping, NH last night. Took off from work in Mansfield, MA, traffic sucked but the night was totally worth it. One guy I came with ran his suped e36 m3 for good, low 13's, the other guy in an n/a e36 m3 ran 15's, as did the one girl that ran her e36 m3. I ran my '12 5.0/MT82, but only got two passes in. All I've done to it so far is put on Flowmaster Outlaw axle backs and FRPP K springs. My first pass sucked, first ever for this car on the factory 235/50's, I ran a 13.564 @ 108.40, with a disgusting 2.415 60'. Second pass was much better, hooked well and snagged a 12.857 @ 109.76, with a 2.062 60'. Both of those passes were made with a decent burnout, and launched in Advancetrack Sport Mode. I had a great time, had great conversations with other Mustang owners, and I can't wait to bring her back.

Got a 12-sec pass, that's awesome for first time out ... Congrats!

I've been there a bunch of times. My first time at Epping I had my 95 SHO ... my best with that car was about 15.4 ... I also took my '01 Ranger 4x4 5-speed Supercab on 32" mud tires and ran low 16's with that truck ... lol. Next was my '07 Charger, R/T AWD modded with heads/cam/tune/full exhaust, and the best I could run was a 13.7 or so ...

I can't wait to run this car and finally have a 12-second time slip in my hands ...

My first pass at Epping was in my all stock 72 Ranchero with the 172 HP 400 2 Barrel C6 Automatic, way over 17 seconds if I remember right
That was in 1979.
