Cool. BTW- Life long Stiller fan here! Even though my parents have had 9ers season tix since before I was born in '71. I did break down and get PSL's in the new stadium though. I figure I get to see PIT at least every 5 years or so there!

Dropped off my girls at school today. The girls said that everyone was telling them what a cool car they had!

Went to the track!

Surrounded by snakes on the way there!


They both have me in power!


A little burnout:


Not a bad launch for street tires:


From the rear:


Need to clean her up!:



My best pass of the day was a 10.39 @ 104mph in the 1000'. The closest track to me isn't a full 1/4 mile, but it beats an 1/8 mile. I have drag radials coming, so that should help me out some.

How did you do compared to them? What were their times.
If your just running street tires, there's no need to do smokey burnouts. Just roll around the water box if you can, then just a quick spin to clean them.

With a burnout and hot tires I was cutting 1.9 60' times. Without the burnout I was doing good to get a 2.2.

The 2012 is pretty modified. To the tune of 650 rwhp. The 2013 is stock. Both are considerably faster then I am. In a year or so I'll have the cash to buy a TVS for the Boss, so I'll even things up a bit.

Found and bought a take-off set of 2013 GT500 axelbacks and then ordered a new valance from Tousley Ford. Yay!! Oh, and my girlfriend said my M&H drag radials showed up this week (I'm in California working). The wheels showed up last week. Another yay!!

You will love the improved sound. Do you have modified restrictor plates for the side exhaust?

No, the stock plates are in. It was too loud for my taste with them out (after I put in the Jegs cat delete pipes). I had to quiet it down some.

To be fair it's a car wash, he was driving a car through it. Not like he bought a new BMW with the matte paint that you have to sign a waiver for.

Quite right, no plates at all = too loud. That's why I said modified plates, the ones that a certain forum member was selling that came in various diameters from 1/2" to 1". I have the 3/4", which seems to be the most popular, and love them.

It's a little too late now, but in the owners manual it specifically states NOT to take the Boss to a car wash. At least it did on the 12's.
