Blue 18 goes 10.53 at 132.44

[Stang007]

I took Blue to mod nationals in Georgia. Ran a new PB of 10.53 at 132.44. I was excited considering im still using the stock converter. Before mod nationals we installed a Cobra Jet with 69mm tbody and headed out. We did all the changes on the tune at the track. We will get Blue dialed in over the winter on the dyno. Look forward to going faster in 2020

Nice! Looks like a horse on its hind legs in that last photo.

Or that ant from a bug's life.

How much does it weigh? That it lifts the tires with a 1.5 sixty & a 10.5 ET.

What he said ???

Yes its all motor. Its a 301a package so it weighed 3660 stock with half tank of gas. Im skinny. Lol. Drag set up with rear seat delete and passanger seat out. Dumped the exhaust which saved over 50lbs. Baer drag brakes helps a lot with weight.

I'd have to look over the car and watch this run in person to believe it. Sorry but pics of a slip and front end doesn't prove this car is n/a running these times. I'm guessing a sneaky pete is being used... show me a video of the trunk area, and interior, then hop in the car and send it for a run all in one unedited video for us to see, and if its true then, I'll eat my hat for ya. It takes 600 whp with a 3700 lb car with all other variables being perfect to see a time like this, so you are claiming you make 600 wheel hp n/a? And you are telling us that you've somehow managed to take nearly 400 lbs out of the car by just removing seats and swapping brakes? LOL. I was born at night...but it wasn't last night. Edit, I'd also like to see that video show you sitting in that car and it weighing 3500 lbs. My base GT weighs nearly 4k lbs with me in it (an extra 220 lbs) and 1/2 a tank of fuel, and I have lighter brakes, no cats, no mufflers and skinnies, with full interior.

Its already been proven Gen 3 with weight reduction will go tens . The impressive thing is OP did this with a 1.58 sixty @ 132 with a stock converter!
Congrats OP ! No hate here ..

LOL quit it.

Pretty crazy that a N/A car is picking up over 30 mph in the back half. Usually that's what FI cars do.
