Bill has his car, very nice it is indeed, look forward to his modding videos though in short the car takes the same mods as previous gen typically.

Yes, Ford already have kits available for mag ride. MY18 mag cars sit lower than MY15 PP cars did by around 15mm or so, but they still need lowering by a further 20mm or so. Springs from Ford are around £300, you can also fit the GT 350 or 350R springs or the 350 lowering springs as well.

Well I don't know if the guy was messing it up or what but it seemed to sit at 1-2mph for a whole second and then seemed to be hovering around limiter in 1st. Was either spinning like crazy or the guy was not keeping his foot flat and confusing gear box, but either way very poor launch, slow time. Or just an extremely slippy surface, I catched in the video he is drag racing tomorrow, so see how he compares to the 12's others have being running. :)

Yeah did seem strange that it was spinning so much! Didn't look wet but possibly it was cold? Or a bad surface?

How could I know? Can't really tell from video, only clues are cold/wet morning and what looked like a shiny smooth surface, so can only assume grip levels were very low.

Secondly how many miles on the car, tyres could still be releasing release agent and maybe it just needs a DRIVER MOD.

Looked like around 260 miles on the clock in the video, so definitely not a fully bedded in engine or tyres.

Wow. So much slower than the 15-17. Perhaps Ford are telling porkies?

I am saying driver or surface.

Three have now run quarter mile stock, the two with 3.55 A10 ran 12@118 and the one with 3.15 A10 ran 12.33@120

120mph terminal and the ET says its a much quicker car than 15-17, especially once its rolling.

Also Beefcake just done the ultimate, 10.8s@130mph on a stock car, just Lund tuned with 150 shot, but no spray out the hole and no spray on gear changes. Seriously moving for not a lot of money!

Might be time to buy some laughing gas. :D
