How much does a stock mustang weigh? I looked on ford's website and couldn't find that spec.

450r drag race the z400 hits like a mother at the start but the 450r has more hp obvious i'm sure but the z400 is great wheelie bike they sit higher than most and the swingarm is a pretty short one so it would def wheelie better hope that helps

Yeah, thats the only complain i would have about it. Especailly when hill climbing. But i have got the hole shot down.> Lean foward and Drop the clutch at about 9,000 rpm and let those tires rip.

Aren't you the same guy that had a 13.9 1/4 mile time for your STOCK mustang GT? Then changed it to 13.7 after pipes?

What year is your stang? 5-speed or auto? If its a 96-98 auto theres no way you turned those times. Those cars are slow.

If you had a 5.0 with a man. those times are very believable. The 96-98 stangs were the 4.6 and there cam/head package is TERRIBLE.

They corrected the problem on the 99 to presant and those cars fly. While the 5.0's are still the easiest motor to get extra HP out of.

If I went to a ford dealership right now, and picked up a mustang gt, took it to the track, I'd run a high 14

Anyone that thinks different either gets their information from the internet, or popular machanics...

People need to stop thinking that mustangs are super fast sports cars...they aren't. they were popular in the 70's and 80's, but then again, more of those were 5.0's

260hp from a v8 is extremely weak...Mustangs are dogs stock.

For around the same price of what you've paid in mods plus the price of the mustang, you could have bought a much better all around car...

^^ I agree. Something that can run low 12's or possibly better like a hemi cuda (426, of course) or a yenko L72 nova with around
450hp from the factory. Of course you'll pay a jillion dollars for one of those :-)

Lets see here were do i start, NO I HAVE NOT CHANGED MY TIMES, THERE IS A HONDA GUY WHO ALSO HAS A MUSTANG GT AND RUNS A 13.8. SECOND OF ALL, IF YOU GO TO A FORD DEALERSHIP AND PICK A BRAND NEW MUSTANG GT AND RUN IT ON A 60-70 DEGREE DAY YOU WILL BE IN THE VERY LOW 14. WELL I DONT KNOW ABOUT YOU BLU , BUT IF I DROVE IT I WOULD RUN VERY VERY LOW 14 ALL DAY LONG. MYBE IF YOU RUN THAT SAME MUSTANG ON A 95 DEGREE DAY WITH 100% HUMIDITY IT WILL RUN MID 14'S. LAST BUT NOT LEAST WHY THE HELL WOULD I WANT ONE OF THOSE OLD CARS FOR A DAILY DRIVER. SERIOUSLY......................................... ........ IF I WANTED TO RUN 12'S I WOULD JUST BACK TO THAT FORD DEALERSHIP AND PICK UP A COBRA. STOPPEN THOSE Z06'S ALL DAY LONG[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]
ALSO I HAVE A 2002 GT. IN 2001 THEY CHANGED THE 4.6 , I WOULD AGREE 96-00 MUSTANG ENGINES WERE DOGS

anyone know what a starion would run...QM??...im thinkin at least low 14s stock....maybe with a couple of tuner tricks it could break 13s.....and they have 4cyls. ive heard of guys gettin 300+hp out of those without nitrous...(which is cheating in my book). i was thinkin about gettin one to make a project out of---i like the way they drive/look.

Down my way we have alot of races, and I've seen the 450r dominate the z in any kind of drag race.
I think that on a wheelie it depends on the rider but would have to go with the z.
