Who has the fastest DD Mustang??????

[Indy]

I know that we have a list that shows 1/4 mile times, but I would like to know who's the fastest DD Mustang?
By that I mean those of us that drive our Mustangs everyday regardless of rain, heat, or anything else. Its what we drive to work, on vacation, or any where else we go. Not the nice weather, weekend warriors, or track only Mustangs, but the ones that see around 1000 miles or more a month.

Don't get me wrong I love weekend warriors and track only Mustangs too. But they are purpose built for one thing, to haul @&&! http://www.mach1registry.org/forums/images/smilies/3gears.gif http://www.mach1registry.org/forums/images/smilies/worshippy.gif
But not to comfortable and reliable for DD or long trips, IMHO.


My Mach gets driven around 14,000 miles a year, its not real fast or above average by any means. When I bought it I decided that I wanted to be able to 12's N/A and 11's on the bottle. And I'm almost there, with alittle more tractions I hope to meet my goals. The catch is that I also so planned to drive it everyday, and everywhere I go. If my wife and I decided that we wanted to drive over 4000 mile round trip to go see our families with our son, we will take the Mach. That way I can hit some tracks back east for some better times then I'll get out here in the desert.http://www.mach1registry.org/forums/images/smilies/3amin.gif http://www.mach1registry.org/forums/images/smilies/31.gif

So my question is what kind of times are the rest of the DD Mustangs running????????

[silver03cobra]

12.8 @119mph (on stock box tune)drive it everyday 60" 2.5 so i got alot to go! (street tires and hot lap) drove it 1,000+ miles to cali and back

[Indy]

Make it hook and you'll be in the 11's easy.

My best so far was the 12.6 pass with a bad trans and converter on the bottle. Hope for some better numbers real soon!

[AZSonicSnake]

DD that eliminates me. but after looking at fazm's setup, i think he has one mean ass DD....

[TRUUBLE]

Mine ran 11.20s when it was a DD.

[Indy]

It seems to me that an 11sec DD is very respectable, but a low 11sec is bad @$$:yes:! There aren't to many cars that can run that number and still be reliable enough to take across country for a vacation an not be worried about breaking down along the way. To those that can you have my respect.:highfive:

[50 BMG]

You talking about on the board or anywhere?

If your talking about folks on the board...off the top of my head I'd say devin.

There are more than a few 1000+rwhp DD fox cars around, but you already know that.

[fazm]

i know i dont have the fastest DD on here, but i can gaurantee the fastest v6 DD lol.

12.03 @ 118.5mph driven about 20k miles a year.

Yes I was referring to people on this board and use the car as a DD currently

What's he packin' now a days?

[Indy]

What's he packin' now a days?

"I'll never tell":biglaugh:

[mitch22]

Well if mine actually could make it out of the shop, it might make the "Occasionally Driven" catagory.........
LOL

[BurnTire]

I look at my car daily. Does that count?

[ASUSMC]

I drive mine daily and you know exactly what is done to it considering you did the work. Its not really that fast but it gets the job done.

fastest V6 = fazm
fastest 2V = Rambo
fastest 4V = Devin (even though I think the bike is ridden a bit more)

[BurnTire]

Mine is dusted daily with a car duster. LOL

[RockysMom]

Mine gets almost 370 MPG and I drive it almost daily rofl, I am the Queen Drag Chicken rofl rofl. So I dont know, 0 to 60 in like 6 seconds I think (maybe less). (getting on the freeway). I look at it every day too and dust it everyday. I classify my baby as a once in a while driver (OWD) seeing that I live at my work rofl rofl. He pretty much stays in the garage.:biglaugh::biglaugh::biglaugh:

[Indy]

Well then stop adding more parts to the build and it will be done.:biglaugh::hi:

By the way finished the cage, made the new radiator fit, and installed the steel braided brake lines today, so we are getting closer to a finishing the build. I can only build so many cars at one time, ya know what I mean.:icon_cool: LOL

DD would mean its driven everyday (unless its broken), or its your only mod of transportation.


It looks like you might be right with this list (atleast for now)

fastest V6 = fazm
fastest 2V = Rambo
fastest 4V = Devin (even though I think the bike is ridden a bit more)

[AZSonicSnake]

Mine gets almost 370 MPG

whoa!!! i want that kinda gas milage!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[RockysMom]

[BurnTire]

Sounds like a call out.

Calling Cap n Crunch.

[mitch22]

I'll take that challenge. Just give me a little time to learn how to drive.

[Indy]

Captain Crunch is off active duty list for awhile, due to an injury and needing to change a few things on his car. But I know for a fact that he hasn't hit a 11.1 yet, we are still working a few bugs out of his car then he should be up for the challenge. Provided he's all healed up by then.

[BurnTire]

I sent the Cap a PM alerting him of the call out.

[mitch22]

t am 'I chicken liver'??:biglaugh:

[silver03cobra]

Hahah! I got a quicker timeslip than you! Haha! :laughing:

yes you do..... caues best my 60" is a 2.6...... and i dont want to break a haftshaft.... and remember.... the 118 mph was on my econo tune... not the race tune.:biglaugh: and yes i know your stock....

Break a half shaft. I don't know how to do that.

[99_venom]

Well my DD gets 13 mpg runs 11.42 at 120.8 weighs 4835 in race trim, has 71,000 miles on it and pulls stumps on the weekends around the property.

Ok it's my Lightning that's my DD, the Cobra sits in the garage most of the time.

Seriously, I went to FFW last fall on Saturday and ran an 11.6. Sunday I had it in the ditch in front of the house pulling a new culvert into place for the driveway. Missed Truckin Nats but I did pull two stumps out of the back yard with it that day...

I love my farm truck

[RockysMom]

t am 'I chicken liver'??:biglaugh:
U b talkin to me????? lol lol:laughing1::laughing1::laughing1:

[Indy]

Thats a nice farm truck you got there, 99_venom.:pinkthumb:

[Jacostang]

U b talkin to me????? lol lol:laughing1::laughing1::laughing1:
I think so!!!!:yes:

[BurnTire]

I think so!!!!:yes:

Calling Fart Can Muffler.

[RockysMom]

Calling Fart Can Muffler.
Your rude!!!!

[03cobrazzz]

ill assume she meant 370 miles to the tank lol


my best mpg was 31.8 so far.how did you do that ???? tickle the pedal with a feather?was that freeway or city?

[Indy]

He's got a V-6 that he put a turbo on if remeber right. That would get killer gas mileage if you can control your right foot.

[fazm]

how did you do that ???? tickle the pedal with a feather?was that freeway or city?


that was freeway

my avg pre gears n/a was 27
my avg after 3.73 gears n/a was 25
my avg with turbo is about 22-23

oh and no i cant control my right foot. :) freeway mileage with the turbo is probably 35+ now

[Dan]

I look at my car daily. Does that count?


mine is drivable

But not a Daily Driver, sorry Boss.
