Howdy folks. I'm an old fan of mustangs, going back to the late 60s and 70ss. I've owned a bunch, and sold a bunch and haven't had one since maybe 1982, but the new ones have once again caught my attention.

I'm going to look at 2012 GT, and I have been impressed with the HP numbers.

I'm hoping maybe some of the veterans on this forum can fill me in on what to expect, performance wise at the drags. Can you get one of these down into the 12s without giving up a stock classification? I would like to be competitive in its stock class.

I bracket raced my last car, a 65 289 4sp. It ran 11:80s, but this time around I'd prefer to run in a stock class, and just dominate the heck out of it. :)

So anyway, if I buy this car today, I look forward to hanging around this forum a lot. And even if I don't buy it, eventually I will buy one, and still be around here a lot.

Have a great day and thanks for being here.

Jim
