i got 2.0s on stock tires as well. its no biggie man. thats all i am saying. Awesome driving would be a 1.90 or lower. Actually now thaty i think abotu it. i bet my tires were in very similar shape to yours. my car saw alot of storage as well. only had 18k on it when i took it to the drag strip.

Also u should know that spinning the tires can and does increase your trap speed. if u get a clean launch/run your trap speed will be lower. I make this comment in regards to your run in the 350z.

good vid action. Thanks.

I'm not quite sure why there are so many doubters on this forum. Geeze!

What elevation and weather conditions are you running at the strip for the low 13s in the FD?

Elevation was around 600 feet above sea level. I'm not sure on the weather conditions. It was obviously nice weather but I don't know about the barometric pressure or precipitation in the air. It wasn't too muggy, but it was hot.

I respect the '03-'04 Cobra, but that's about it as far as Mustangs go. Also, respect is different from like.

great car and nice runs, and mustangs are pretty respectable esspecially SVO's. If anyone says their not, they are just a rotary ****!!!!!! But seriously, people can't say they suck just because they don't like them or their a Ford, performance numbers tell ALL!!! Just the other day we (me+my friend) took an s2000 from a 30mph roll to 110mph in his auto 5.0 stang (stock besides H-pipe, no cats, and 295's) ofcourse it was breathing down our necks but it never got the one length back.

I'm actually trying to get my friends to run both their S2000s against my 540I. So far, they aren't buying the idea...
