8 second race car built on the regular assm. line
Ford is an amazing company... Where else can you buy a 100% race ready car right down to the slicks from a regular car dealer?

Re: 8 second race car built on the regular assm. line
Kind of surprised they didn't use a 5.0, it being the new engine and all.

Re: 8 second race car built on the regular assm. line
yea I figured they would be using a bored/stroked 5.0 too. But the 5.4 is a proven motor for your I guess. Both motors are winners..

Re: 8 second race car built on the regular assm. line
Ford clearly has their stuff together. They are also auctioning off a 1of 1 Boos 2012 Mustang for Charity @ barrett Jackson. They are also winning over quite a few import buyers with their product line

Re: 8 second race car built on the regular assm. line
Very cool, I love these Mustangs! [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/smile.gif[/img]
Did I miss something in the link, where does it state '8-second' race car? Perhaps the link changed stories, I'm not sure....

Re: 8 second race car built on the regular assm. line
Believe it.....they are 8-second cars. They're capable creating their own atmosphere with the supercharger and the 2008 and 2010 are absolutely flying.

Re: 8 second race car built on the regular assm. line
[img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/dunno.gif[/img]
The ZR-1 Corvette, and a multitude of tuner cars with 700+ horsepower, barely hit 11's (or perhaps a 10 second pass with perfect conditions, traction, and a pro driver), and the 1000 hp Bugatti Veyron can crack a low 10-second et....but 8's? The Mustang would need 1000+ horsepower (probably a turbo, or a supercharger and a heck of a lot of nitrous), and a chassis setup for drag racing. Don't get me wrong, I would LOVE to see evidence of an 8-second Mustang straight from-the-factory, I'm just looking for a link to read about them... [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/smile.gif[/img]
