well when ur only running 14's on spray and only 1mph more on spray, and then say u were off the bottle running pretty much 105mph and a 13 second pass thats all just crazy...anyone with a mind can put it together...and now u just dont wanna look like a fool running a high 13 second pass on spray and running a time that n/a guys are running at 3-4 mph less. its just crazy to even think about

I don't know why you're so adamant guy, it really must burn you up your car couldn't trap 104-105 na... I said maybe the radar for the speed at the track was wrong or something. Again I will find out this weekend. With video evidence since you guys are that stupid.

well... no video but I did run... 13.7 @ 102.. again I have nothing to hide my only guess is the other track I went to was off because nothing changed at all... I ran three 13.7's @102 and one 14.0@100 missing the **** out of second gear... So I'll open my mouth and insert my foot..
Did an oil change and plugs after... I had a broken off tip on my spark plug in #3 and my oil was about 3 quarts low after 3500 miles... good ole rev up consuming oil for ya...
and just to edit I don't think the messed up spark plug really affected my runs at all, I've had a little miss at idle for a long time.. so I guess I'll suck it up and say the other track was off and my car runs 13.7@102.. not too bad I guess, wish it had more in it. it's hard to cheaply and safely unlock power in these damn cars

You sure built up a lot of hype and talked a lot of sh*t to some very reputable members to step on your d*ck and not provide video proof of anything. Granted your numbers aren't the same...but I've learned in the drag racing world....if you're gonna talk sh*t...you better have a slip. And no I don't race my Z at the track but coming from a turbo cobra, a '69 Mustang, and a 572 BB rail car w/ a two stage n20 setup...I've seen a few things on the ol 1/8th and 1/4....

You....up to this point have been talking out your ***. You're the type of Z owner the Mustang guys love to brag about smoking at the track or on the street. You know..the type that think they know how to drive and their **** don't stink...go get a neon and f*ck urself silly with it...but stop ruining the image of the Z for those of us that appreciate this car.


ETA:...you need more cars for my credibility? 71 glass bodied challenger, '05...actually the first glass body Mustang in existence and used on the NMRA rule book......oh it's running twins now and on overkill she can hold 2700hp and around 2800lb/ft tq off the line.....hmmm...what else...a stretched and lowered HD sportser w/ an n20 setup.....oh yes how can I forget...my best friends 93 GT Vortech'd and sprayed .....w/ a 347 running high 5's low 6's and his daily driver...damn the list goes on...once again I say you're full of ****.

my buddy has a 94 GT with a 347 stroker, vortech charged...no spray on it..but he made 435whp and like 500ft. lbs. or somethin...he cant drive so i smoke him in my z, but its a nasty car if it had a driver...he basically ran out of blower though with that motor and needs to get a bigger blower.

haha I hear ya. Vortech makes some nice *** sizes for the pony guys. I'm a former and still trying to sell my pony (69 coupe) so I mainly grew up in a Ford history.

My buddy's GT kept bending the blower bracket and throwing belts through the hood so he had to get a custom bracket made up which thus resulted in customizing the whole damn thing to get it all to line back up. Back in 2002 a good friend of ours has a wicked cammed and sprayed '02 SS 'maro...we were having some stop light fun...my buddy still had his slicks on from coming home from the track (we were a bunch of country bumpkins so that **** flies around our neck of the woods). We were at a stop light and I was in my buddy's GT....he had about a 1/4 bottle left and figured what the hell. Light goes green...'maro flies out like a bat outta hell. We make it about 5 feet and start going right real quick b/c I'll be damn if we didn't sheer the lugs off the right rear. Scariest ****in moment of my life.

yeah im a former stang owner, the mustang i was talking about used to be mine back few years ago...i didn't have the blower on it though, ,just the 347 stroker...he is still workin on it, and wants to upgrade the blower now like i said and he has to get some tires thats for sure. .the main thing he needs to buy is a driver mod though...let me tell u he sucks at driving, with that car he should beat me from a dig or roll and he just can't and i know for a fact that he should.. im only at 400whp and 320ft. lbs. to the wheels at the moment till i get my bigger injectors in and retuned with smaller pulley.

lol driver mod can make or break a car. But really the only thing you need to do to gain driver mod is to bang through those gears night after night...eventually you'll figure it out or something will break lol.

Well speaking of your 400whp and 320lbs/ft tq....check out my thread in this section (drag section) and lemme here your thoughts. I'm thinking we could do this around the same time and learn some things from each other.

ill check ur thread out...ive actually been thinking about throwing a small shot on for when i take it to the track, i just picked up some et streets not too long ago, so i think just a 35-50 shot or something would give me good torque numbers and might still be ok for stock block with some tuning...still pondering the idea..lol..i guess well see what i actually make when i get the injectors in and smaller pulley and retune...id say ill be at 430whp so in that case some spray would be too much for the stock block no matter how sparingly i used it i beleive.. im gonna check ur thread now

I use to beat the **** out of my car back when I went to the drag strip, always made sure to get no worse than a 1.9-2.2 60ft and shift well.
Agreed, but the OP is running 14's on nitrous.

LOl I put that comment before I saw what went down didn't read the entire thread.

However excluding all the B.S. arguments, 13.7 @102 is definitely respectable in my book.

I agree again, but the bulk of the arguement was about his claim to run 105mph traps with i/tp's. While posting results of nearly the same speed while using nitrous, and claiming to be off the juice. 13.7 at 102 is perfectly reasonable for those mods.

oh yeah 13.7 at 102 is not bad at all for little mods...that is not what was discussed...op is going 14's on spray and then claimed to run that off the spray and pull basically 105 off spray..lol
