—Bauker™— Posted August 24, 2006 Report Share Posted August 24, 2006 My first loss on the juicy. Traveling up Cavecreek South bound I see a Roush Poopstang (black with gold stripes), working his way through traffic to pass me. When I switched lanes to follow him he punched it and got the jump. We raced from 55 to probably a good 130+, because my needle was buried past 120 for quiet some time. He only got me by about 1 car. I told myself I wouldn’t get emotional –gasp-... I guess it’s time for more mods. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would do the same with mine if I could afford it... <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I've had it about 7 months. I was thinking heads & cam + intake, or doing a big custom turbo setup and seeing how long the motor would last. Friend of mine said she would buy me a 408ci, but Ill believe that when I see it. My vote is for the turbo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tawss04 Posted August 25, 2006 Report Share Posted August 25, 2006 Well it was not that bad of a loss. I bet that Roush stang was freaking when he saw a big ass truck hanging with him I lost to an 05/06 Mustang GT the other night at the track, I know it had and exhuast and possibly a tune, she ran a 14.4 to my 14.8, you cant win them all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
—Bauker™— Posted August 25, 2006 Author Report Share Posted August 25, 2006 Pretty sure it was a Roush 380R or 440A. Here's an article about the 380R http://www.roadandtrack.com/article.asp?se...&article_id=638 Ran a best of 13.5. Doesn't take much for a pulley swap though.
