Went from a 30mph roll in 2nd gear...ran twice.
First run, I was a good 2-car lengths ahead half way into 4th gear.
Second run a bit closer...probably 1 or 1.5 car lengths.

He kept up by the end of the second, but shift into third gear and I just pulled away.
HIghway run from around a 55mph would likely yield even better results.

The new 18T is starting to feel nice.

Yeah LOL, it's a friend of mine's. :D LOOL

Looks exactly like this one:

If we went from a dig, he'd def. have me off the line...They're supposed to run 5.2 secs to 60mph and 13.7 @ 103 in the 1/4 mile.

Yeah, but the SHO also weighs almost 1000 lbs more!

280-300 whp at most . . .

103 trap on them + AWD + weight = not a real great roll racing car . . . but from a dig, pretty good

and if he gets just a tune, then its all over . .

Nice one Kemal! We gotta get some meets going sometime once work starts to slow back down.

Those new taurus are going to be a monster tuner car once some used ones start hitting the market. I wish they would mate that engine/driveline to a smaller platform soon. I'm sure the ecoboost V6 will be in plenty of cars.

While I enjoyed it, I know that if he were to just get a tune, I'd be toast.

Maybe next time I'll try to get a vid.

Just wait till they put that engine in a lighter 2 doorPosted Image Like an AWD Focus RS that would be nice to see happen that Volvo and Ford are no longer!

Well believe it Debbie....... it happened, what reason would he have to lie? :lol:

They post nice 1/4 times stock, but thats mostly due to the AWD off the line. From a roll its a different ball game, my car runs door to door with my buddys 12.2 second T-bird if we start from a 30-40mph roll, and my car will probably never post a 12.4 standing start 1/4 mile.

LOL, I'm telling you I raced a friend's brand new SHO...I didn't race someone I didn't know and wasn't quite sure whether it was a SHO or not. :arob:

And Faulty, nice job on keeping up with that 12-sec T-Bird from a roll. :tup:

He was shocked...so was I :lol:

His times are mainly due to the fact that he can run 12" slicks in the back and cut a 1.2 60ft time on spray. Bastard :( :lol:

We never did a pull with him spraying but I'm sure he'd run away then. It runs 12.2 on motor and low 11's-high 10's on spray (150 shot)
