You will never see a stock S2000 trap at 103mph...it's more common for them to trap in 98-99mph range than 100-101 range.

 

Running a 103 in a Mach 1 is like running a 97 in an S2k, decent but certainly not indicative of the cars full potential... I'd say the bell curve on each car is 96-101 for the S2k, and 100-106 for the Mach.. For anything outside that range, something other than the car is causing it...

 

LOL, man just had to reply to this. cause i think its funny. maybe i can provide some kindling. well, last nite, i was asked if id Gtec my car, to prove its giftedness. so i said OK, sheesh. well, we go out on this road, along side the airport. i have 3/4 tank, my clutch is wasted, (my stage 2 is here on the counter), and i sat too long F'n with the Gtec, heat soaked.
LOL, i get it set, it says go, i take it to 7500, and let her fly, in hopes it bites, it does, and i spin hard all of first, yank 2nd, it slips a bit, pull 3rd, slips again, and soft foot 4th. it clicks up, 13.95 @ 104.4 mph. i have a stock 04, with an AEM v2. THATS IT. and im in vegas, everyone runs 7 tenths slower here than at sea level. now add that up. so is this to say that im good for 13.20's. or quicker with more parts, dont know. we shall see. trust me, im not afraid to post vids and such of all this. its comin. im gonna rip up LACR soon and see what this bad girl has in it. ill post the vids of that.
laters, dave

 

SOrry to pop the bubble, but the gtech is NOTORIOUS for giving you trap speeds a good 3-4mph higher than what they should be.

Youve got a 100-ish trapping car, right what I expected. And no ammount of convulted bullshit is going to explain away you pulling cars that trap 5-10mph higher from a roll. Anything can happen on the street, and you seem to have been lucky so far, but thats all there is to it.

Sorry pal, I call it like I see it.

 

ok uhh mach 1's run like a 13.7 or 8
muscle mustangs and fast forda got one to pull a 13.5 out of thier ass so 2's is way since a 03 cobra will barely dip into the 12's and has a lot more power than a mach 1

 

ur insane if u think a stock s2k is gonna run a 13.2 with just an AEM...

 

A local Mustang club had a track rental at Norwalk Raceway.

There were 7 Mach 1's there...one was running 11.8's@116 on BFG DR's with a 100 shot of n2o. The rest were na and they ran from 13.0's@107-108 - 13.4's@104-105...ALL OF THEM...GET IT.

Any one that ever..EVER...attempts to pass G-tech times off as legit times is delusional. I have had many G-techs over the years...some are as high as 8 MPH HIGH...seriously.

My Lightning runs 12.6's@108...and I would not ever be worried about racing a car that runs basically low 14's@98-100 with a good driver from a roll or a stop. Your friends car is in need of a tune or he bs'd you.

 

I raced a Mach 1 from behind (he was 2 other Mustangs) from a dig. I had 2 hit my brakes twice and eventually passed him, I had a passenger he had none. He challenged me before, now he was embarassed. I wasn't impressed with the Mach's, but then again I am far from stock.

 

*clapping* *grabs axe* hehe i love chopping kindling. as always, someone sips haterade on a regular basis. sorry bro, but i call it as i see it. ive been drivin REAL hard an awful long time, and have been drag racing 10 + years. i know what trap speeds are, and i know ETs, and have been launch tech for 3 pit crews. so the way many people drive their cars, is the reason S2000's are slow. you must have missed all the facts i provided there about what happened that nite. the car has an easy 4 mph more, and 4 tenths more in it now. and 4 other cars ran on the Gtec that nite, and were within 2mph of their track times. . so yeah, i guess aircraft accelerometers are always off. hehe, im workin on the vids now, just so your jaw can drop. i make no claims, for all of you who read into this wrong, im simply saying what i speculate. and ill post the vids, no matter how far off i am. laters dudes, drive em hard. dave

p.s. what i write, is not convoluted bullshit, just because im good with details in context, doesnt mean you need to run your mouth.

thank you drive through.

 

I still think your gonna be embarassing yourself though if u honestly think a stop s2k is gonna get a 13.2 stock with only a AEM at the drag strip...
