I have never met the OP or the guy that owns the car that ran a 9. Maybe this post will give me a chance too. I thought it would be better to say good job then cut him down seeing that he seems like a knowlageable car guy and could give me some tips at the track.
Tips are, sell your turbo cobra and get a bolt-on Z06. ;-)

No one is hating, this is just what happens when you come on a different platform specific forum and post unheard of freak numbers.
Next thing ya know we got Corvette owners calling every race on here bullshit because now all bolt-on Z06s are 9 second cars.
If I go on the Corvette forum and post members running 10.30s in a full weight / bolt-on GT500 we would have just as many haters / doubters or more. It's just how it goes, this is a timeslip section on a FORD forum, not everyone is gonna drink the kool aid.
Sounds good. I talk to Dave D-Rod on unitedgearheads. He owns the blacked out c6 with head, cam and some other things. He was a little hurt that I got him at the FLDs but seemed better after getting a 10.1 at the track rental you guys had. We bust eachother up but its all in fun. :beer: Its fun because we both think we still have street cars.
I would love to join you guys if you have a rental again. I need time to get my car dialed in to see what it can do but the two times the local guys had a rental we were rained out.
I like any car thats fast unlike some of the guys that have posted. :shrug:
We put on a rental at MIR this past Friday. Had more than two dozen guys attend. One came as far as Denver while others came from Florida, Kentucky, Indiana, Illinois, Pennsylvania, Maryland, and New Jersey. (I may have missed a state or two.) It was a great time. Lots of guys set PBs. My buddy Eric in his ZR1 rowed the gears to an 8.92 pass. There was a beautiful yellow Stang that went very low 10s that highly exceeded his expectations. Steven Auglis did a great job video taping the event. You can check the Stang out in his full video on YouTube.
Here is a vid containing a 9.971 pass besting the 9.973 of 2011. (3rd pass of the day) We ran DOT tires this time since the track was hooking so well. Still no dumping of the clutch or power shifting. Car has 27,000 plus miles on it.

those are amazing times! Running at atco this time of year definitely helps! What was the da?
Nice. So a 1.40 60' on that pass? Not bad at all :rockon:
1.4 60ft, nice
Wow, that's incredible! Great job!
Impressive
Thanks guys. I was happy with the 60' on those tires. There may be a 1.37 in them. The M&H slicks that I usually run go mid 1.3s to low 1.4s most of the time. DA was good but it was much warmer than what you see online.Those are amazing times! Running at Atco this time of year definitely helps! What was the DA?
LOL I wish that were true. That would put me in the 9.1x range. :-DMaybe the 4.10s take off a full second.
