It was back to the track for Team Lethal as we headed to Palm Beach International Raceway for a few more passes. The only changes made this time were a set of QA1 single adjustable shocks. Otherwise the car has the stock springs, upper and lower control arms and panhard rod. We're running a 2.9L Whipple with a 3.50" pulley, American Racing 1-7/8" longtube headers, Offroad X-Pipe and the Magnaflow 3" competition catback. We're also using a Fore Precision Works dual pump return style fuel hat along with their filter, y-block and regulator.
With the UPR's Jeremy Martorella behind the wheel we were able to crack off a 10.36@134mph. We were hoping for better but as you know it always doesn't work out as we'd like it to. Not only was the track not hooking well we believe we've simply reached the limit of the stock suspension setup. Although the power the car is making won't be mentioned as it's part of an up coming article to be featured in 5.0 Mustang Magazine I can tell you that we've over powered the stock suspension. Before we were able to make it work cutting low 1.40 60fts. Now we're unable to do so and ended up with the best of a 1.50 that evening. Obviously track prep may play a role in that as well but from our video before this when we ran our best of [email protected] you can see how bad the car bounces in between shifts.
So next week we'll be headed over to UPR Products in Lake Worth, FL to set the suspension up right. Our driver and good friend Jeremy Martorella will be performing the installation of UPR's race suspension products identical to the ones we run on our 9 second 2010 GT500.
Then it's back to the track to make another attempt at a 9 second pass with the stock motor and stock 6 speed manual transmission.
