i've seen some with tons of mods barely hit mid 14's. (okay so our local track sucks but still!)

demon i usually agree with you most of the time...but as far as stock fox body mustangs running 15's not hardly...i used to be very much into the stang scene,and can tell you from experience that this is NOT true....my first fox stang was a '84 mercury capri(same just diff grill and taillights)...automatic carburated and it ran 15.2...yeah it was a 15 but it was also 3 years behind the real 87-93 fox stangs...my second was an '88 gt also an auto i didn't run it at the track before i added a set of flowmasters(w/ off road h pipe)and it ran 14.8(although it did have optional,but still factory installed 3.55 gears)...


my ex wife purchased our next fox body(she loved mine so much)a '93 gt 5 speed...it was stock except for(flowmasters,and h pipe,drop in k+n w/removed silencer,and 3.73 gears)with HER driving(damn that woman could drive a stick)it ran a traction limited(spinning the street tires through 2nd) 14.0 and a 13.99(and also numerous other 14 second times(mostly low 14's)....



i also purchased a '93 lx 5 speed...it ran 14.7 totally bone stock(2.73 gears)after the addition of the same mods as the ex wife's gt also ran low 14's and high 13's...it now runs 12's without a blower or nitrous...



and when i was heavy into the stang scene most stock and lightly modded stangs ran 14's and 13's all day long...and in road and track(which doesn't exactly always get the best #'s out of cars)a 1990 lx 5.0 ran 0-60 in 6 seconds flat and a 14.6@97 mph in the 1/4....hardly a 15 csecond car...

new,new ride! '99 svt black/mnb '95 mustang gt sold! '98 svt #800 sold!
