Me neither, but I just took a guess, since everything is more expensive up here.

i would make sure it would stay straight and i could handle it before i tried that, my cuz had a supercharged roush mustang and he never ran it at the drag strip for that reason, he had enough brains not to
He shouldn't have had any troubles, those Roush stangs are slow as hell (for what they are) unless you get into the computer. They are quite sad really.

That sucks for the Vette guy. You never know, the guy could have ran 600+hp cars before with no troubles, this one just bite him in the *** or hit oil. I pray it will never happen, but know everytime I hit the juice there is a chance I will break lose. Right now I worry more about the weak *** 10 bolt then losing it halfway down the track.
dont know what all he had done to his roush but it wasnt slow at all,it was a 1998 model and every time you get on it from a dead stop it would broad side almost instantly and again when you hit 2nd so he would have definately been in the wall too

Sounds like your friend needed some better tires. just giving ya crap dude. I think Mustangs are worthless unless its a 03 or 04 Cobra. All others are slow in stock form.

I once saw a Supra literlly spin the tires down the whole 1320 and nearly put it in the wall at the finish line. Came back next time with some drag radials and did a little better, ran a 14 at like 100 something mph. Pretty patheatic for a 1200whp car.

The first past he like a 17-18 seconds. The 14 second pass he didnt get on it until probably half track. I hold by my statement that Supras are Dyno Queens, but they are one of my favorite Jap Imports.

I've wanted a supra for a long time now. I know their stock hp isn't the best; but they definitely turn heads. I still hate myself for not getting my hands on a black twin-turbo for $10,800; but I was almost positive it had been used for transporting dope so I didn't think it was worth the risk at the time. Now its hard to find one for less than 30k that I don't have. Oh well.
