We're not quick to believe anything. Nobody who knows this board well would even try to pass that off here.

If you are eternally skeptical, and you feel the necessity of proving everybody's times wrong you can punch numbers into calculators all day long.

That being said, as was addressed above, the calculators aren't perfect and do not take a 1.5 holeshot into account. That 1/8 mile time is damn fast, and would normally equate to a mid 11, which I would definately say is bullshit if his 1/4 time was a mid 11. I've seen some funky *** time slips from time to time.

I see your point but like someone said before I think he forgot to mention his blower, or maybe he stripped his car down to the bare frame to run that time.

Either way if it is true it is damn impressive. I spend an excessive amount of time at the track and the only 4.6L I have seen run those kind of numbers make a funny whistling noise.:D

just get 'em to scan a couple time slips... the gears are really what helps the 4.6... if he can hook it, yeah it's possible.. good air at sea level, obviously a great launch...and the right gears to put the engine in it's power band,,,

Remember with 4.56 gears, he probably got into 5th gear. that could explain the 109 Traps

He claimes that he goes through the traps in 4th gear at around 6,500 RPM's on a stock motor he also says that he has the fastest N/A Bolt-On 4.6 in the country! he says he will be the first to run 11's when it cools off as well, he says that the reason that other 4.6 GT's are so slow is because they don't know what it takes to go fast! :rolleyes: has anyone here ever heard of KJ ? he says that he will be in a upcoming Mustang magazine soon as the fastest GT ????? hmmmmmmm!
