I'm thinking a 14 or 15 tbh. Blue mustang no idea I'm all over the
Place with my times on that car. If I had the time and money I'd get myself some better tyres and fix my rear springs and steering to help my cause a bit the other well the driver could always improve lol.

I don't know it feels like it had simular power to a 6l Ve Como. Guess we will find out Sunday. I've never seen what they run.

Only slight chance of showers later on in the day at Willowbank, should be a good day and not as hot as last year which is always a bonus :thumb:

It was a good day today at willowbank but was bloody hot .  Plenty of nice cars and quite a few mustangs . I think I saw 4 mustangs on the track racings  :burnout: .  And 3 were from here .  Also nice to catch up with some mustang owners from here  :thumb: . And gazzab 055  it was nice to meet you also .

Was a good day out Glenn! Pretty happy about my eb 4cyl mustang it running a 14 flat and beating a fellow v8 driver 👍  Few more mods I may even get into the mid 13s!

Ryan 14.0 @ 100 mph isn't too bad . Stimo in his coupe ran 14.5 I think and around 95 mph . . Ryan for you to get down to mid 13 will need another 50 HP .

Ryan your car should run into the 13s at a night meet when its cooler . Just ask Rodney how heat plays with his car .

Great day, I really enjoyed walking around with Rod checking out all the beautiful cars.. The drags I ended up doing 7 runs which is good value :thumb: I was hoping for a 13.9 and my last few runs were close with a best of 14.085 @ 97.62 :toetapping: I'm close

Hey Glenn, your 70 is a stunning car..Yours and Rodney's 69 are real standouts... How did you go Rod with the 17" stickies?

Wow nothing wrong with 14 .0 @ 97 . I thought I saw you do a 14.5 @ 95 mph ,but I only watched you run once or twice , early runs . You and Ryan would have been so close .

Thanks and did you have a look under the back of the car ? .Rodneys new sticky 17s weren't much chop compared to the 15 inch ET streets .

No mate I didn't have a look under the back, but you can instantly tell your 70 is a high quality car, it's just a stunning Mustang and a real credit to you..For the drags my first few runs I just let the auto shift itself and my times were much better once I started shifting :thumb:

That was a good day, seen plenty of cars I recognised but no faces, although I did see Rodney as he drove out to the drags :thumb:

yeah Glen I saw all of your cars there, Got a video of Ryan at the start line, also took one of Rodney's run but it didn't come out unfortunately, must have pressed the wrong button, you know..."old farts and technology"
must try and get mine finished for next year
