Well looks like the hot lunch is off , and a plain old sandwich is on instead .

the bullshit stops when the flag drops .

Might just go for a cruise down the track now .

Forecast is fine for tomorrow for all Ford day BUT 2 deg in the morning

I remember a few years ago going and driving straight pass the track because of the heavy fog ,worked it out after another 20 min of driving

.

69ish with the purple 69 fastback should be parked next to my red 66 coupe . God only knows where we will be parked as we are going a little later but should roll up around 8.10

Ok I'll keep an eye out for you, I got a mate bringing up a very tough XW for its first run, we should get there just before 8 along with a few other Stangs... Looking FORD to it

Good day guys ,a little cold early but got quite warm . Plenty of FORDS on show and too many racing ,the line up went for miles . I went ok ,69 ish went very well ,and shelby mustro gave his a go but needs a little sorting out yet with the new gear box ,but good on you Ryan for giving it a run

. Someone might have some pics .

We had a great day Glenn, was good to meet you all and have a bit of fun on the strip

Here's a couple of pics taken by my lovely wife of a 2015 LHD Mustang making use of the new line lock feature

...Which unfortunately I don't think we're going to get on the Aus versions

Stimo · « **Reply #36 on:** July 19, 2015, 08:20:41 pm »

The brand new 2015 GT LHD Mustang ran a best of 12.75

GLENN 70 · « **Reply #37 on:** July 19, 2015, 08:26:48 pm »

I was told it had been played with

Stimo · « **Reply #38 on:** July 19, 2015, 08:32:10 pm »

Just tickled maybe ??

GLENN 70 · « **Reply #39 on:** July 20, 2015, 07:56:12 am »

Mine went quite well 2nd and 3rd run but not the 1 st run ,just wheel spun . I have lost some top end , about 3 mph by taking the spacer plate off the dual plain intake manifold so I can fit the std original air cleaner . I go the total sleeper look inc the std 14 inch rims and hub caps and bowlers hat on the back shelf .

it still goes ok but just out side the 11s .

Looks like it was a good day - Thanks for the pics, hopefully there will be a few more put up for those who didn't/couldn't make it.

Gee Glen only just out of the 11's

Most people would kill to have a car stuggle as much as your's does on the strip

Xrayman · « **Reply #41 on:** July 20, 2015, 08:19:45 pm »

I made it - but did'nt talk to anyone

must get the pictures downloaded.

Anyone know who owns the blue 66(?) coupe [I think it was - I did'nt have the best view from the stands, and did'nt tape/photo it cause it looked stock-as-a-rock!] that ran under 10 seconds ?

I ran a PB of 12.45 @ 111.97 Mph then a 12.48 @ 110.19 Mph on my street tyres (No Sticky tyres like other were running) Then when I came around to staging for a 3rd run they waved me and the car in front of me off back onto the display field and I don't know why (At the time I thought they only had enough time for us to do 2 runs)
I think I can go quicker especially if I can stop the car from missing over 4500 rpm
Definitely will go quicker with sticky tyres.

Can you post the photos? It wasn't the start point I was having issues.

Here's a vid of me racing that gt500 car. ha I couldn't get 3rd gear ended up poping it in 5th mid point down the track.
