Funny you mention this 121-mph pass, given the Camaro average is roughly 115-mph there is no reason to doubt the results right? According to others in the forum poor traction results in high mph, how did this SS run that mph, it obviously hooked?

If the GT cranks out a 121-mph pass claiming to be stock what will this forum's reaction then be?

This is the way I see it now, this Mustang is faster than anyone in this forum ever expected it to be, including myself. The excuses are starting. We have only 2-weeks of testing, including dyno runs up to 430-rwhp, and 1/4 mph to 119. Nobody expected that, not even the Mustang crowd.
If you can’t understand that atco in -1600 DA will produce high trap speeds and every other stock car was 116 don’t know what to tell you. 2 years trial and error ? The 119 trap pass was in April of 2016 when he just got the car and was a poor 60 ft. We had guys in the 11s by December of 15 and 12.0 first time out on street tires.
Did you know team beefcakes gt never hit 11s or that 119 even with tuning, dragpack and CAI?

It’s not faster than I expected. I been saying all along it would be at least as fast as an SS.

The SS ran that mph because it was at a fast track in Extreme negative DA. What’s so hard to understand? And even accounting for DA some tracks mph higher. I mph 2 mph more in higher DA at US 131 than I do at Milan

And still ignoring the poor low end push off the line? Not important in a drag race? Lol

And yep we had 430 rwhp SS right after launch too. It’s more of the same we’ve seen for two years but you think we should be all stunned or impressed or what ? I don’t get it
