At 180 MPH you're covering 264 feet per second. The average city block is only 320 ft. long

See this is what I'm talking about. Why would I get myself in a situation willingly, that I'm on public street going a city block per second?:-)

If I don't kill myself and everyone else in my car, what if I injure some innocent bystander? I don't think I could come back from that.

I think I'll just keep it below getting myself killed speed.:-)

No ones saying do that in a school zone (or anywhere) for that matter. We roll race on a 3 lane HW at 2-3 AM. If anyone is getting hurt its us, so no big loss.

No doubt. Once you hit 100-110 even if pulling you arent pulling hard.

That hold you back in the seat gforce is the shit.

Thats why I want to build a car for the Optima Ultimate Street Car Challenge one day.

Autocross, 0-60-0 mph challenge, 1/4 mile.

All around fun.

I've seen all kinds of people post a 3.9 time for their 0-60 time. I think it will accelerate fast enough.

I kicked a WRXs ass onto the freeway the other morning as we were both first in line next to each other getting on a two lane on ramp and he wanted a go at it.

I'll take acceleration over top speed all day too. I'd much rather put my foot in it for accelerating rather than fly down the freeway hoping not to get a ticket. Wife says I should change my 4:10 gears back to 3:55, but to me without huge horsepower in my Stang (360), the bigger gears are the best part of the car for awesome acceleration.

Yeah stick with 410s . What do you have a 4.6?

My wrx puts down about 280 with the stage 1 tune and an exhaust. Pushing about 19psi.

It just fast enough to have fun in, and be able to daily it as well.

Yea 4.6 GT with powerflow intake, 4:10 gears and Lunati Cams. More car than I need and shit gas mileage, but one hell of a daily driver for someone like me who's never been big on cars!

I would think swapping the gears back to the 3:55, which I do have, would maybe only change my gas mileage 1-2 MPG? Not sure all the money to do that would be really worth it.

I like the WRX a lot and I thought I'd probably go that route before I got a chance to buy the Mustang. I personally never thought I'd own an American car. lol. Great ride you have.

I dont know 2hat year your car ie but if its newer than 1996This might sound wierd for an american car, but bring it to a tuning shop if its never been tuned. American cars are known for running rich as hell. They should be able to get you a few more horses and better gas mileage and make it more reliable all together. These newer cars with computers running everything are finnicky about what you add to them

It's a 2005 and it's been tuned a bit. I also own the SCT Flash programmer as well.

Here's my lady that I posted earlier in this thread.
