Default Mojave Mile results. I ran a top speed of...

145.0 then
145.3
and finally a 143.9 having trouble finding 5th (took me a couple seconds).
The DA was 3000 feet at an actual 2700 feet (cloudy cool damp with a sprinkle a couple times). My initial goal was to do between 130-140 and shoot for 140, thus upgrading me from the 150 class to the 165 class. I exceeded my goal.

Big Red Camaro's best was 196.6 and finally a 200.7mph when I took off for home. The ZR1 corvette was running a 165.6. Many corvette ran 150's and a couple ran 170's. Many of the Ford GT's ran 160's and a couple ran in the mid 180's. A stock Dodge magnum SRT8 ran a 152.8 I have my pass on in-car cam video but very lazy to you-tube it. Good pics to come later I'm beat none3 . Need 400+ hp to break the 150's. Besides Big Red, I was THE ONLY f-body there. Seemed like a Corvette vs Ford GT top speed shootout ... GT's won with a 186 mph to speed pass.


The tech's werre trying to talk me into doing the Bonneville 100. 50+ miles all out (just need a roll bar or something to qualify for 140 class for that) then you go back none3 ... so much fun if I had the funds All in all It was a total blasst. They are planning to do it again 1st weekend in October.

Photo Album





edit: added video


enjoy

Great! Nothing like a 145 mph bedding session LOL . Acually I had to not brake too much as I had 3/4 mile to the turn off. They do their job!

I went under the car two more times before I got the lines tight enough The last time may of neet been necessary. I had to really torqe the bolts into the rear calipers

ar Craft and a bunch of Press were there so don't be surprised that an article will appear later this year on it


I do have a run on video of my 145.3 mph pass.

Yeah, I did! It sounded sick! Last run I saw he didn't go fast as I guess he thought something was amiss.

Ford never made a 2002 cobra, the black gt had some problems and only hit 138. I took my competition orange cobra and did a 163.3 with 315's on all corners. 480rwhp at the last dyno session.

The magnum told the blown challeger guy, the charger rt guy and me it was stock. After his 149mph we called bs and he opened his hood and came clean, cam, heads, tune, cat-back and tb. It was impressive none the less.

the fastest of my 3 runs was 182.3 mph on stock tires. i have a 2.87" pulley + 100 octane and catback exhaust. my weather station was reporting a corrected DA of 4000' above sea level and a 10 mph crosswind on my run. i look forward to going back someday with a 4.0 whipple and some borla headers, etc. i think with the whipple and some nitrous i can go 200+ mph at the mojave mile.
