thats not 180mph, looks more like 100 or a little over, but not anywhere near 200 like description says

Since it was a Motor Trend Magazine Shoot and they had it on radar, I tend to believe it.

NICE!!! Is Motor Trend planning on running a story on this car? Or Livernois Motorsports? What airstrip was this shot at?

[LivernoisMotorsports]

We sold the car at Barrett-Jackson. It was featured in the June 2006 issue of Motor Trend, July 2006 issue of Modified Mustangs, November 2006 issue of 5.0 Mustangs and Super Fords (Cover Car)and several online publications.

DAMN!!! Was that a radar confirmed pass or just going by the speedometer?

[LivernoisMotorsports]

It was radar confirmed by Motor Trend Magazine

Some people know nothing about runways. Airport runways can be upto 13000ft or longer depending on the airport, a runway can be close to 3 miles long, it isn't some dead end street behind your house. Also, you can clearly see in the beginning of the vid that the camera is being zoomed out as the car gets closer and zoomed in after it passes. If aimed straight ahead waiting for the car to pass by you wouldn't even see it pass by all you would see is a black blur.

How much power is it making?

If u cant hit 180 in a mustang with a turbo in it thats ur own fault ive taken my dads focus and for shits and grins hammered. It to about 147 soooo fuck u ur just mad cause ford prooved that the mustang can still hang with the camaro ^_^

Its on a dyno. Do it on the street please

@probercr93 Well, the GPS said 182, but the math with the 5th gear ratio, the rear end ratio, and wheel/tire size, at rev limiter, put it at 181.66 Mph. Dont know what else I can tell ya bud.

[probercr93]

@afwunn ok, so just out of curiousity, with a 140 mph speedo how did you know you were going 181?

[afwunn]

@probercr93 Well, the numbers don't lie, to 181 she went. Good luck with your build!!!

[probercr93]

@afwunn I'm sorry, but I have a turbo 05 mustang with 4.10's and there is no way it would hit 180 mph at the top of 5th. I've never topped it out but 4th will get 125ish so I would think 5th would probably be 155-160 at the very most. Now with the stock 3.55's I could see 180ish. This is why I'm going with 3.31's on my new build. Mostly so I know I'll be fine running the 1/4 without having to shift into 5th. I'll probably be 140+ in the 1/4.

[dayonguinyard]

Lets be real, any mustang thats going 180+ needs about 600+ hp and tunes. The stock gt 500 only hits 160 without govenor. I read a super snake with 700+ hp hit 192.7 mph. Im thinking at this rate, mustangs will need 1000 hp to go 200+. Massive power, low speed. Now how does that happen? Forget a drag race, americans want speed now.

@6129golf dont be stupid 180 does not look that fast on a camera

[afwunn]

Its totally possible. I have a vortech setup on my 07 and have hit 181. Thats as fast as she'll go though. That was hitting rev limiter in fifth gear with 4:10's and stock 18 in wheels/tires.
