I'll need a supercharger, a forged engine, and NOS shots to keep up with either of you... 
One day I'll have 8 cylinders of might in my life...

you'll need a Supercharger when i meet you at the Pod
Bring a 10s car or go home, rules are you have to drive it there on legal tyres and drive it home.
Bring something on a trailer, with slicks, not road legal is cheating.

yea exactly......a 380HP Evo wont cut the ice, but a 600HP will, but only if it's fresh and strong and not a knackered out pile of Ebay junk..........which is what most Evos are

Mal you will need to actually buy a car to compete at Santa Pod mate...

It was light hearted banter from your Evo thread where you changed your mind constantly....

Why the rude sarcastic response?
Given your track record over the past few days it was a very valid comment. Do you actually own a car that requires Gibbo to fit a supercharger to compete against?
Can vouch for the Wipple blower Gibbo, A friend of mine has one in his RS5 - it's stonking! and the wine coupled with a V8 turns heads everywhere. <Add to Basket>

Beautiful motor dude awesome machine
Completely stock:
AUTO V8: 12.5s @ 113mph
Manual V8: 12.7s @ 112mph
Tune (460BHP) with suspension modifications (Vertical links, bushes etc):
AUTO V8: 11.7s @ 117mph
Manual V8: 11.9s @ 116mph
They respond extremely well to just a tune and some simple suspension modifications to eradicate the wheel hop when launching hard.
Of course the above times are from real owners who enjoy drag racing but it shows what the car can do out the box and what less than $1000 thrown at suspension and remap achieves.
Of course throwing a Whipple or Roush on them gives you a 10s car if you can launch it.

Hey Gibbo, long time no speaky.
So you're back in the 'stang gang! Fond memories of your previous one fast one. I suppose that's the aim with this new one?
Hope all's well.

100%, really nice car, but those wheels let it down so much.
I am in agreement with you guys, it will look better when lowered, but of course darker colour (not black) and different design would transform the car.
But they will remain on the car for the life of the tyres, then I shall get decent tyres affixed to much nicer wheels which will then go on. But right now it makes zero sense to shell out for wheels and tyres whilst I have brand new tyres to wear out.
But I agree new wheels with more aggressive offset and dropping the car an inch will transform the look in a positive way.
Sure is!
