  FWIW, most of the mustangs I see at NYIRP run mid to high 14's.
I have no idea how extensively they're modified. I did run against
one early fox body mustang (basically stock) which turned a 14.6 to
my 14.8. Gave him one heck of a surprise when this big ol' truck
blasted past him outta the hole and kept that 4" Gibson tip pointed
at his window most of the way down the track! (He passed me at the
end though.) :-)

  He walked over in the staging lanes after to see what I had
under the hood...
