Congrats!!!!!!!  I really like that color scheme!

FWIW... The drivers out at HotRod squeaked out an 11.8 on that car stock...

My 'stang needs more break-in miles and some better air to really get some quick times.   We are running 12.4 @ 115 in 2800 DA at this point but I think there is potential for better numbers.

That thing was moving pretty good!  It sure does shift alot - I guess that's what 10 gears gets you. :)  Way to beat that Charger!

Add 10 more gears and you are almost at the fast and furious shift points!!!

Nice run Bruce!!

Nice win bruce, cant wait to see what that car will run once shes tuned!

Tranny shifts super fast and very firm.  Uses 6 speeds in the quarter mile and when you back off and brake, it does rev matching downshifts.  It is the best transmission I ever experienced.

Glad they still make the 5.0.  Partial to that sound :)
2007 Ford Edge SEL, Powerstop F/R Brake Kit, TXT LED 6000K Lo & Hi Beams, W16W LED Reverse Bulbs, 3BSpec 2.5w Map Lights, 5W Cree rear dome lights, 5W Cree cargo light, DTBL LED Taillights

If tuned:  Take note of the strategy code as you return to stock (including 3 bar MAP to 2 bar MAP) -> take car in & get it serviced -> check strategy code when you get car back -> have tuner update your tune if the strategy code has changed -> reload tune -> ENJOY!

The 5.0 sounds good and the videos do not really do it justice.   They lack the low end torque of the turbo V6s though.   A 3.5 SHO or even my 3.0 Continental has more punch below 3000 rpm.   The 5.0 is at its best between 5000 and 7500 rpm.

Might explain why you felt the differences at the track.
