Great to be here guys, just happened to run across the site. I must say there is a wealth of knowledge here and I look forward being apart of this forum. I have plans for the car and might look to you guys for opinions
Only had it to the track once and ran into some serious wheel hop. Managed a 12.0 @ 120.77 Mph with a VMP 91 tune.
-Ran into some detonation issues with Justins VMP 91 tune when the air got dryer...not sure why I would even hear detonation due to the '10s having knock sensors that adjust timing....so after some deliberation I decided on a Jon Lund tune just a couple of weeks ago. Have not heard the detonation since. Curious to see what the difference in tunes will yield at the track, but will need control arms and better drag radials to get the power to the ground.
With the TVS prices dropping so fast...probably going to take that route in the future once the pricing has dropped to its lowest point.:spend:

Nice car..
Is it my imagination or are the stripes on the '10 wider than on the other?

Welcome to the site. If you can make it up to Shelbyfest, that would be great. There will be a lot of people from this site at that show. I'll be in Tulsa for the Mid-America Ford and Team Shelby Meet in the middle of June. I hope to see you there.

If there were Whips on every wall, it would be called a Dungeon Room. Not a bar.
