The ZR-1 Corvette, and a multitude of tuner cars with 700+ horsepower, barely hit 11's (or perhaps a 10 second pass with perfect conditions, traction, and a pro driver), and the 1000 hp Bugatti Veyron can crack a low 10-second et....but 8's? The Mustang would need 1000+ horsepower (probably a turbo, or a supercharger and a heck of a lot of nitrous), and a chassis setup for drag racing.

Don't get me wrong, I would LOVE to see evidence of an 8-second Mustang straight from-the-factory, I'm just looking for a link to read about them... [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/smile.gif[/img] </div></div>
