Ok I wanna know who here can tell mewith hands on expericnce what the 1/4 mile time of the 2003 Ford Mustang Mach1 are. Ive read that they are 13.9 area but others claim 13.09??? :wtf:

Low to Mid 13's.

Low to Mid 13's.

I have seen three run at Sac, 14.1, 13.9, 14.0

Eh, I've seen one smoke a Camaro SS and the Camaro ran a 13.6, Mach 1 ran a 13.3

He wanted real world results, can you guarantee that the 03Mach1 running 13.3 was stock?

If so then there you go real world results(who knows how good the driver is):

14.1, 13.3, 14.0, 13.9

14.1, 13.3, 14.0, 13.9Yep, It was factory stock.

They run from 14 sec. flat 1/4 mile times to 13.2 sec. 1/4 mile times with drag radials. On street tires I think they might pull a 13.4 sec. 1/4 mile if they are lucky. They dyno around 282 rwhp, and are considered easy to launch.

A MACH1 with a decent driver will pull mid 13's. With a skillfull driver low to flat 13's. Barring anything like horrible track conditions etc..,

Yea I went there but people on my local furm claim to hit 13.09 with stock everything and took it to the track and there are witnesses. I just wanted to know if anyone else has had any first hand viewings of such events

i raced on once, it ran a 15.5 lol

Did the guy know how to drive???

Haha obviously not...they run with Camaros, Z28's and SS's alike, which is basically somewhere in the 13's.

There's always gonna be that one out of a thousand of them that produces a sick 1/4 mile time. For instance one of the guys on www.evolutionm.net got a high 12 sec. pass out of a stock evolution 8. That is by no means the norm. I'm sure there are alot of Mach 1 owners in the high 13's. They are easier to launch then a LS1 from what I have read, so they will most likely win against an LS1 powered F-body , although most LS1's produce more power.

And the mustangs are marginally lighter i do believe....

What do 03 GT's run? Low 14s?

It's not the GT's that run mid 13's but the Mach1.

yeah i know ha ha i was asking a seperate, slightly OT question, just wondering

Dude at my school runs like 14.2-3's in his mach 1 (not a great driver)....the only thing he's got are cobra r rims and maybe a CAI...stiill a nice car!

Yea a teacher, who happens to be the dad of my friend has one. Hes got the red one and he let me drive it around in the parking lot once. I dont like the positionning of the shifter (its slightly on n angle facing towards the driver) But like I said, that people in my local forum claim that they saw a stock Mach 1 (2003) run 13.09, consistantly. Now it might have hit those numbers but I doubt he kept getting them back

i love the sig raz!

Well considering those times are close to the 03 cobra i kinda find that hard to believe

isn't that dmx?

In the August 03 issue of 5.0 Mustang and Superfords, they ran a 03 Mach 1 to 13.19 at 106.7 MPH. This was in stock form with street tires.

In the March 03 Issue of MM&FF, they ran a 03 Mach 1 to 13.13 at 105.5 mph with a 2.07 60 foot time. This too was also bone stock. Any drag racer knows that if slicks were added to achieve a 1.8 or 1.9 60 foot, the Mach would have be in the 12's no problem on that run.

In the March 04 issue of MM&FF, they did a shoot out between the 04 GT, 04 Mach 1, and 04 Cobra.
04 GT auto, 14.095 at 96.64 mph
04 Mach 1, 13.156 at 105.35 mph
04 Cobra Convertible, 12.778 at 111 mph

Now granted these are times by pretty much pro drivers, so to the average Joe, he would more then likely see mid to upper 13's in the Mach 1 until he became a seasoned driver.

Check out www.mach-1.org (http://www.mach-1.org/) or www.mach1registry.com (http://www.mach1registry.com/) and I'm sure you will find lots of useful info.

Thanks HiFlow5,
Ive already had some sources of times for the Mach 1 but I was asking from actually seeing one run.
To PunkAlex and youngvr4,
Yea it is DMX and he's the best. I like his earlier stuff better than most of his new songs.

Those mach ones are definantley the best deal if you want a mustang. The cobra on the other hand I think they dropped the ball IMO. Hopefully the next gen cobra offers a little more.

Mustangs aint my style. But still a wonderful machine none the less

Same with me. I do love racing GTs though...

Yeah amazing that Mustang website also pulled a 13.1 out of a Camaro SS...thats not exactly common.

Machs seem to run low 13s with a skillful driver. Mid 13s seem to be what most amatuer drag racers run. They usually make on average 320 crank hp and 340 crank tq.

320 at the crank??? where you pulling this info from?

I guess in Sac there are not even "amatuer" drivers, just inept one- legged retarded midgets. The best I have seen them pull is a 13.9

I've seen a couple of mach 1s run mid 13s at Palmdale Raceway in Ca. But never really seen anyone run anything lower..I'm giveing you real world times..

Yea thanks that's what I was looking for

Lemme redo that. A skilled driver will run low 13s, a good driver mid and amatuer high. As for hp, you need to see some mach1 dyno sheets. Ive seen in person mach1s put down anywhere from 265 at the wheels to 290. 15% drivetrain loss and your around 305-330 crank.

Yes I've heard somewhere that they underrated the Mach1's performance numbers due to the previous years before where they claimed higher numbers for the Cobra. But 320 at the crank is complete and utter lie. 290's at the wheeles is more believeable

"But 320 at the crank is complete and utter lie. 290's at the wheeles is more believeable"

HAHA!!! Dude look at what you just wrote. You totally just made yourself look stupid...

:lol2: Holy Fuck Shite.... I so need to read more carefully and type properly....I guess it's what you get when your on forums at work

Almost all Mach 1's are producing 272-290 rwhp. Ford made absolutely sure to underrate the horsepower on the Mach 1. That would equate to about 330 at the flywheel. I think they are a great car, and extremely user friendly. From a dig I believe they will smoke an LS1, because LS1 powered F bodies are extremely hard to launch off the line. From a roll though, kiss your butt goodbye. I know that some LS1's have dynoed as high as 340 rwhp. My old car ran a 106 mph trap speed at elevation. Corrected it would be 109mph, and that was with very minor modifications.
