mmm, so

Yes, stock thunderbirds/cougars are slow, and if you raced the V6, even slower (3.8 with 140hp?,3700lbs!! (4.6 V8 205hp 280tq; 3800lbs!!)(SC 95 230hp, 330tq @ 2500rpms) now a stock Supercoupe is not that fast (15-15.5), unless is modded, I'm not here to troll, I respect every single car out there (rice: I do not) but there are some heavily modified T-birds running 14's, 13's some with power adders, others with just bolt-ons. There's an low 11 sec SC and a high 11 Thunderbird, so Not all TBirds/Cougars are an easy kill, same goes for Civics, Neons, or anything where the owner is a car nut and has a really fat wallet. Nice cars, btw

My 1995 T bird SC ran a best of 13.1 @ 118 )modded of course) 285hp to the wheels

A cl just cant put that kind of power to the ground efficiently.

I knew somone who had a 91 SC T-Bird. He put a slightly smaller pulley(more boost), K&N, exhaust, and gears. He pulled a 13.8. I was impressed. Saw it with my own eyes at the track.

118 trap on less than 300 hp? What's your race weight? 2000 pounds?

Also, a 13.1 on a 118 trap is not at all efficeint, what was the 60'? 3.4?

Your numbers don't make any sense man.

there's a kid at school with late 80's early 90's T-bird Turbo Coupe.(I'm pretty sure it isn't the 302 version) he has custom pipe (he might have headers I don't know whats under the hood) but he acts like it's the baddest car in the area. I flat out told him a CL type S owner would make you his bitch he said no it wouldn't it's some damn ricer that thinks he can run and really he can't. I'm like whatever

I think he's reffering to the typical "Riceboy" image. Rims, Big exhaust, stupid ground effects, pointless wings, 123,546,454,232,556,434 fog lights on the front of your car, 4 ft spoilers, etc...

The whole my 4cyl or 6cyl can beat your V8 attitude with "intake"



Watch Fast and Furious to get an idea of what rice is.
