First video's of Sunday's Drag Racing

[Don Pfau]

My first two run were recorded on my camera then a friend with a good camcorder took over. The first run was against a Black GTO and I red lighted by 3/100 and I had only launched at 2000 rpm's and ran 12.7 The next run was against a Silver Challenger SRT-8 and I launched at 3000 rpm's and ran a 12.5. http://www.youtube.com/user/DonsCobraMarkVIII more videos and time slips later.

Mopar and GM boys can't touch the Mark VIII.

No dumps. Street exhaust custom made by my brother Barry at BARRY'S PERFORMANCE. I love it. And thanks

do you have any pics of the exhaust? i'm just curious what it is that makes it so damn loud lol! do you run headers also or just manifolds. how do you get away with that exhaust on the street, or is it pretty mellow just puttin around.

It's Kooks headers and a Magnaflow 2 1/2 " dual in and out resonator. true mandrel 2 1/2 " all the way back. It is mellow when ran easy. I do have so pictures but not here.

 

[Don Pfau]

Nice runs!

THANKS. Some on here have claimed 12's with a N/A Mark but I know you will be the first to actually do it and prove it. Good luck. I'd be honered if yours would out run mine.

 

[mlschultz]

Congratulations, Don! My nephews race their turbo Mustangs at Fayetteville all the time. Maybe one day we could get everyone together and have a track day!

 

[Don Pfau]

Thanks Mike, I would like that. And it would be an honor.

It's very simple the more power you make the louder your car will sound.
