2023 m240i x drive, built gearbox, 7275, carbon driveline, axles and 4 drag radials. turned down to 750awhp daily, 950awhp at the track. ive been driving it all over california, vegas, and am driving it across the country to FL2K this week. ill beat the crap out of it, turn it up to 1000+ awhp on a factory sealed block, and probably drive back to california just fine. maybe 65k into this project, including the car. it has about 15k miles of abuse with this setup in the last 4 months alone and still gets 36mpg at 75mph in eco mode on e85.

I'm a service tech at Tesla. I get to play with all the fast shit, Model X and S Plaid, Model 3 performance, engineering cars with horsepower numbers that I'd be violating my NDA even hinting at. 0-60 in 3 seconds has become underwhelming for me. I would still laugh manically and smile ear-to-ear in this foxbody. NOTHING can beat how visceral cars like this really are, the exhaust, the dog box, the heat, the fumes, everything about them is apart of the experience that EV's seriously just don't have.

Fox chassis cars are the cheapest, easiest, quickest way to go drag racing. Small car+ Short wheelbase+triangulated 4 link rear+ strut front suspension= an almost perfect starting point for drag racing. But cheapest, easiest, quickest doesn't always equate to the best. I've owned 3 Fox Mustangs. They're great. But if I had to the money to build any car I wanted. I would keep and modify any mustang to remain a touring vehicle that goes left and right and could tackle a mountain road. And there is about 5 other cars I would choose to drag race before a mustang.

Hey i get it. You push in the clutch then lift gas then shift then release clutch and push accelerator. Just like you were taught. Forget the clutch once your moving forward. Time a slight toe lift of accelerator as your shifting. With practice no crunch and standard gear boxes are not used on drag same as street. You wanna trap in 4th gear around 7500rpm. Shift like i say and .6 seconds will come off your 1320 times...

The reason the fox body is so popular and usually such a dominant drag car is because of the measurement from the chassis to the rear end. For big tire racing its better to have that measurment be shorter because it prevents tire shake. I mean at a certain point you can always get tire shake but just helps having the shoeter car basically. Thats why you see damn near every drag race event theres always more foxbodys than anything else. Also this is t a proven thing its just what alot of people believe

Well That's Misleading, your thumbnail says a 1000 horsepower stock when its anything but stock if its got a motorfrom a 2015 mustang in it like that, as the original 302's need a specific reinforcement in the block to take over 400 or it will literally rattle itself apart not to mention the cost of modifying the car, and reengineering everything to work right as the foxbody was a good rebirth and return to what made the mustang great, but they have their limits and are not the car to use for drag specials, given they might get wrecked like go for one of the new age ones, those are so cheap and plentiful that most dont care if they get wrecked, and the cobra independent R rear suspension I think is still avalable for them as I remember matt farah having to basically retrofit and reengineer that to fit on his CHP fox body back in the day but for a modern terminator, that might be flat out bolt on and good for modding

Fox body is the car I love to hate, the stock 302 is enough to have fun in it when modified and not done properly the 302 becomes rather irritating and will leave you stranded if you guys are looking into getting to the platform I would recommend getting rid of all EGR stuff and excessive vacuum trees. This will make the car easier to work on unless you are going full-on cyote build.
