don't understand why only 5 moded Z's in the 12's ???

OP, It's just a numbers game. Far more mustang owners drag race thier cars than 350/370z owners. If they do, they either just do it for fun on ocassion or

OP, It's just a numbers game. Far more mustang owners drag race thier cars than 350/370z owners. If they do, they either just do it for fun on ocassion or are really serious about. Also depends a lot on the track conditions, weather, temperature and most importantly the driver. Mechanically, you're right, "332 and 350hp" should be enough to run in the 12's under the right circumstances. Personally it seems like you're coming off as someone who's just here to troll the forum, but I'll give you the benifit of the doubt. You already seem to know the answer to your own question though.

yup, and far more 350's than 370's. And let's face it, the profile of a Mustang owner is much more prone to being a stoplight racer than a refined Z owner.

Right Red_Zed and Steve?

LMAO. May I suggest you try racing at LRP at least for five years and under instruction before making an absolute fool of yourself. Son, I've gone faster on two wheels than you would ever possibly go on four.
