My Saleen mustang I had in college ran about 10.3-10.5@ 135mph. There is no way an SL traps at that speed. That's enzo territory. and the Enzo is 1000Lbs lighter and has 600+hp. That's a blistering QT. My mstang would stand up with the front wheels off the ground in first and the beginning of second gear. Guys like that just don't know what a low ten second QT is like or what it takes to run that. Call him on it politely next time.
