2020 Dirty Dozen Discussion Thread
1) A Ford-powered Mustang/Capri with current registration, tags, and insurance.
Proof of registration, legal tags, and current insurance may be checked before the final 12 are decided so please make sure your car is current in these areas. We don't want someone kicked off the list over something as simple as this. No dealer tags, tags from your buddy, or any car other than yours. Tags/registration must match car in question. Owner may have help building his/her car of course, but they, the OWNER, will race it. No hired shoes to race for them.
2) Be an active member on this site.
You don't have to be a post whore. Just show up at some events, participate in the forums, help others build their rides, etc.. There's no membership fees, it's all free. This is just so somebody in another locale doesn't pop up on the site, post a number and expect to become part of the list. Stangbangerz is more than a message board. Its a close knit group of enthusiasts that happen to drive Mustangs. Hell, some of us have other rides/interests too, if you think of this small little section of the net as a message board only, well, you're wrong. Twisted Twins will be allowed on the list from here on out. This site, and this list, exist because of Vinny and TT, it only makes sense to allow it on regardless of where it is now located.
3) Break Rule/No Longer Own Car
If you break (have a catastrophic failure of some sort, like blowing your engine up) post up that you have done so and need to be removed from the list. This also applies if you sell your car.
The Dirty Dozen has always been on the "Honor System." When you break or sell your Stang, you are suppose to post it up so you can be removed from the list and give your fellow Stangbangerz the oppurtunity to join the list. If you've got a catastrophic failure or sell your car just post up that you've done so. We don't want to have to find out through the "grapevine" that you need removed from the list, just be upfront about it.
4) Tracks
Tracks will be opened up to allow board members that travel to other states, and other tracks in Ohio, to be able to use the times from these tracks for the list. We still want at least one SBZ member as a witness for Ets. If no member witnesses the run we will need a way to verify the run as legit (e.g., video, pic of the time slip).
5) Cutoff Date
The cutoff date for having your time count for The Dozen will be when the last of the local tracks closes for the year.

The intent of the Dozen is to see who has the 12 fastest street legal Mustangs (or Capris ) in the area. Don't make it a bigger deal than it needs to be. Unless we decide to take it to the next level, we're not going to worry about a bunch of rules, who's car is more streetable, blah, blah. Get your asses out there, have some fun, run whatcha brung and hope you brought enough. The end.
Remember kids, this is for fun, bragging rights and a decal....nothing more. No big money prizes, no sponsorship deals, no trophies....just some good ole boys bringing out their cars and putting a beating on 1320 feet of tarmac!
The "rules" are posted. I really don't want to get very strict on them. I tried keeping them loose enough so any local Stangbanger could get in on it at anytime.
DOT tires will not be required. Mufflers for turbo combinations will not be required.
Alright, here we go folks! Let's see how far into the 9s you can get this list in 2020! 2019 was great! Getting that 9 sec average came down to the very end and was a lot of fun to watch unfold! We have 1 Running of The Dozen set up so far in the Spring and we hope to have a few more throughout the summer. I'm hoping to see a lot of new PBs this year and the return of some members we haven't seen on the list in a while! Good luck to all of you!
