My 2011 F150 runs 14.4 in the 1/4 Mile

This past Sunday, the drag strip opened for the first time this year. I was able to make 4 passes and my best time was 14.44 @ 95.75 MPH (governor kicked in right before the traps).
My truck is a regular cab STX 2wd with the 5.0 and 3.31 standard axle. Not having a limited slip was a pain and only netted me a 2.135 seconds to the 60 foot mark, but overall I am pretty happy with my times
For this upcoming weekend's track day I will have the Boss 302 intake, AFE air intake and a SCT tune ready to go for round 2!

Very nice. With a good tune the single cab trucks are hitting 13.9. Congrats.

Awesome time considering it's literally bone stock. Loving these new 5.Ohhhs!
I'm almost sure with your new mods, you'll break 13s easily. Is 5StarTuning gonna do your tune?

I think maybe slightly lower times would be possible is E85 since Ford says they truck will make another 10-15 hp or so but I was hitting the speed limiter though so I don't know.

My new mods, (boss intake, AFE air intake and tune) got me to 13.94 at 99 mph. My 60' times are awful with a open differential, 3.31 gears, and stock tires. A 01+ lightning was running the same day and he was only running 14.1's with less MPH (~96mph).

Had to have been an idiot behind the wheel or the truck was in need of a serious tune up. Congrats on your times though.

very good time.

just goes to show how much weight plays a roll. rumor is that the in the near future the mfgs are looking to drop 400 to 500 pounds in the new trucks.

any idea what a regular cab f150 weight is?
