Click Here to View Whetstone's Run Tony Whetstone's Mustang is an exercise in how to get the most from your Mustang, as it has run 12.77 on street tires with just bolt-ons. Since then, the Pony has progressed to its current state, where it serves drag duty in Fun Ford's Street Stang class. Tony's ride is another low-mileage, quarter-mile killer as well, with only 33,000 miles on the ticker.
