Default Ls1 TA vs HCI Coupe

so, i'm driving along minding my own business when in my rearview mirror i see an ls1 trans am darting out of traffic and heading my way. i'm in the slow lane and he gets out of traffic with a full run in the fast lane at me. i let him get to my rear bumper, drop it into 3rd and nail it...his rear bumper makes my front bumper before i stop his pull and roll back around him. the best part was watching his girlfriends head drop as i went by and then slowing down to 50mph in a 65 and he wouldn't come back near me...lol.

I'm guessing you drive a fox body considering there is no 4th gen firebird that isn't a hatchback and it say's coupe in the title . Am I missing something ?

Good kill. Again, details on the Mustang. I love me a nice Fox, especially if its a notchback. Brings back a lot of memories

Must be a stout car to stop a pull like that

it runs pretty good. plus with all the weight i've pulled out of it it doesn't weigh much. believe me my TA is a much nicer car but the mustang is faster.
