Default Z28 with some guddies VS 04 Saleen with SC

Well was at cruising weekend and the weather was shitty almost the whole weekend almost... so Saturday night is nice and going out took look for some fun... and like always at Ocean City all the mustangs are driving together.

Well I ended up at a light with a 04 Saleen with sc setup and a new gt on the other side.... they both laughs and asked if the chevy would run.. you know the anwser the chevy is always up for that....
I spin like crazy but so do they and we are dead even to we have to brake for the next light. But hey atleast the tires are heated up now.
Now there is a cop sitting like 3 cars behind us and we just roll out easy, he pulls off to the right and he GT honks the horn.... we are going like 30mph and I ******* stump it, and break the tires loose again and damm my **** actually rolls out on even the Saleen. We raced til like 85 and I had almost 2 cars on him, we had to slow down for another red light.
I most admit I was smiling like a little kid and it was hard not to be sitting there with a dumb *** grin on my face, most of all because I did not even think I would win.
Well the dude then asked me what I have done and i tell me I have all bolt on's and head, headders and cam and a tune. He then asked me what tires and I tell him I got Nitto's on the boat.
Well the dude did not believe me, he was sure I had a SC too or running NOS and a least a 100 shot. Well had to prove him wrong, we pulled in to a parking lot and showed him i was not lying. After that he was still sceptical... I was still smiling and just rolled out again.

Damm good day that was...

NIce kills...I can't stand arrogant driver's. They need to open their eyes to other cars around them.

As for the S/C saleen..I am not surprised if he was all stock. Those things are more bark than bite......~320 RWHP...kind of sad really. Low 13s stock....you should have beat him with his setup......and to shut up their 'attitudes'.

I hope that saleen had a little something done b/c I would think that a heads/cam ls1 would pull harder than that....I guess it was only to 85 but still....

OP: Why did you think that you weren't going to win??

The new S/c Saleen's are 435 hp, and are a respectable opponent.
I hate the new Gt's and the Shelby is not worth 65K, but the new Saleens are ok in my book.

The new saleens look BAD ***, ford did a great job on the looks......but as usual they don't run like they have the advertised power.

Ford doesnt really do the looks on Steve Saleen's cars haha. Also the new saleen s/c model is in fact of 400hp so it runs pretty good. Better than the previous years 350 crank hp s/c saleen's

Maybe you didnt' see my post.......a new edge Saleen S/C (yes the charged ones) only put down 310-320 RWHP..not very impressive if you ask me. The 99-03s were rated at 360 and the 04s were rated at 370 (exhaust change). They also kept teh stock GT 3.27s, but were optional with 3.73s.......
