Nice Kill man I am from your neck of the woods also. Get that mustang on the horn I know of two more LS1's that would LOVE to have a shot at that thing. IF that mustang actually made 380hp it should have ran closer to you than that. I think he needs to get more seat time and get another shot at you. I'm not taking anything from your kill at all but I ran a 400whp 04 GT and was dead even both times we ran from a 30 roll. You should not have pulled that GT by two cars if it was properly driven. Anything can happen on the street though. Very Nice car BTW when we gonna meet up.

Good kill. Just curious though, what bolt ons do you have to be able to put 2 car lengths on a 380whp mustang?

Nice kill, but get ready to get walked once he gets more seat time. What kind of tire and gear is in the Stang? What type of bolt-ons are you running?

That's what I am thinking. A few 385rwhp 2v stangs around here usually beat slight to mid bolt on modded LS1 fbodies.

Does he have a tune also? Either that mustang isnt making near the amount of power he says he is, or he is an absolutely terrible driver.

You sir, are a monument to dramatic recreations in story telling. Your vivid word choice and bold voice make me feel like I was sitting in the passenger seat of your vehicle. Applause for you good sir, applause for you.

No one bashed on you sir. Myself and others told you good kill. Not a single person threw a bs flag. We simply stated facts that race should be closer than it was. No ifs ands or buts about it. You won I'm not denying that fact but simply put you beat the driver.

Nice kill op......but dont' expect that next time.


and going by your post I'd assume that you expected a lot of pats on the back since it was a kill against a mustang. Members that have been around the block a time or two will tell you like it is.......as you have now whitnessed.

Again, nice kill, but dont' expect that next time as he should have put a good 2 lengths on you.

I raced a supercharged GT around the 02 year range. Roll race from 60-110. A cop came over the hill at around 110. It all worked out. But, I thought it was a normal GT until i got next to him. It had a nice whine to it and he had a big smile on his face before we went. I heard that nasty whine out my window the whole time. I held His nose was at my rear bumper throughout the race. That was with A4 LT's, lid, tune, 3:23's and LS1 intake manifold.
