What does your car run again? Better yet, what do drive
i drive a 2012 mustang gt premium. i've not raced it yet. it's only just turned 1200 miles, and to be honest, she's most likely to see the twisties at milleville as opposed to going to atco.

my camaro was a 9.9 car.

Oh and ltcap you're retarded..literally.
Ummm, maybe you have me confused with someone else . I honestly don't know what you are talking about or why you think I am obsessed with you, wtf? lol. I only responded to one thing to you in this thread at first, and that was concerning an ignorant statement you made. Sorry if you don't like other people's opinions, but that does happen on internet forums. No need to be a dick about everything man, seriously.

I always thought you and I got along ok on here, but whatever. Also, I'm not sure what you mean by "pulling our tails and we fall for it everytime" lol? If giving an opinion constitutes falling for something than I guess we are all guilty of falling for your uncanny ability to troll and exercise word finesse . You're not that slick speedy, and you're coming off as an *******, just in case you missed everyone's statements.

I've been on here long enough that most people know what's what. Sure I have fun on here, but something tells me you don't. Anyways no worries man, I'm glad life is good for you. I'm glad your car was a 10 second car. I'm glad you take the time to dazzle us all with your statements and most of all, I'm extremely appreciative of your "facts" .

Ps. I actually like your German car, wish I had one. This section gets a little soap opera'ish at times imo lol, but it's funny sometimes too.

I guess I can see where that would be beneath you. I'm content with that kind of performance.

The E-Bay Headers were already on there as well, and were later swapped for Kooks stainless 1-7/8"s. To whomever is laughing I bet you couldn't afford a pair of those.
Come on man are you serious? Really? Some of us don't want to drop that kind of money on car parts.. if you think the rest of us pathetic f-body owners are just too poor to buy Kooks I think I know everything I need to know about you now. For a moment I thought I was wrong about you... but the 100K car does tell the whole story.

he's like most others.....once he's run out of things, he resorts to name calling. it's kinda fun to see that happen.

most german cars are over rated, over priced, and over engineered. hell....most of the mercedes i've driven, i feel like i'm sitting on the seat, not in the seat.

Says the guy who thinks foxbody 5.0's came optioned with 3.73's and GT's are 300 pounds heavier than LX's. Get outta here clown.

LOLOL

know what? i actually got the heated seats in my gt. it would've likely been a deal breaker for me if i couldn't have.
apparently, my body keeps trying to convince me that i'm getting old.....and having that heat on my back first thing in the morning.......goddam it feels good.

the first camaros are my absolute favorites. i used to get to work on a 69 302/4speed car with 4 wheel disc brakes. it was a trailer queen when the guy got it, with 49k original miles. i had to do a lot to get her in road worthy condition again......and to be honest? if i had driven that car when i was 17, i'd probably be more of a chevy nut than a ford nut.
the muncie tranny in that car had to be one of the smoothest shifting trannys i've ever driven.....the engine was still pulling at 7k rpm when i took her down the road, and the car was beautiful.

Meh. The new Mustang looks OK.

Let me ask you, if you raced a Foxbody GT in the past how in the **** did you assume the weighed 300lbs heavier than a LX, or came optioned with 3.73's. That's odd It's been years since I've owned my Fox(s) and I still remember that much. The old school Camaro sure looked a bunch faster than it was. 9.9 and "wasnt a street car"?

ZFrie and Oddwraith wipe the rest of it off your face will ya. :


I would post up some pics of toys but then you guys would say I was being a n egotistical bastard and remind me of how overpriced German cars and custom-painted Busa's are now wouldn't ya?

it went 9.9's best as we had it tuned. we didn't want it in the 9's. learn to read. i know i said that somewhere already. had we bumped the timing to where it belonged, jetted the carb where we should have, and installed the proper squirters, she'd have droped into the mid/high 9's easily. if i put her on the track with the current engine, we're looking at low 9's high 8's. the money i would've been spending to put her on the track is going to the 012 though, so she's in the garage.

to be honest, i have no clue what that mustang in the pic weighed with me in it. i built it to go fast, and keep my almost old *** comfortable on the street. virtually the only thing on that car that may have lightened it, was that hood......and i only put that on to clear the intake. the stock hood wouldn't clear the intake with the phenolic spacer installed. i got the hood cheap, so i hand painted it to match the car, installed it, and ran the car. i don't give a dam what a car weighs....it runs what it runs.
in the summer, i pulled to the line with the a/c running, and the radio on. they stayed on for the runs. in the cooler months, i left the heat running.

post em.
