Why should I race a stock automatic LS1? That was a good race against me when I was stock. Show me a timeslip of yours that would even make it worth my gas.

Might want to stick to the 2v's there junior.

This story must be BS because nothing can happen on the street, we all know that.
OP, how dare you street race with a prego girlfriend with you? Don't you know the importance of all our judgements and personal opinions are here in SR&K? Your two month old unborn baby experiencing 12 second acceleration will lead to a better reaction time during labor... You terrible terrible man... How will I ever sleep tonight knowing **** like this happens out in the real world..?

as stated,, its "stockish" and you talk a whole lot of **** for someone who doesn't have anything to back it up with. and your right, it would be a waste of gas for you to come up here and get stomped and ride back home in tears. but maybe the royal *** whoopin would convince you to ditch your rust bucket and get a real car.

Won't tell anyone your mods...have no timeslips to prove anything...Me thinks you are just a lonely slow idiot with a next to stock A4 LS1 that wishes he could outrun a Mustang. Nice fairy tale of a thread here also.

Some folks are just uptight and feel that everything needs to be proven. And then there's other folks that are more laid back and just don't give two ***** about proving a damn thing to some whiny internet joe that don't believe **** and always feels the need to complain about it.

Good job Arctic for pulling away from a much more powerful car that couldn't get enough traction.

1. last time i checked i gave you the time my car ran bone stock with slippery street tires on.
2. if i have to tell you my mods, your cars not fast enough to keep up
3. to this date i have only been beaten by a twin turbo sn95 and a turbo 08 gt. never had any other mustang (including mach1's) beat me.
4. timeslips dont mean **** on the street.

if it's a shelby, it's a 5.4 liter. i think the only way you're getting a supercharged 5 liter, is to buy a roush, or buy a motorsports blower, and install it.
