That is exactly how I feel about Grand Nationals.

damn, my friend had a Mach 1 (orange too) and the car was so fast, he was scared to touch the man pedal after he dared venture off into no mans land. He had to settle for a SN95 5.0 to sleep easier at night.

In fact I have never lost to a mustang before until I encountered a Mach 1... **** my life...

Did you realize there is a weight limit stamped on a Mach 1 front seat?

I figured that was you. You made me tip over on my motorcycle.

minimum weight requirement to be on this ride?? (serious note...you serious?? lol)

If you don't weigh enough I am sure it will throw you in the back seat of the car when you hit 500rpms past the 7k redline.

Just went outside to see exactly what it said.

"It is not recommended that any person over the weight of 280lbs sit in seat while car is in motion. Doing so while at full throttle could result in the seat breaking from the g-force combined with the weight of the person. Injury or possible death could result."

Obviously if you add more power you have to take away weight to stay in the safe zone.

He istalled it and drove it down without the belt on. Showed him around the french quarter made him eat gator, crawfish, and oysters. When it came time for him to go the car started leaking ps fluid. He had a line rubbin against the crank pulley. Full of beer and crawfish on a late sat evening we stole a line off of another car in the shop and went to work. Bad thing was the the ps pump was smack dab in the middle of the blower bracker. Had to take everything off. Finished at midnight.





Good times...
Thats what I'm talking about!

BTW: I effin' love crawfish. A friend of my moms is Cajun. I love spicy food, potatoes, and corn, what else could I need?

What the hell would you know about cajun food? You live in WV.

It truely was badass. Made me read up on it some. I'd love to see a History Channel about the real feud and not a movie type thing.

The whole tied 3 sons to trees/bushes and just shot them in the woods because they killed a brother. Damn...thats some cold ****.

I love crawfish, I lived in Lousianna for a few years as well as Alabama for about 8 years of my childhood. I miss the southern cooking. Crawfish, boiled peanuts, gumbo ect.
