stock M6 vs. stock M6 is a driver's race.

There was a Blue Mach1 on Patton the other night, I pulled up beside him and looked over but he wouldn't look and he ignored me. I just wanted to know if he was competition.

If your stock, then yes. If you're not, and still can't drive Ms. Daisy, then still yes.

Driver's race, stock vs. stock, as UNIT said.

I wouldn't be too intimidated, but not too cocky either. As the others have said, it will depend a lot on the driver.

Um, I am not sure how to take what you just said. Are you meaning to offend me in saying I can't drive? Probably not but I just transferred from a forum where I got that kind of crap a lot, and I don't take lightly to it.

I normally just sit back and watch the car a bit, listen to it as well. Although you can't tell much, SOME mods you can hear. If he slows down beside me its a go, if he um, speeds off and won't give me a second glance, heck i dunno. I'll try again if I see him again. I think I need to practice a litlt emore with my car, being new and all. I have plenty of friends who will race for fun. Can't wait till this weekend! More races!

Why, are you a shitty driver or something? Hell, if you suck at driving, you should just admit it. I'm a terrible driver, personally.

No i am a good driver, its just MEN think its funny to pick on girls, think they can't drive for some reason, I was taught well. I just got little jokes like that all the time, Mustang Forums was the worst, but i dealt with it, believe me, I can drive, PERFECT. Ask Blown FRC... he knows

I suck at shifting (the actual act of shifting)!
But I've gotten way better at learning my powerband and using it to my advantage (especially on roll races).

Practice makes perfect, and I practice often, I learn what I can, and a hydraulic is so much better than a cable.

So lets say I get an exhaust and some other minor mods, would that help me completely get a good nose or car on the Mach1?

I guess I didn't state my point clearly enough. What I meant is that even if you're modded, if you can't drive for a **** you may still lose. Just so you know, I didn't pay any attention to your gender, I pretty much bash everyone equally including myself. The Ms. Daisy thing was the title of the movie and it seemed to fit in my reply at the time.

That's a very random thing to ask given there is no baseline to work with.
I can tell you I can probably put at least a buslength on one.
In general, modding helps.

Ah ok, no worries then, its all good here! I know what you mean by being modded and still lose, just cuz your car is fast doesn't mean it can drive for you!
