Default Yeah, my car's stock...

LMAO!
Some people will just never know...

So, Turbo 396 LT1 powered 240 on dope, sitting on the trailer in front of my house to go to Nissan and have the steering rack re-aligned (got a friend there that sets tolerances to 0° for me) and this kid in a 02 V6 mustang pulls up and gets out of his car to ask what's done on the car.

him: Dude, sick 240 you got man!
me: eh, it's ok.
him: nah man, that thing's gotta be like mad fast!
me: can't be, it's too stock to be fast.
him: no way man, I bet it's got like nos and ****.
me: nah. Naws is for weeners.

I climb up into the truck and pull off.
At a light on the feeder of I-10 I hear him coming up behind me. Typical ricer fashion, high RPM in a low gear for no reason other than making noise. He pulls up next to me at the light and starts revving it up to launch.

Bing, green light.

My little 04 Titan quad cab begins walking away from his little mustang while dragging the race car along behind.


Jeebus, you'd think ricers would stick to Hondas, but noooo. They gotta go buy V6 mustangs to annoy you with. What I wanna know is, whay would a stock Nissan 240sx be sitting on 28x12.50 ET drags, and have an on/off switch in the middle of the license plate? LMAO, dumb people entertain me.

thats halarious

me and 4 of my buddies were going to the track in my moms truck

96 chevy extended cab w/ vortec 350, towing my 4 wheeler trailer with my 4 wheeler on it. we raced a girl in a v6 mustang (bodystyle right before the 99's). we were dead even from about 65-80, then she started to creep away from us. it was so damn funny. 5 fat guys, 4 wheeler, trailer, and big truck vs. mustang!! the ole 255hp just wasnt quite enough to pull it off.

guy at my girlfriends school has one of those titans that he thinks is a BEAST, he put GLASSPACKS on it the other day. sounds like dammit on a stick.

I'm gonna try and bring it by to get on the Mustang Dyno next week. We're taking it to SAR tonight to do some 1/4 passes for this weekend. I know it's not as fast as Ricks, but I gotta do license passes and all that crap.

I was thinking the same thing.

Gotta love the drama in Street Racing, every other section lacks it.
