Yeah, I can see it if it was like a pre 99 V6 stang, cuz my mom had a 96 Explorer with a 5.0 and that thing would haul ***(for an SUV)and would probably take a 6 banger of the same year. I'm sure a 99-04 would take it tho, and an 05^ with the 4.0 would have destroyed it lol. It is fun racing in slower cars, the races seem to last so much longer, I ran a stock 88 GT with my moms stock 94 GT auto Vert. The damn race lasted for ever, but it was fun.

I have an embarrassing story to tell, which this blog brought flashbacks of, , my name is bostonredsox_ws6 and I am not an alcoholic daily, only on weekends....
so one day I was driving home in my deceased V6 mustang Manual transmission 1996, and I was caught on a feeder by a Chevy Cavalier all riced out, so I flore it and starting hitting the gears, ( this car so fucked up in the motor nevertheless it still ran), so Im racing down the freeway side by side with a cavalier and see him start to gain 1 car, 2 cars and by the end 5cars, I then saw my life flash between my eyes and a tear came down my cheek, I had asked the motor to do all it could do and yet it still failed me....
With my tail between my legs I drove the rest of the way home.......*Cries,
Good thing now I have a WS6, and this should not happen again, at least not to a cavalier...lol

Hehe join the crowd. I got smoked in my 86 IROC by a Dodge Shadow Turbo Convertible. Granted there was a little snow on the ground but I have no doubts it wouldn't have made a difference.
