I agree with him. Around here there are a lot of 94 – 04 GT’s that just think they are the best thing god ever created. Every time I see one they want to rev up and act all tough and It just makes me shake my head and laugh. Now there are a good amount of F-bodys around here, some cammed some supercharged and they don’t start half the crap these GT’s w/ only a catback do. Now maybes its just me but if I see something w/ a 150 or so more hp then me will I try to “show off” no. Would I run them? Sure I race for fun not money so I would try anything just to see how I stack up. With all this said I do have a few mustang friends and there are some cool ones but when it comes to around my part of PA they are much bigger Aholes then the ls1’s I see. Just my .02

Hold on guys, don't be too quick to bash the poster on his comment, I think I know what he's talking about. I know in my experience alot of Mustang owners I've met happened to have the "I drive a Mustang therefore I cannot be beaten" attitude. I've met a handfull of cool owners too, but most of the one's I've met in person are too cocky. I've actually met only one F-Body driver that was a douche bag, mostly all cool people that I've met. I guess it's just all about who you meet.

He WAS drunk at the time, but that still = douchebag.

I think respect comes from the driver of the car. Or atleast should. But most times the disrespect comes from the guy who thinks his car is unbeatable. Everyone hates this type of attitude no matter where it comes from.
I think it's more of the other driver not giving your car the respect it deserves more than anything else. But the Stang showed you your respect and got yours in return.

Typical statement in the "Kills" Forum on a Mustang Site:
"Most LS1 owners are douche bags, some are ok. But most of the Mustang guys I've met are cool".

Typical statement in the "Kills" Forum on a Ricer Site:

Carry on.

I've only met 1 mustang owner in person that I like, and he has a beautiful Cobra. Every other mustang in my town either tries fly-bys or pulls some kind of assholeish move. Not just mustangs, but many imports as well. If there were more LT1/LS1 in town I would probably get the same effect, but I can about count them all on my fingers and toes.
Seems like a fair amount of the mustang guys around here are cool, though.
