Sounds familiar.

My 89 must have been a freak of nature to have taken so many stangs and that buick turbo car, what were they called ? Oh yeah a grand national. Something must have been wrong with his turbo.
Do you ever go to the strip? ATCO? Reading?

THAT right there shows me just how IGNORANT you are. Once you race at a drag strip then you can have an opinion. Until then, I will give it to you.
SHEESH, I can't believe you ACTUALLY posted that. THere is a HUGE difference between street and track. OMFG......I just can't believe your ignorance on the matter.

In a perfect race at the track with us both leaving at the same time as our cars stand now I think we would be pretty even from what I saw when we ran the other night. Perfect races never happen though and it would be a drivers race between us.

Going 80 mph and the piece of **** just dies has nothing to do with the clutch. And trust me I have had more than enough experiance handling high hp cars with manual tranny.

Half tank. It was hilarious. The salesman was freaking out... called the dealership and wanted a truck to come out. I was laughing my *** off. I just started the stupid thing back up and kept goin. He was as much of a tool as most ford guys... so what can you expect

But funny none-the-less...
I've had 2 3rd gens, an 85 w/LG4 305 and a 5 speed... It was a turd but it would hold its own against some cars and get owned by others. I did beat my friend with a 89GT with an auto and 2.xx gears. I usually stuck to racing the imports with this car, as many more mustangs beat me than I beat.
I also had a 87 Iroc with a 305 tpi and an auto and got lit my a 90 5.0 with a cat back. When I say got lit, i mean I got the jump and watched him sail past me.. That was another import killer as 5.0 mustangs were usually a bit faster than me.
My 95 camaro was another story though, it would hold its own to an LS1 and the 5.0 fear was a thing of the past. I do like the 5.0's though. They are nice cars and I wouldnt mind sourcing a good example in the future as a project car. I like the mustangs, but dont have a lot of respect for the 1'st gen 4.6's though. When they finally put the P.I. heads on em, the became nice to me once again.
I do agree with the Break out of the 13's before you can talk **** rule though... At least I've gone 12.6 in my 95... With a timeslip to back it up...

I personally would only own a 69-70 or an 05+. Also, I think Mach 1s and Cobras are in a different class kinda like the black bird editions. Good feelings all around though.
PS, a 3rd gen would kill a Fox in the turns, not to mention they are beautiful
