I mainly hang out with F-body and a few Foxbody owners.

Back to the Stang, who knows maybe he seen a cop in the parking lot earlier and thought he was still there. Seriously what I find funny is how everyone says Mustangs make excuses, you know how many excuses I have heard from F-Body's? Its EVERYONE!! that maks excuses. Lol, cant we all just get along
Best post in the thread. I would have thanked the guy since if your luck is like mine, there would have been 3 cops eating whoppers as I flashed by at 100+mph... I've called people on my cell to warn of a cop running radar, but by the time they come by 5 mins later, the cop is gone. Better safe than sorry.

By the way...I was cruising in my Terminator Tuesday night. Not much happening. One kid in a Cobalt SS gave me a rev, laughed and then changed lanes and went the other direction. I finally pulled up to a light next to an 03/04 GT with a loud whistle under the hood. He gave me props at the light, yelled "Vortech" (we were behind traffic) and claimed to run 11s on DRs. I Hollered "turbo" to him. He then waved to me to hit the interstate. I followed and when traffic cleared, I heard the guy hit it as I pulled to his rear bumper. I was surprised how well that S/C 2v ran (as I went by him). Certainly well enough to take most nearly stock or bolt-on Terminators or LS1 F-Bods. My point is, you never know what you might run in to.

X2

And I agree that the guy in the Stang might have seen a cop there earlier and just didn't want to chance it. I certainly wouldn't blame him if that were the case.

When I first got married and started a family I was only making $8 an hour so I have felt your pain. But like unit213 said, if you work hard things have a way of working out and financial situations improve.

Mine did

Good luck with getting a race and stay safe.

More people need to be like Unit!! I've never seen a Mustang, Camaro, Ferrari, or Civic make an excuse. It's the people who make them. Take them out of their car and they are just stupid people who make stupid remarks, and it doesn't matter what they drive. And to the OP, I hate it when I am looking for a race and then find a car that you might think would want to, and doesn't.

Maybe its just me but I never get lame excuses from mustangs (or thier owners) Maybe its just the croud a roll around with. No matter what stang, wether is be a bone stock fox or a 800 rwhp cobra, they will all give me a run just for fun.

Maybe its because we are in the same car club?

Damn... That sure hurts!

HAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!

How people can come up with this stereotyping by the model of car is beynd me. "Every single Mustang makes excuses. LS1's rule."

Seriously... How stupid.

Cost of living. CA is WAAYYY overpriced. High cost of living equates to high wages. VA is not like that, at least in the west and south parts. 100K gets you a 2000 sq. foot house and an acre of land.

I'm 18, my Z28 would waste your car, and there are many mustangs I'm afraid of.

I like to do the usual chevy>ford jokes like everyone else, same as ford>chevy guys. Sure I could walk a lot of mustangs, just as easy as most fbodies, but some cars like unit's make me tuck my dick between my legs and hide.

The excuses are on both sides of the fence and will always be that way.

Choco,cool it with unit or i will block you for a few days....ok?
