Because they are so utterly embarrased thier Corvette got beat by another car, they lose thier mind because thier whole world revolves around racing people on public streets from 65mph-110mph; and when they lose they just can't bear the shame so they flee to the nearest exit, disregarding where they were going and what they where doing.

And when they finally manage to get home they check LS1tech to see if a similar car posted a kill story.

i hang out with mustang guys lol

I did have a guy in a fox body that sounded pretty mean behind me on a 2 lane side street dry hoping his car behind me at a light, then drop the hammer and pass me in a now passing zone at WOT, then hit the brakes hard so he could turn into his development.. Thought that was kinda gay.

He looked at me.... then looked at my integra.... gave me a "Yeah Right" look.... and looked straight ahead again as if to say.... your p.o.s is no match for my new saleen.

I honked at him again and he refused to even bother looking back over at me.I was sooo pissed!!! I was thinking to myself..... "little does he know that this little p.o.s would rape him no matter which model 281 he has!!!!" We were in traffic and I had somewhere to be so I didn't press it...... but that's the third time I've been left with a bad taste in my mouth by a saleen owner!!


I used to own a GSR, and it couldn't even hang with my GT.

I get these old corporate guys in mustangs and vettes challenging me all the time. If I beat them, they take the next exit. But if I refuse to race, they start acting like I'm a ***** so I always reply with "Why didn't you lease the Z06, or Cobra" It hasn't failed, they turn there head and drive away just like a kill. But nothing was worse than this kid in a dealer mustang and his brand new hat covering the rear left side of his head. He wanted to race me and I said no and told him to take the car back to the showroom, he kept at me and proceeded to do a brake torque, swung his rear end into the next lane and hit truck.

this^^ is funny stuff! swung his rear end into a truck ?! that is some slick driving,ill tell you what(hank hill)-good stuff lucero

Are you going to the Dairy Queen cruise this weekend, waether permitting ? I am sure I have seen this car there before. I gave him a pretty good raping and could have made it worse. I didn't look at the speedometer but I probably took it up to about 130 or so and he was way back there. I let out about 1/4 mile or so before coming up to that sunoco there or whatever it is right near the kmart and that pet store the animal house.

Thanks termi, I didn't want it under those terms though, I'm all about the fair race in terms of the start and not putting someone else in a ditch to win.

I'm willing to bet he was a douche bag far before he bought a Mustang.

I'll post some pics of the dyno done on the as-delivered car on Monday. I'm out and all I have is my laptop to check in on you guys. If my memory serves, it was 470-480 whp and similar torque with a very nice curve, pulling all the way to the factory imposed cut-off at 6000 rpm.

If I would have brake checked this guy he would have rear ended me for sure, he got really close from me just going down into 4th gear and I don't want my car wrecked. The washer fluid on a 91 won't squirt all over his car either, it comes out of little plastic pieces that are clipped onto the windshield wiper arm directly onto the windshield. A lugnut tossed out the window at his windshield wouldn't be a bad idea though.
