Smile got an ls1 last night.

im only posting this hoping that maybe he is a member. anyways, i was driving and ran into a silver t/a, maybe 99+? looked stock other than rims (it was dark). we went from about 60 or so from 4th which is kinda high for me. we were even for a moment but then i started to pull kinda hard. i shut down at like 120mph with a good number of cars on him. his car looked really good and he seemed cool. if your reading this dude, had fun. time to get some mods, lol..

Nice kill, but were you really in FOURTH at 60mph???? I'm pretty sure 2nd would have suited you just fine (although it wouldn't even have been a race at that point, haha). Sweet.

Why not? They read about us to learn and post kill stories for us to read, and I do the same thing on some of the Mustang forums. Most people are very cool about it. Of course, there are always the few scumbags that whine like little bitches about a "Camaro on the SVT site" or a "Stang on the LSX site", but they aren't the majority. Most people respect the hobby and the sport and love it enough to read about ANY cars and races, regardless of make or model.

Nonsense, a convetible can't be made fast...

Awesome kill! That's a nice ride you got there!

I second the 4th gear start comment though. At 60 mph I start in 2nd and I have 4.10 gears. Why'd you go from 4th?

Yes. Always gotta know what you could be getting yourself into with an opponent. Plus, many of us have had f-bodies in the past and still enjoy following their progress.

Ken if you keep bringing your blue oval friends we're going to have to change the name of the website to something with ford in the name...you guys are taking over the forums...it's cool though...nothing like a lil mustang vs camaro ford vs chevy rivalry.

I think we would all miss the rivalry and the boards would be very boring.

We have our fair share of fbod dudes stirring the pot on our sites as well...and welcomed as it is here.

convertibles cant be made fast? lol, they can be made fast, but its alot more work. special frame ties and always worrying on launch if your car will turn like a pretzel is a concern, but cant be made fast? not true lol.
yellow convertible cobra around here thats just plain mean.

by the way, good kill man. mustangs on this website? why not. no matter the preference, were all here to talk about our cars, who cares what it is. like stated before, rivalry is the essence of conversation on here lol
