05+ Mustang GT kill?

**Eric1987** · 10-08-2008, 09:17 AM

Thanks its my first REAL race in my Z28 besides some random old man in a harley who wouldnt tell me he wanted to race until he chirped his tires off the line. That faggot then told me after he only had a car length the whole time. Not gaining at all. He said...."See you cant fuck with a Harley". I said dude I didnt even take off traction control!

The Front/Rear adjustable diff is a joke. My friend has one, he said he couldn't notice a difference either way (it only can split 60/40 anyway) so he just leaves it in the middle so the car can decide where to proportion the power.

Not a fan of STI's, and I can't say I'd ever, for any reason, consider buying one over a new Camaro. There's just no comparison, its a 4 cylinder boy racer riceburner vs. a legendary American icon with a V8. Same, price, same fuel economy, you've got to be kidding yourself to choose an STi over the new Camaro.

I wish I could find an F-body to race.... Had 1 little run-in with a WS6 wasnt all that close.

Haha I had a toyota tacoma try to race me today. He tried to pass me up but of course he never even reached me before I put like 2 cars on him in 2 seconds. I was goading him on a couple blocks previous but he wouldnt bite. Then I got in front of him and he flashed his lights. A couple seconds later I saw him get in the lane to the right of me. He then proceded to attempt to pass me. I dropped it into second at about 40 and took it up to 80 and let off. I had atleast 3 cars on him by then.

2%? I dunno about you but not many cars can match 350 horsepower. I've only seen maybe about 1 car besides corvettes that could take me. It was a vert cobra.

Damn Eric. You work nights or you suffer from insomnia? Like the last 3 days. You've been on till at least like 4am. No biggie. My sleep schedule has been really messed up with surgery so I've been up really late as well.

As for me I've got all types of exotics I have to watch out for. Sux too. 365 to the wheels and I still have to watch my ass who I try and mess with.

**Eric1987** · 10-10-2008, 07:31 AM

Damn that sucks for you. If I had that much to the wheels I wouldnt of wasted my time with the mustang. But yeah I usually stay up till 2am. I'm in california time difference.

Ya, a stock Mustang GT won't give you too much trouble. Thier gearing helps them out of the hole, but after first gear they really tend to slow down. Nice kill.
