90's 5.0 Fox body Stang

I don't really post much in this section because I really don't get many chances to have any fun (races) while I'm out and about. My car must be too slow and no one wants to waste their gas on me. :shrug:

On my way home from town getting a bite to eat I cruise up on a early 90's 5.0 'Stang. We are side by side at 50mph cruising along for a min to see if he wanted to play. His car sound alright, it was loud(TD's dumped), like every other 5.0 'Stang. I drop it into 3rd(D) and goose it to see if he will bite but nothing. I do this a few more times and the 3rd time I do this he bites and takes off. He jumps a car immediatly, but at 60mph we were even and when I shut down at 100-110 I was 2 cars ahead of him. This happened twice. Both times he got the jump but result was the same.

I have a basically stock 99 Z/28. FRAM, debaffled stock air lid, K and N filter, no cats, Flowmaster Super 40.

Compared to other kill stories I read on here I know this isn't much to brag about but it got my blood flowing as I hardly ever encounter any races.

Sweet kill!!

I see so many stangs it makes you hate them. Esp if you go to the track its 80% stangs!!

But the only ones to really watch out for is the turbo ones. Those are some mean animals.

It sucks man. I swear anytime me and my girlfriend are going somewhere(we always take my car) I encounter all sorts of '99-up 'Stang GTs and other Z/28's and T/A's and they always want to play BUT my girlfriend HATES when I mess around in my car when she's with me so I usually don't do anything but curse her. :lmao:

When I'm by myself I hardly ever encounter anyone else wanting to have a little fun.

Hmmm....I picked him up down there once in November (just before I retired), but can't remember for sure where it is (Lejune is rather large!). He deploys for the Med/AG this spring (obviously don't want to mention dates or ships). Name is LCPL Cosby. Silly kid has no interest in cars! LOL

The only people wanting to race me are typically high school kids in 4 and 6 cyls. EVery V8 car I encounter, driver nods or waves, and dont want to go.

I pulled up on a Blue GTO with 30 day crash tags today, figuring the guy would want to try his new car, I guess the sound of my exhaust in 3rd gear @70mph made him think otherwise.
