Raced a 'Steeda' GT today

Posted By: PongoX11 On: 03-16-2010 @ 15:19:58         Reply | Edit
Saw it coming up, on the freeway and knew it would run >=)

Car was pretty sweet looking, what I assume to be a Steeda body kit (it had chrome steeda badges) lowered, 18" chrome rims--looked nice for a (99-04)stang. Car was stout, it was obviously supercharged.

He came up from behind and got on it as he passed me, I drop down and realed him in and passed. Car was no joke though, It seemed as fast if not faster than Z06s I have raced from that speed. Cool guy though, I let off for upcoming traffic, and he went buy and gave a thumbs up

(First decent race I've had since I put the car back on the road)

Nice one.

Although if you want more frequent challenging races how about slip that blower V8 out and fit a nice stock 3.4 V6.

Not as fast but lots of compition, lol.

Good kill!

It's always nicer to get a good race rather than a race where one or the other gets destroyed.

^ Exactly. I've found that my favorite races are the ones where you're neck and neck or atleast damn close, instead of one car destroying the other.

What does 531 RMHP feel like....I wish I could experience that orgasmic feeling. I think stock we(3.8's) push like 170-180rwhp stock?
