2 stangs 1-1, 1st good one's w/my new camaro Posted By: ss82er On: 03-15-2010 @ 00:34:45 Reply | Edit Went to Albuquerque the other day, there's stang's crawling around on every street around there. I saw 2 F-Body's and 10 or more Mustang's and a variety of imports in just 1/2 a day. 1st one I had my mother & grandmother with me lol, we were headed to my Aunt's house and they wanted to ride. At a stop light with a long straightaway a newer body style silver v8 mustang with a black stripe pulls beside me. Light turn's green and we ease into it and then comes the hammer from both of us. I hang with him only to about 40ish/or bottom of 2nd gear(I can't remember what speed exactly)and he slowly pulls away when my auto has to shift and then I let off for fear of giving my grams a heartattack, we were only doing 65 or so. Ya that one wasn't much of a race but still fun especially w/my grandmother in there LOL. Damn I want a stall converter. Later in the day I was cruising around ALONE, finally a 99ish red convertable mustang gt pulls up beside me once again, he want's to run em, I can tell. He's got a stick, light turns green and we're off, he hangs kinda close to me but I definately was pulling a bit harder, when I shift into second, he makes up little ground and by the time I got some more RPM's built up it's all over from there, we take it to about 85 and I put at least 2 cars on him. I think his shifting is what killed him, I could see him shiting away, chirping his tires when I was already in another gear pulling. His stick skills got owned by my PCM, I knodded in good fun and we both turned opposite directions at next light, hehe it was fun. I was proud of my ride. I used to own a 96 stanf convertable too and it seemed fast, but damn I didn't know I'd walk one this bad, I must be used to my car. Seems like your vehicles loose the power you 1st felt over time as you get used to them, imo anyways... I feel I have my limits when it comes to racing on the street and would try not to take it to extremes by any means. I can't see myself doing 100 down a city street, waay too scary. I just can't afford the ticket, insurance rates or worst case scenario, hurting the innocent just so you know. -- 94'Z28 A4: CAI | 3:23s | 160T | Crane Coil | Pacesetter LT | Magnaflow | No Emissions BABY! | [ Edited on 04/01/2006 @ 00:47:16 ] Posted By: chrisozanne On: 04-01-2006 @ 20:49:55 Reply | Top | Edit Imo prob should have killed the 99 stang and stuck with the newer body style . But not to bad . althought the newer ones are pretty quick compared to older. nice races -- Slp cai,flowmaster cat back,373 gears,160 stat,tb bypass Best 1/8 mile time 8.89 Posted By: RedScreaminMachine On: 04-02-2006 @ 11:44:24 Reply | Top | Edit Good kill and good loss!

Where in Albq were you running at? When I lived there, the place to run on weekends was over by the Target I cant remember which street that was, it was in the NE part if that helps.
