Mr. Mustang what were you thinking???

Just thought I would share a little story............Friday night I went to the drag strip just to run my car a couple times. Of course I get paired up with a 96 or so Mustang GT. I wasnt sure how I would do. I knew that I would get him off the line because I have 373 gears. But other than that I only have open exhaust, posi, and a few small mods. I was curious though to see how my 89 Camaro RS 305 5spd would do. Well not only did I spank him off the line, he never caught up............................I ended up beating him by about 5 car lengths or so. The best part of it all was that there were 2 guys in 3rd gen. F bodys at the Finish line jumping up and down as the Mustang was issued his proper beating. Its so great to own an FBODY!!!!!:rockon:

Because this is more of a technical racing forum. I tolerate a few of these type of messages but they should be on the other racing forum.

Don't let it grow into a brag thread or it will get locked.
