Back in my school, someone had a Vega with a 350 in it. That thing was fast. Only good for going straight.

The person that hung the name "Mustang" on that abomination should be sentenced to drive an AMC Pacer in the Tournament of Roses parade for the rest of his life. BJ

the other day i raced a mustang, big mistake....I thought it was a slow one which would be an easy win....Well when i pulled next to it, my 2 10w7's i pushed them loud, my xenons were on, and he knew that I wanted to race him to the next light...well i cranked down my stereo, and he revs his engine...I hear it and Im like ****, I messed with the wrong person today lol.

Anyways the light turns green I forget to take the 'stc' off and that inhibits my full acceleration so he beats me. At the next light I take it off, give it full throttle and we're neck and neck, he's got the lead by a foot(the front end of his car was just infront of mine) and as soon as we hit second gear, by the time I hit second gear, My car slows down accelerating and his takes off.... By the time I get to 60 I think he's at 80, and he's like 50 ft infront of me now lol....he just had a lot more hp then me, although im not sure...prob is a lot lighter of a car.

T6 dissappointed me there... for some reason, as soon as you hit second gear and your using your turbo it seems to die down between like 40-60, then picks up a lot of power between 60-80 mph. it needs like a midcharger for 40-60mph lol....And when I took the STC off, my wheels were squeeling lmao...

I'm 18 going to be 19 and graduated out of high school by this summer. Right now I have a truck which is cool to have and all but I would like to get a 850T for luxury, speed and gas milage.

I've just started my life with cars this year(in september) and plan on building up a mustang, starting with the engine here soon. Nothing will beat it....
