Another modded 5.0 bites the dust

On my way back from my launch break yesterday, a Red GT pulls up behind me at a light headed onto the main road. When the light turned green, I pulled out into the left lane and waited for him to catch up. When he did, we both gunned it and I instantly put several car lengths on him and figured this race wasn't worth my time. When we stopped at the next light, he asked me what I had done to mine and I told him and asked him, but all he would tell me was "a couple things." I'm figuring he had flowmasters and a K&N

Good kill!I bet when people pull up next to you they don't expect that an old rustang (j/k) can run 12s. Was it the 99+ GT? Not that it would matter, just curious.

5.0 says '95 or older, I don't think people expect 12 second mustangs when they pull up next to anything made in the last 30 years...

And where is the 3rd Gen content here. I must lock this. Oh wait I'm not a mod.

Least you were picking on your own kind, instead of my car.

Don't worry about what kind of RPM I'm turning while I'm getting there. Just worry about what my tail lights look like from a distance
