Id say there was a bit wrong with the black car. A 15.9 NO mustang should ever run that, in good running shape (talking fox body 5.0s here).
Id say add stuff to your car you would have run with them, but with the new cars, its going to be a LOT tougher. The 96 should be in the low 14s high 13s, and the secret car better see 11s (any boosted Mustang I feel should)!
Still a couple of very nice looking cars!

Idk why you are taking offense to it. I am merely posting my opinion on the race. I already commented on how the cars look... I am posting merely because you ran with the Mustang, when the Mustang should have never run that slow (without a bad driver or something wrong). To me thats a fact, and thats all I posted...
I will say good race, and good luck running with the cars they have now!
