it was a 3-lane road and when the light turned green... me in my little IROC and my bro in the black LX took our friend in the white LX till about 30mph were the white car just chewed us both up... but i new that was gonna happen but i didn't expect my car to be dead even with me bro in his 92LX (black) till 100mph when we got off... the white 89 LX was long gone by then but i was glad i only saw one set of tail lights...

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!

Street racing has to do with the track for the fact that we know what your car ran, and any 5.0 Mustang should beat that. Also for the lightweight rear, as long as the driver realizes the gas isnt an on and off switch, he should be able to launch it pretty good (I know a little about this matter).

Im not ******* on you or your car, as Im sure your happy you ran with him, but Im talking more or less why the outcome was what it was...

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!
