I was out for a cruise the other night and ended up behind a SHO. I could see and hear that it had aftermarket exhaust on it, looked like flowmaster (poor guy). We turned and ended up on a two lane street side by side at a light. This was a high traffic area with many lights and cops for sure (many donut shops), so it really wasn't the time or place at all. Honestly, I really didn't want to go but there is NO WAY I was going to let that ford get ahead of me and think he took me. So the light goes green and I feather it out of the whole not even trying and get a car on him (thank you 4.10's). I could hear that he was going all out and I was only into my throttle about 1/3 the whole way lol! I stayed a car length ahead all the way to about 65 where we both let off. I could have crushed him bad! Kinda a cheezey race but oh well, still stayed out front haha! What sucks is that a 89ish GT convertible (sounded heavy with a big wing) was behind us the whole way and wanted some action as well! I turned off and was hoping he would come with me on another road where we could have got it on forsure but he went with the SHO. Wise choice!

 

you sould of mashed the pedal to the floor and left his *** in a cloud of burnt rubber

 

I know but it was too risky of an area. would have liked to get it on with that mustang!

Good thing you went though, nothing worse then people thinking you lost to a taurus.

 

Not just a Taurus, and SHO. They deserve respect for what they are and can be made very fast!

 

i hung with one of the newer sho's on the freeway one time... he was bone stock but I could hear him going all out.... i guess the bubble ones aren't too fast since i kept up with him in my 3.1...

 

The newer ones are quick to. My buddys 97 ran a 14.9 stcok. Not bad for a four door sedan.

 

Really, what track, I see your in CT... I think an older MTX could hit a high 14 but didnt know the newer ones could!

 

Englishtown NJ. He iced the intake. Took out the spare tire and the car did have a k&n air filter besides that it was stcok.

 

I didn't even try! If I did, he would have needed binoculars to see my plates.
