Crusaders against street racing, Don't waste your key strokes
 

Sunday afternoon, Just out for a cruise, Get to a light 3 lanes each way. A mach 1 like the pic (not sure what year 03 ? ) pulls up , reversed of my colors , Yellow with all black accents. we look at eachother and the light had just changed, so ESB off.

The light changes, and i jump him by a fender were we stayed till i shut it down after 2 redline no lift shifts at about 65mph (in a 50 zone) . I'm sure he would have passed me , But not up until just after shifting into 3rd, which is when reasoning kicked in. He shut it down a 1/2 sec later after geting in front of me and looked over with his mouth open and gave me a thumbs up

At the next lite, he went strait and i made a left. If i was driving the stang and he was driving the SS, I would have beat him that way too, sometimes expierence beats HP. :lol:

I might do this once every month or so when conditions are just right, No i'm not reckless, Anybody else go up against one of these I think it had the 4.6 , Which is what i had in my mark VIII. I know my SS would torch my mark , But i figuered that engine in a stang would be super quick. ?

You on a stock tune?

:thumb::lol::thumb:

those mach1's have around 305hp stock. usually run low 13's off the showroom floor.

yes , For now, in the summer i will get a custom tune to utilize my CAI. With the ram setup it throws an overboost turbo shut down mode, and jumps from 12psi to like 17psi, screams for about 5 min. then the computer realizes theres to much air and shuts down. Debating to get the stage 1 , Or just take it to a local speed shop and dial it to the ram air. The dealer saaid the stage 1 will do the same thing, because it's a tune for the closed air box, Not forced fresh air. So i'd have to get a tune on top of the stage 1, (i know people are doing this) I think i'd rather give it to the speed shop to play with, 1 shot -1 kill :cool: Trifecta is also an option, I just wish they were closer to home.

He was probally 25 , And i think expierence got the best of him, I know those machs are fast. But i bet he dos'nt race another HHR, Just to be safe . :lol::lol:

Hey that's not fair....not all of us youngsters are that inexperienced

Nope , Did'nt say they. I think, I just know my SS better than he knew his stang. :lol: It's not all car, The driver counts too. ;)

I will say that my SS seems to be stronger than when it was new, I'll hit 40,000 miles this week (21 months) . Mechanicly , It seems to be better than ever . :smile:

this is too true, a 10 second car only runs 10's if you can drive it
