Default i hate to admit it but i was beaten tonight by a stang

some of the southern crew know the car but it's a 02 i think mustang gt with a vortech s/c. it has gears and some other boltons but we ran tonight and he got the better part of the mutt.

i do have vid but not available just yet

race went like this, we lined up after doing burnouts and then the flag man did the motion to go and i went. mustang sat. flagger was over zelous.

next run we both launched. i had a little tire spin but he got me form the 60 foot on. i calculate it to be about a 5 car length victory or so for him. maybe a few more.

this is all i had on motor. we have another race lined up for tomorrow night when my nitrous kit is back on the truck to see the outcome. i am sure it will be different.

if you watch the slowprovsgoshawk23 race vid, it looks about like that but a little worse.

I dont give a **** what others say. You on motor only being pulled about 5 car lengths by a Supercharged Mustang isnt anything to be ashamed of. Do you know what all other mods he had?

yeah you N/A vs a s/c'd Stang... outcome not so bad.
there's a couple of 03-04 Cobras around here that are absolutely nasty, I have no desire to get embarassed by one of them.

For those wondering......he's beat this mustang before, so this makes it so much worse. Better stay out of the Delta, we have alot of mustangs here.
