Got Another Good Kill!!!
the other day on my lunchbreak i was driving back up hwy 74 going back to work and i was kinda playing with this white 02 (est) mustang gt. well i followed him onto Interstate 77 and raced him for a minute then i got off and headed back towards my job. as i was merging back onto the hwy here goes this bright yellow and black mustang go flying by, so of course i chased him down. it was the same bodystyle (02-03?), yellow on the bottom and black on the top (hood, trunk, roof etc) it looked gay, chrome wheels blah blah blah. well i came up from behind pretty quick and then i slowly came around him and i was riding beside him and i saw him look at me like "what the hell does this LT1 want", oh yeah forgot to say, it was a SALEEN, or at least he had the full body kit, wheels, and the S281 badges on the side. well i kinda threw my hands up at him to entice him and i heard him drop it down a gear so i floored it. i was in 3rd gear when i stomped it and by the top of 3rd i had a car length in between us. then i quit because i just got a ticket a few weeks ago. i was so friggin excited that i rolled the window down and laughed and pointed at him....
that was so much fun

Re: Got Another Good Kill!!!
u know what thats hella funny cuz i used to have a 90 5.0 modded pretty damn fast (not as fast as my new LT1) but i raced a 00-02 saleen with all the badges and body kit blah blah blah and beat him, and i know those things r hella fast so it makes me wonder... maybe they were fronting and it was a 6 with saleen badges or they just cant drive... what do those things run anyways?

Good, good kill. I see these stangs all over the place in boston. Very few maros. Seeing a maro is like seeing and ferrari were i live. I wanna race one stang soo damn bad, but nobody bites. It was always like that when i went fishing too.

Re: Got Another Good Kill!!!

Pretty sad. What hell is a Saleen anyway? Is it just a Mustang GT with SC?

Think of Saleen as a way weaker Cobra, and you're basicly on the right path there. As he is an actual guy, if you didnt know, just like Carroll Shelby.

Yeah, he's the guy that makes the Saleen S7. You know chevy has some genuises in the office/factory cuz whoever came out with the LT1/LS1 needs a noble peace prize, seriously.

Yeah, but what do you expect? Ford makes a big deal out of little things, like their Mustang Cobra SVT R, its a long ass name and all, but I forgot which magazine did a run between the Corvette and that stang, and the Vette still won, except with the braking distance. Its pretty funny too because the Stang has no A/C and all they did was put lightweight stuff on it, everything manual and just threw on a big engine, while the Vette still has A/C and everything electronic. Vette>Stang
