Boss Called my car a POS
Ok When I work I always park my across the very last 2 spots in the parking lot. Its never like those spots get used or anything. Anyways, one day my boss is in a pissy mood and he's kinda a dick and he says
"see that piece of shit there across two spots move it before I tow it" needless to say I was kinda pissed (and didn't move it) and I said that piece of shit is faster than your mach 1 ( he has an all original 1971 mustang mach 1). Well he got REAAAALLLLY mad that I just trashed his love of the life and got all defensive saying he'll race me for slips. Well Im not willing to risk my car on a missed shift but I was willing to put 200 on it. He knows very little about modern cars and had no idea even what that shiny thing in my grill was . Well he was so confident (aftrer asking what displacement my engine is 2l he said he'll even give me 2 car lengths. So what do you guys think? Think I will take him>? his car is a 351 HP Anyone got any ideas on 1/4 times for those cars/ Just want to know if I fucked up or I am looking at money for a new exhaust!!PLEASE PLEASE tell me the honest truth. I know his car is fast but It hasn't been raced ever and the parts are all almost 40 years old I bet he spins a bearing or something ( WHICH I WOULD LOVE) WIN BY DQ the two sweetest words in the english language!

Re: Boss Called my car a POS
HAHA! Where do you live, I'll stop by and show him a "POS" thats not even 1/2 as nice as your car and I'll race for slips. Its all stock, I swear. I'll even give him a 2 bus lengths.
That mustang would probably run a low 14. Maybe a high 13 if he nows how to drive. You have the mods to kick his ass, just hurry up and get your car tuned at about 22-24psi and you'll blow by him easily. If your car is tuned, just be a smart ass and tell him he can have 2 car lengths. |

Re: Boss Called my car a POS
I would be VERY surprised if he runs quicker than a high 14. The Mach1 was never very fast. They didn't calculate horsepower the same back then either so that 350hp he is bragging about is way less in real life. If it is all original, then you will take him EASY. Do you get good traction with those short side walled tires? If you do you will murder him off the line, because I bet that pig he is driving weighs 3800lbs at least and he is not coming off the line very quick.

Re: Boss Called my car a POS
OK well I'm definitly going to film the race (if he lets me some people get antsy around cameras). The race is scheduled for the 30th I think its a wednesday. I don't know why he wants to race on a wednesday but he was adament about it. I have my car DD set at 15 psi and it runs 13.5. I'm not even sure I should start changing boost levels before the race because the 15 PSI should be enough any thoughts? I've never had my car professionally tuned, where do you get that done?

Re: Boss Called my car a POS
I cant imagine one of those old original cars beating your EvoIII DSM. My dads old race car stripped, gutted, and tube framed weighed in at 3800 with him in it. Grant they had some weight added for distribution and minimum weight purposes, but it wasnt that much. I would guess that tub to be over 4000. You should walk him like a dog man. I would take the two lengths and act like you are nervous. Then fuckin whip out the 14 inch DSM fury and get to work on his old, wrinkly "American Muscle."
Be relentless. This reminds me of the time some fat indian wanted to box. He is 16, maybe 5'10" and pretty fat, I'd say like 280 or so. He walks around work acting all tough shit and one day I kinda popped off on him. He askes me if I wanted to box to settle it. I said sure, but I was a little scared because if he really had that big of a mouth, I figured he would be able to back it up. He wanted to put $100 on it and he was going to use gloves and I could go bareknuckle. Turns out, he cant even bench 150. I just laughed at him. I am quite a few inches taller, I bench a tad over 200. I am bigger, stronger, quicker, and a much harder fitting surface. He left McDonalds after that day. What a fuckin sandbox.

![]() I had a 70 GTO, and that thing could move. You never know how fast that mustang will move untill you race. If its restored to stock, you should be fine, but modding a V8 is cheep and simple. Anyway, last time I raced, I beat a Turbo DSM....with my dads Solara!
