Have you guys ever lost a race

[one]

So may times I have been reading what you guys post here about how your 14 second mustangs( that would be the time you said it ran in the bottom of your post) Beat a new Z28 or vet. Or how your 14.50 second mustang I think was the last one that beat a 12 second truck.( You wrote it not me) I guess the meaning of this post is that I have been racing for a long time now, streets and at the track. Guess what I have even lost some too. There is nothing wrong with writting about this awesome race you had every once in a while that you just happen to loss. We don't win them all. But at least be realistic about your post and times. A 14 second mustang is not beating a 12 second truck unless the truck broke which is possible.

Ok I will start it off

I have gone threw a few mustang now, just love them and love to modify them.
So I was about 19 in a 1989 mustand LX with the normal mods
ran 13.2's on the freeway with my girlfriend in the car. It was about 10 o'clock at night and we were driving to the street races. I see this mid 90's most likely a 94 white Vet, I am just driving and I notice as I am about to pass him two lanes over on the freeway he starts to speed up. I am thinking oh yeah, I got a bite. I throw down to 4th and move a lane closer. I see his car down shift, I throw down two third and tap the gas, he jumps on it and I jump on it. I pull about a car on him and stay there. Power shift to 4th and pull to about a car and a half. After I top out of 4th I get off of it and shift to 5th. He goes by me and is now about 1/4 mile in front of me. We drive a little bit longer and then he slows down, he stays next to me and is tapping his gas. I figure ok he needs another *** wimp'n I would be happy to give to him. So I throw it down again he jumps on it, I move over two lanes because of traffic, I am the car in front of him now, as I look over I see the back end of his car drop down from what was most likely the torque as he the starts to pull on me like I was standing still. I am like what the F? He slows down alittle I pull next to him again, again he walks me. Crap, guessing he had Nitrous and didn't have his bottle open the first time. But still funny as hell didn't expect that one.
