I'm new to this site too and this is only my second post but I read a lot of these boards before I joined. I personally believe these are no bullshit post. I bought my 2001 GT in September and I haven't lost yet. But a lot of that is because mostly all I can get to race are ricers in their "all show no go" cars. I haven't been able to find one newer Camaro or Firebird that has been willing to run me. Now that could be because they've had their asses smoked by a Mustang already and are a little gun shy about getting it again. There is one guy who lives back in my neighborhood with a newer silver rag top Firebird with the Ram Air that likes to rev it at me when I pass him going the other way but ignores me when we're on the same side of the road. I have raced a 89 5.7 Firebird and ate him up off the line and pulled him though every gear. But it was ragged out and probably had some issues. As far as the old people go there was that old dude in the Caddy STS that raced me so that was unexpected but nice

.
I don't go looking for races either but if one pops up I'll take it nor have I gone to the track yet. I'm planning on going so if you guys got any suggestions on how to get it to hook up with the stock tires I'd appreciate it.

Mods (Light):
Flowmaster 40 Series, K&N Filtercharger, PRO 5.0 short throw. Looking into a Diablo chip.
