Angry Me vs a 89-93 Ford Taurus

2 days ago I was goin to stop in a red light and I saw a taurus stoped at the light i dont know if it was a 89-93 but i saw the back of the car and it had one of those ricer mufflers. Wen I saw that I started to laught. we were stoped at the light for a wile but wen the light turned green I punched it to the floor he also did and we were side by side but wen we hit like 55 or 60 that guy just took offffffffffffffff i was like I tried to catch up to him but i coulnt I was like so far behind him and I couln't catch up he smoked me so bad Yesterday I was telling my friends about it and they told me that guy has a turbo on it and im like thats why he beat me.

I think it was probably a Taurus SHO which was not a slow car to begin with. Then, from the way he just started pulling on you, it sounds like he was spraying. So you likely lost to a Taurus SHO with NOS. Is your stang stock?

Ya, what kind of stang do you have? I agree with StoplightWarrior, it was probably an SHO (the old model SHOs ran a mid 15, they also have dual exhausts), and the way that he "just started to pull away" he probably sprayed.

You should get a 75 shot of nitrous and some drag radials.. That would put you way down in the 14's

Good luck

I eventually will get some NOS later on. I first need to save up. Because I will not only spend on the NOS I will have to put some forged pistons on it. And also have to get some performance brakes with rotors, so I can slow down. then I know i will kick some a** on the street

dont waste your money on the forged pistons or the upgraded brakes yet.. your a long ways away from needing that.

Oh man. but to tell the truth Taurus' glide at 60+
but I think it was a regular Taurus or GL, with the
rice pipe. It had to have nitrous because you can't fit a Turbo in because there is NO space, plus many other problems. I know because I own a Taurus and was thinking about nitrous for it. I would say come and race me too...
to bad you were not around for me 'skateboard vs. shopping cart' race. Me and a Chevy van. Hahahahaha.....

yeah, but it was short because I had 5 people in the car and one kept saying stop don't get a ticket... thhey said it about three times so I stopped the van kept rollin' though. I had to stop I really did not want a ticket and I know alot of cops were around that area. NO is was not a high power thing about 45-55 to the next light, which the van ran, by the way.
