Great race with fellow mustangworks memeber!

Well I find out another forum memeber off the board is close and wants to meet up. We agree to meet somewhere I arived first and wait then I see it a beautiful jalopeno red 86 GT come roaring in. We split some cheese stix and some awesome street racing stories. So we start to talk about our cars I had a near stock 91 LX coupe with exhaust, he said the same but then he said something that struck fear into me he had GEARS! So we bs for a while then we head out to race, we must have raced 5-6 times easy and he would stick with me out of the whole and then I would go by him slowly. He and I were both shocked, he took me for a ride in his car I was amazed by the gears and shifter (mine was stock) I could not believe it so impressed I ordered gears the next week.

its hard to beleive but this race took place close to 7 years ago and I can still remember it like yesterday.

My 91 LX ended up being a 500+rwhp supercharged beast later parted out and sold

The 86 Gt is long gone never reaching more then bolt-on status being replace by a LS1 but eventaly back to a 03 GT

The other mustangworks guy was ezridn (Mark) we have since raced each other probably a 100 times easy and shared 1,000's of stories, we have each moved states away, we still visit each other often and still call each other weekly.

Sometimes I go back to that road and do a quick blast just for old times sakes....

That being said we have always one upped each other and for the last year or so he has had me with a 11.9X in his LS1 (I never ran my LX at a 1/4 after it got wicked).

Well Tonight I took back the crown with a 11.59@121!

wholly crap Jeff, talk about a jump in ET! Congrats on the 11, and the 11.5 at that!

Bring that beast up to Muncie on saturday and race against another MW member that you have a few times in the past. You never know, you might pair up against me on my first 10second pass. How cool would that be?

hope to see ya there!

Yeah Angy and I are gonna come up on saturday. I hope to see you get your first 10 second pass. I was still on low boost and I just might swap to a higher boost level for saturday. I also might try to take some weight out (spare tire and what not) and power shift and see if I can't dive deep into the 11's.

Its amazing what a good burnout and some better driving can do my 1/8 was a 7.502!
