Stanger lost to the dark side......the darkest side.

[Power]

The only consolation I can give myself is that my buddy was not a true Ford guy.

My buddy that had a 65 coupe until recently has fallen prey to the darkest side. He has purchased a "high performance" Nissan Sentra and is busy adding the appropriate stickers and coffee can. To make matters worse he now is telling me he is going to give it to his wife and he is going to buy a 2002 Nissan Altima. His reasoning is that the Altima will be able to match up against the Mustang GT stock for stock. He has also told me the obligatory stories of american V8 muscle cars getting their heart broken by 4 and 6 cyl imports down at the track. I've heard the necessary peak horse in 4 cyl VS peak horse in 8 cyl logic and he stands by it. Its quite sad for me because he was the one that helped me get mine and we were building them up together.

Oh yeah, his Nissan Altima he is buying is "guaranteed" to be down in the low 12's when he is done with it.

Sad sad day. Glad I still have all you folks here on the board.
