killed a fellow stang, badly!

fiveohpatrol · 09-08-2001, 01:10 AM

i had my first street race on my nittos tonight and they worked pretty well
i was driving down the main road in town and was slowing to a light and saw a few stangs parked and some guys talking, one of them yelled they wanted to race so i pulled over and talked to them for a few, they didnt know a whole lot about stangs but they were pretty cool, this guy thought his 87-93lx hatch was a 86 1/2 ? i then asked if he converted the front end and tail lights, and he said no thats all stock, i just laughed to myself and shrugged it off, we went down to a road that ends up being about 1/4 mile with plenty of road to slow down, also no telephone poles or trees on the sides of the roads
anyway, first run his buddy jumps out and yells 1,2,3 go and i spin fairly bad in 1st then go, i got him by about 4-5 carlengths at the end at about 100mph, second race was pretty much the same
we stopped and talked afterwards, he actually was really cool about losing so bad, not to mention that he told me he had NEVER been beaten on the street before, i thought that was cool that i did it

just thought i'd share my joy with all of ya

I have a 97 white gt convertible and I am following a 92 white 5.0 convertible. We cruise through a couple of green lights then one in the distance turns red. We haul *** to catch it and exchange info. Nice guy. He doesnt any grip and I just haul some serious *** . Afterward be offered the standard 'i couldnt get any traction' excuse. Not my problem. 5.0 v 4.6 showdown. It was fun

You should be ashamed of yourself! Nice kill - even though it was one of your own

Nice, fiveohpatrol. Sounds like good recreation to me.
I hope you educated the young stanger...

(not by just wippin his butt either

).

...wasn't gonna post this, but since the topic is already here...

Today, I was riding behind this broke down '87-'88 GT and after a few minutes of this, knew that there was no way I'd feel good about racing a car in such condition so I get beside it to get around it (me in the right lane) and this motorcycle in front of me slows down to make a right turn WITHOUT SIGNALING!!

(guess he thought I was telepathic) so after he turns I get down on it HARD as if to say "yeah, screw you buddy".

The trashy mustang was way ahead now, but when I got down hard on the accelerator, this nice looking '91-93 GT flys up beside me (sounded and looked good too). I could tell it was pretty much stock though + aftermarket mufflers, but he really wanted to go so...

...coming upon a red light, we're both in left lane, he in front and me directly behind him (other lanes occupied). Light turns green we both launch hard (no spinning) and I fly pass him b4 even reaching 3rd. No challenge. So instead of going his way (which was out of my way) I turn left, smile and wave at the next exit.

Haven't had a race in a few weeks so felt good.

--Dangit, I can't tell a short/succinct race story for nothing.

uhh younger stanger? actually he looked to be in his mid to high 20's and im 19 so it has nothing to do with age, age doesnt always equal experience and knowledge, i know plenty of older guys that have no clue what they are talking about as well
check out 5.0Mustang's April 2000 issue pg. 8-9 for more of my thoughts on this

One can be 100 years old and be a "young stanger" while another can be 17 and be an "elder stanger". Catch my drift?

...'86 1/2 Mustang? He was a young stanger, regardless of physical age.
