Default Re: Vent!!!!!!

It boils down to who has the most money in their car. In the 80's and 90's the choice to build was a small block chevy. Tons of parts, cheap prices, went fast for cheap. The tables are turning now. Now, the 5.0 has a plethora of aftermarket pieces at discount prices.

Since the beginning of time, man has always competed with others. Be it, who can run the fastest, to the first time a motor carriage raced another down a dirt road in the west. I drive an F150 with a 6" lift and 37" tires and people still try to race me in their Chevy and Dodge trucks. I just ignore them. Don't even get me started on those Toyota truck guys!

When I used to drive my stang on the street before it got too radical I had an ambulance try to race me!! People yelling at me light it up! It gets old. If you're sitting at a stoplight and some punk kid pulls up to you in his 72 primered Nova, complete with rod knock and exhaust leak, just roll your eyes at him and shake your head. He'll get the picture.

i hear ya, just because my 95 vert is loud & has 315 35 17 tires on the rear, everybody want's to race me, even other stang's, i always get the ricer fly by, i just laugh, btw you know where i can get some 65 falcon part's ? just wondering, it's my pro street project. but since my gal owns a sharp 89 camaro, i kinda stay neutral on the chevy stuff, i even drive it now & then.

If I get one more ricer fly by...

Da*n Kids, when I was 17 I had a 5.0 and I acted like it... now everyone owns a civic ex with a bloody coffee can muffler. (Yes I had one for daily driving in between stangs til I figured out after 6 months I was going to beat up the next kid that tried to race me!) Now I'm 26 and I give kids a lot of room- until the fly by. That might get you embarrassed... especially on prom night kiddies.

Chevy isn't that bad if you like to work on cars... they will keep you busy. You can even drive your mustang over to help your friends work on their chevys... if you hang around people like that

Jester, you're still da man in my book brother!
