Vette vs. stang

Somebody shoot me if I ever spend that much on a car and don't drive it like I hate it.

You hit the nail right on the head blue00gt.

I have raced 2 Vettes. Driver in the first one ('96) was in his early 20s and was real cool about the race-- even though I won (w/ 3.27s out back). 2nd Vette ('93) I raced, driver was in his mid 40s. He just kept on driving-- I lost that one ( w/ 2.73s out back w/ NO positraction).

I just usually get up next to more Mustangs than other cars. Anyway, I'd rather keep it in the family, b/c there's usually less hostility.
