in my little Pa. town its kinda split down the middle ...mustangs are really popular here..still see tons of them..most of em owned by guys in mid 30s but there are a few kids with mustangs mostly foxes .there are alot of imports some of em are pretty fast but most of em are status symbles.it seems to be common knowlege who's fast though.most kids respect the power in the big v8 but like status that comes with tiny tires and shopping cart wings. but not all the kids.i bought my car off a 19 year old who is in the process af building a capprice police cruiser anto a rod and i brought a set of tailpipes of a young kid who is driving an old v8 falcon.most of the kids i've met on the cruising strip around here are actually pretty cool ...thats how i got my handle ...when im asked what'll it do i tell them im just an old guy with a mustang,its not really that fast.the'll usually laugh because they know the old v8s will still compete.most of em wont try to play when there next to me because they dont want to run the risk of getting smoked in front of there friends....all in all its about half n half around here with the young kids.half of em drive old muscle half of em drive imports.half of em are rich kid snobs (wont give you time of day and think there the **** because the have a shift light and a wing)and half of them are cool(will come up and ask about mods and want you to do a burn out)so its all good...............................p.sim not really that old (28)
