Running errands last night, just out of the car wash so I'm lookin' good Saw a Rustang take a left just in front of me, trying to show off and getting sideways. I pulled around the corner and slipped up next to him at the next light, just idled up with no drama. There were several cars behind us but we were first at the light. Punk kid looked over at me and grinned that nasty leer. spiked hair, sleeveless tee shirt, real attitude - "I'm so BAAAD!" I nodded at him, light turned, he tore off, I rolled out slow and waited until I could see his whole rear bumper. Then I put the smack down on him - went by in about thirty feet, just blew his doors off. Coasting up to the next light, I waited until he was close and pulled it into first and hammered it - just to see how high I could raise the front end. He pulled up next to me and asked me twice "What have you got in that thing!". I told him "It's just an old Buick". There were more cars in front of us, and I took it easy, letting him pull away with traffic. About then a big ol' Suburban pulled up next to me with a whole family in it - Dad, Mom, passel of kids. Mom was going APE, screaming, cheering, thumbs up - not an old bat either, one of these MILF types. All I can figure is that she was pissed at the little rustang boy for his shenanigans. I spose it could be that I'm really sexy too...:gt:
Cool story. Wish I had some recent storys to tell. Too bad you could not show him under the hood at a gas station. See its just an old Buick motor back when they built them to run. At least he knows now that it does not have to be a Mustang or Camaro to be a quick street car.
I love it!!! I was at the track the other friday to test and tune and at the starting line was the rustang contintient and I idled quietly up to the warm up box, and they all said about the mustang "check out the old car get beat by the GT " (whatever) I ripped a 1.46 60 footer and went 1022 @ 132 and they said to each other (my friend was standing there) "HOLY CRAP DID YOU SEE THAT!!!" I just about died I love those life lessons to the muttstang guys!!
