today driven home some guy that had to much money for his own good was driven a new mustang GT500 it had a stainless scoop and stainless louvers on it white looked badass i we were stopped at a light 2nd in line and then he swirvers over to pass and i follow him, he punches it and so do i i was right behind him around 3 cars following him you could hear his exhaust roaren and i was keepen up with him (he was prolly pullen away but very little ) up to about 95mph

we get to the next light and he was looken like he was ready to race but he didnt give me a rev or anything so i took off kinda normal then i hear him punch it and then i punched it he pulled ahead like 5 cars and then after that i was about the same and once again i was keepen right up with him i wanted to ask him some questions at the next light but it was green and i had to make my turn


but overall i was EXTREAMLY shocked that i kept up with im the whole time i just wished i had some power adders so i coulda been right next to him or even ahead of him lol just had to share

I can't wait to get my 3.4 on and PCM in. It won't be much of a change but I just wanna see if I can feel the difference.

Well, he may have JUSt gotten it, and he proboly is new to manually shifting, im sure if it were auto, it would have desomated you. No offence, but its a GT500.

I used to beat my buddy in a mustang, then he got good at shifting, then he won races.

x2. I mean, 500hp? I don't think but 2-3 people here would have been able to match him if he knew what he was doing.

I've won a couple races because the driver sucked. One of my first real races was against a WRX STI, and I beat him all the way up to 116mph, where we let off, simply because he didn't know what he was doing.

the GT500 does not put out 500hp...its like 460 something to the crank and a little less to the wheels....
