Another Pony Falls Prey to the TA

As I was going down University (a quite busy street in Little Rock), there's a VERY loud car, I roll up on it, it turns out the be a black Mustang GT. VERY loud. 5-spd because you heard it downshift, and rolled backwards at the light, anywho. I was sitting behind him turning onto cantrell, and threw him a rev, he, of course, reved back, and when the light turned, he turned left and mashed it, when he had about 2 lengths on me already from turning ahead of me, I mashed it and we ran up to 90 (when I let off). At that time....3 lengths ahead of him Some old cocky white guy, but my buggy definately impressed me last night. Just thought I might share.

12.7 in the quarter, estimated of course. It seems that the 1000ft is EXACTLY 2 seconds shy of the 1/4 time. the stang was the one right before the new 05's

Yea, Good Kill. But then again, i'm sure if your running 12.7s, you get a lot of that. lol. you know something. There's always been something about the ram air trans ams, that I never wanted to run one. I've never been worried about Camaros, vettes, ect....., but just never too sure about those cars since I see so few of them. . lol.

people most of the time don't buy the Ram Air hood for performance, considering that the Fast Toys Ram Air kit and other kits pulling air from underneath the car have been proven much more effective than the standard Ram Air that comes with the Ram Air hood, they normally buy the hood for the look of it. It' looks MUCH better than that flat piece of garbage they put on there.
