I think the RB powered mustang is kind of cool. I wouldn’t do it, but it’s certainly better than the 289 it comes with. ---

They posted stuff like this from all three movies. I can’t understand how most of the cars are actually slower than their stock counterparts. Maybe it’s because they add too much stuff to the car without actually increasing it’s performance? ---

Why would they go and dyno these cars, let alone run them at a track? Who did this test? I think all the perfomance numbers are made up. ---
