an everyday driver in ANY car can expect to run anywhere between .2-.3 slower than what the car is stated it will run in the quarter mile…unless you just dont give a fuck about the drivetrain and romp on it like the testers do… ---

you didnt know that when you buy a mustang and put an exhaust on thats one of the requirements? rev at anyone and anything thats a potential threat to taking down the mustang glory? ive seen a dude in a stang revving at a parked vette \<–fucking hilarious to watch…like the vette owner is gonna come running out after hearing the glorious exhaust notes from the stang and automatically run him… its like the animals do in the wild…they growl at potential threats to say “BACK THE FUCK OFF MOTHER FUCKER! I RUN DEEZ STREETZ!” and yes d-bags suck ---

im sure he just sucked at driving and couldnt figure out the gas/clutch/brake combination he had…i doubt he was revving at you and your grandma… unless of course your grandma’s a cougar?
