I saw this completely riced out Eclipse last night… he was going approx 40mph in the LEFT LANE down central from wolf rd. all the way to schenectady. Fucking idiot. It had altezzas, bodykit, HID’s… kid had a mean gangster lean and hat cocked to the side. It was bright yellow. I thought it was 2001 all over again, as the car was STRAIGHT out of the FnF movie.

It is prolly the kid I raced on the thruway a while back. It did sound nice, but didnt move. I caught him on i90 towards the 24 tolls. rolled on him prior to the tolls. both ran from the dig after the tolls, then one more time from 65… walked him each time. then a nice brand new vette must have watched us and ran me. civic boy must have pooped him self and pulled over becasue he wasnt anywhere to be seen.

Yes the vette beat me. :banghead

^haha.

I raced a Mustang GT last night from 40. I only did it because the guy pulled into Hess like he was a BADASS, ie. revving the motor, got out of the car and walked in the store staring back at the car. He came out as I was finishing pumping gas, and looked at me and smirked. I don’t know what he was laughing at, I was in my work clothes, my fly was up, and I was sober. Anyway, he gets in the Mustang, revs the SHIT out of it, and takes off spinning the tires and then goes 30mph down central.

I got in the left lane to pass him, doing about 50 in 5th, and he just floors it. So I downshifted to 2nd and walked by him. It was amusing.

It wasn’t a new stang btw, prolly mid-late 90’s. It was green and was a total piece. Although it didn’t sound half bad.

You better reassure yourself then. Besides, those years of 'stangs are turds, especially stock (or close to) ones.

'96-'98 were fairly slow with the non PI 4.6. A head and cam swap makes them just as good as a '99-'04 though and they look alot better than the '99-'04’s.
