Default Mustang 5.0 kill

I thought that there was no chance my 4.8L with very few mods could take the stang. He had a person in the back and one on the passanger side. He gave me a car the first time. I ended up beating him pretty bad. He complained about "hooking up". So we did it again head up. I pulled him out of the hole, but I figured he would leave me from there on. I couldn't believe his second to third was so weak. I pulled at least a car on him. When we hit third he started to pull on me, but hell it was already over. He couldn't believe he had just had his butt handed to him by a truck. He hyped his motor up so much, talking about his forged pistons, heads, etc. Could have been a fluke, but hey, a kill is a kill(especially a freakin ford).My girlfriend snapped a few pics of the race,and as soon as they get developed, I'll post the victory.

I think the whole setup is pretty good. I noticed a pretty good increase with the mit. Really made the spacer start screaming, though. I've been accused of running a sc more than a few times. If you like the whine of the spacer, it is definately worth the money.

Thought I would add another kill to my list. I went out to our race road and saw an old (80s model)Ford stepside. The guy driving it was kinda "dirty south" if ya know what I mean. The truck was painted purple with some walmart style wheels. He kept building his motor up(351 cleveland). I couldn't take it anymore, so I asked for a run. Killed him out of the hole and pulled the whole way. Afterward, he complained about not being able to hook up, so I gave him a run from 30mph. Beat him worse than the first time. His next excuse was my favorite"man, my truck isn't running right." Why didn't he say that before the two races? Some people will never learn! I love beating up on old big blocks! Ended the night by getting me my *** handed to me by a fellow club member in his 99 WS6. But his day will come.

Sounds good, man. After we race, we can go gamble and a little bit. I'm never scared to lose, I just don't want to lose to anything but a bowtie. Do you know where Cleveland is? If youre ever down, let me know.
