huh, nice job. Could the other person drive? But still 17 pounds should make up for that. Makes me wonder what damage my car can do. I havent raced yet either.

this guy races 3 times a week, i havent went to race for almost a year, and im not exagerating either, last winter is when my turbo went on, so its been almost a year and i had never raced it because of the problem with the boost dieing off, so after my test pipe , ic pipe and intercoler installation it was fixed, me friend had the funniest look on his face, pure amazement, he had just burned a mustang gt on thursday night and was constantly talking ----. and then he was like "there "has" to be something wrong with my car...it feels slower today"

Cars always "feel slower" after getting smacked by a honda !! hehe..

I rode in my friends 5.0 fox body mustang yesterday, and OMG that thing feels like it runs mid-12's, but its nothing special and even he says he'd be happy with high 13's... GS-T are just like my friends stang. Feels extremly fast, but can't put the times up like it "feels like it should".

Not to take anything away from DSMs, or fox body stangs.
