Well I cleaned the car up tonight after work. Had it looking really good. cruised around for about 15 minutes before I came home, and on my way back, a black SVT comes up behind me. He passes me, and I think, he has a black SVT, I have a black SVT, we should race  So I get in the front of this pack and he follows me. We get a light, and I didn't want to just do it off the line because I don't like tires squeeling with people around. So we get up to about 15 and we both hit it. We are dead even all the way up to 85-90 mph. That is when he started to pull on me about a fender. We get up to the next light and I say "tell me you weren't just getting on that". He says "Yeah I was gettin on it". I guess I wasn't too disappointed though........................ seaming as how it was a Lightning

I was joking about the gen I, but FYI 351HO (240hpish IIRC) mid/low 15s in the 1/4.

Hahaa... I can always count on you to chime in there Ryan... It was a Gen 2... I believe it was a 99... I don't think he had the Altezza's on there... It was lowered so I don't know if he had any other mods, or if he swapped the fugly altezza's for plain tail lights... It was pretty fun though that's for sure... Im getting the shift cable put in on monday, and then Im gonna put my shifter in after that. Then my suspension will be in next week so I'll put that on possibly the following weekend... Then I'll take it to the track to win my $50

Damn Mark, you scared me for a second. Way to build up suspense. I was gonna' say, I know your car isn't slow. My butt dyno told me last weekend just how fast it is. Now I'm going to have to do something to keep up. Hmmmm........
