True that, it's insane over here I haven't met a single Mustang driver that didnt want to race lol. Not one! I remember a random stang'er from the street once came close to me just to ask me if I didn't mind driving to some road to have a few runs.. wtf lol

I live out in eastern Long Island, NY, plenty of spoiled rich brats driving fancy cars and empty streets. For those of you who may be familiar with Suffolk County, I also live about 5 minutes from the infamous Deer Park Avenue though I'm sure it's now owned by cops. All the same, I'll admit I had 1 run at 2am with an e92 M3 I couldn't say no but I try to drive sane and safe 99.9% of the time. Hell I have a camry as a daily driver just to keep the urge down.

Maybe it's the traffic here, but getting challenged at lights is not an issue.

I have grown up knowing both sides, my father loves American muscle but also has owned two Z cars in his life (280 & 300). I took my time deciding for myself on what I want currently and made my choice.
I love American muscle for its fast straight line speeds and unique style, but I just feel the cars have gotten stuck in their own time. The rest of the world is starting to move forward and they are holding onto older ideas or concepts.

Matt and I had the same thing happen to us while I was at the shop getting my exhaust put on. I guess the guy saw Matts Nismo there and stopped by and asked us if we wanted run against a Cobra, so I said sure, then he says oh yea it has 900 hp. We were like what a dumb fu#k, asking for a stock Z to run a 900 hp Cobra. Dude was a tard. Then he gets on his phone and calls the guy with the Cobra and says he has a couple of guys interested in his car. It still makes me laugh when I think about it, the dude was a toal tard and looked like it too.

wow, I can understand volunteering my own car but volunteering someone else's car and having to call them up? I'll pass, still in a perfect environment I'd race the cobra in the mountains. No American car wants to race on anything but a 100% straight line, their gobbles of torque do little when the slightest bends are introduced, I would know I used to be the dumb mustang letting off in those situations.

These are stories that get me. People want to "run," but wait...they need to call their friend to get their friends car. Now I know yours was a bit different, but I have had people start talking sh1t and want to go, I finally say fine where is your X brand car (mustang, evo, sti, etc.)...."Oh, well it is not my car but let me call my friend who owns it."

I should have said yes and when I go to the place to race I show up on a bicycle and say lets go. Thats about how stupid the guy was thinking anyone would feel good about their 900hp car beating a 300 hp stock car.
