No nitrous, on stock tires, and in the summer heat of SE Virginia!

Car only had 225 HP stock and was so easy and fairly inexpensive to squeeze extra horsepower out of it. OK, so the LX was a little lighter than the GT. You will rarely run into any of these Mustangs on the street that are stock, so be careful!
