*Disclaimer* I know street racing is bad and am aware of the consequences, if anyone is offended by street racing, do not read on.

Okay, I was just curious what all you guys think... a girl at where I work just got a new G6 GT and she's about convinced that she'd whoop me, but I personally think due to stats I've read about on her car, I'd rip her a new one. No money or bets or anything like that, it would just be for fun. Just curious on what you all would think. I don't have any timeslips or anything to prove what my car can do, but mods are as follows:

-80mm C&L MAF w/ K&N and modified intake tube
-UD pullies
-3200 Stall converter
-Baumann Shift Kit
-Fairly new plugs and wires
-brand new O2's
-Exhaust
-Walbro high output fuel pump
-Kirban fuel regulator set at 40 PSI
-All maintenance kept up with

My cousin picked one up Thursday. The loser had to pay for movie tickets. I got to see Batman Begins for free Saturday Afternoon. (we took my car) :steering
 
A friendly and cheap wager would be for the loser to have to run down the block buck-naked. After she gets over that embarrassment, she'll be all yours.

GREAT IDEA! Then you can post pics!
 
LOL! I would, but she is a little chubby. Cute, don't get me wrong, but not really someone I wanna see naked... LOL!

Heh, I'm sure that the Mustange II pic is ment to be funny, but I had one when I was in Highschool. It was a 4 speed, had a 4 barrel carb, exhaust, and I believe 411 gears (?). It would smoke all my friends new GT mustangs. It wasn't the cobra though. But one day I was getting on it pretty hard and the timing belt broke and you know the rest. All the pushrods were bent etc.... Ended up selling it. I still miss that car.

Sorry,but the fastest Mustang II [if you want to call it fast]was in the 16-17 second range,you are not going to beat new mustang GT's with those numbers. my sister had a 77 Mach 1 and the damn thing was a 6 cylinder, slower than a snail,so slow you had to plan a day ahead just to go to the store! Pintostang is what they are. What could you possibly be missing compared to anything else? Here's a real Mustang for future reference. And I gaurantee you that it has never been beaten by a Pintostang II!! LOL!! :nos:

You will spank it and look good driving too.

unfortunatley she will say you beat her only because you did some mods.
