2003 Laser Red Vert
Hey guys, I just got back from visiting NJ, were home was until 3 years ago when I decided to retire in the Myrtle Beach area of SC. I had some work done on my Mustang while up there; quite a bit really; almost 12K's worth. I an now up to about 59K, counting the 28.5K I paid for her new in 2003. I can now officially say that I am done modding my car. My tuning guy from Crazy Horse Racing did all the work. I had her intercooled, re-pullied, re - belted, he put in bigger injectors, a new fuel pump, Fatter rear tires, went back to the stock 327's, I would have run out of gear in the 1/4 running the old 373's. Of course I had her re dyno tuned also. my Paxton2000 is capable of supporting 800hp, and I am right about there. The car is WAY to fast. I have a $1200 GPS excelerometer, it tells me I am covering the quarter way into the 10's. I think I can safely say that there are VERY few, if any, cars out there that can beat me at the track; at least cars that are street legal. My Mustang has ALL the stock interior; everything. I redline in 4th gear @ about 145mph, and when shift into 5th, she keeps right on pulling. I was out on Rt.701 down here in SC, not a car in site, just a couple of miles of flat straightaways that you could see down the road forever. My Speedo only goes up to 150mph, but I had her in 5th gear @ 5000rpm... that figures to be about 165-167mph. With the top down. I won't do that again, but I just had to know. My GPS said I hit 100mph in way less then 8 seconds. It's just too bad that all those "Supercars" have a top speed of 200mph. I can tell you this though, they are in for a shock when I leave those Lambo's in my rearview mirror up to 140 or so. Cruise Night in the Summer at Myrtyl Beach is crawling with Vipers, Lambo's, Farrari's, you name it.... am I gonna have some fun!!!!!!!!!!!!!

What the hell? I just found this thread for the first time, and was digging what I was reading about your car. Then I got to the second post and saw the fricking crying and name calling. I lost respect for you, and lost my desire to say anything nice about your car. You have ensured that all of us jealous babies will now have nothing nice to say about your car. It's a shame though.
You pity us SOBs? You call us LOSERS? I pity you for being an apparently retired man, who pitches a toddler type tantrum when he doesn't get the attention he wants. I guess this is negative, so add me to your ignore list. Not that I imagine I'd ever want to say anything to you again anyway.

Wow, so you are bragging about having 59K in a mustang built after 1970.... Congrats, you have more money than sense. You are bragging about going 167 MPH on a public road with the top down..... You are bragging about mods that you didn't do yourself..... Not to mention how poorly written and hard to read your post is. Congrats, I guess.
