For me its hard not to get up on it when i get a chance at an empty stoplight ;P.

I'm starting to realize that very few people realize that Ford has a new motor. I'm guessing most assume it has a 4.6 like the 2010 model. This makes for a fun time at the strip when people see the 5.0 badge and a time-slip to go with it :P

Yeah, so very true. And also, any Mustang fan would have known about that the 5.0 Coyote long ago. And yeah, any poor ignorant fool who thinks all S197s have 4.6L engines in them will be in for a sure surprise at the track tickets!

Those newb soldiers are a combination of things: They are not 'Stang fans, and they might have been so caught up in training during AIT that they could care less about keeping up with cars and what the latest ones have in them.

How's that Bama tune treating you? My car is identical to yours down to the color and the wheels.

Are you in Killeen? The reason why I ask is because the only track I can think of in the Central Texas area is in Seguin (well, it is more like south of Central Texas).

I'm in Augusta GA atm. I checked out Carolina Speedway in Aiken SC. I gotta find some mustang groups around here.
