I thought that might get you to take a peek. As unlikely as it sounds my '07 Mustang GT beat the Shelby GT500 at Lapeer Dragway as indicated in my time slip. I couldn't believe it either. After the race I went over and talked to the owner. He wasn't having problems with the car or anything like that, he said he just didn't know how to drive it properly. My numbers were nothing special but I was happy with my .591 reaction time. And his .951 reaction time shows me he is not exactly a newbie. I didn't even match my previous best time as indicated in my sig. It put a smile on my face though to beat a Shelby GT500.

I actually felt sorry for the guy. He asked if I had any performance mods and I told him what I had. He seemed very relieved by that. As though my car was equal to his because of that. If I was him I would feel lousy after spending the kind of cash it takes to get that car and then get beaten by a mildly modded GT.

Comments welcome but please spare me any BS comments.

Wow he really couldn't drive. It's always fun to win.
I remember beating a 427 with my little 289, just felt great.
Was he stock?

You didn't happen to get that on film did you? That would be a great video to show people who want to race you. Just tell them you're a Shelby killer and hit play
