Mustang Pile Up.
I was sleeping just now when a friend of mine called and told me he saw 3 mustangs all wrecked it on coming traffic neat beltway 8. They were all street racing obviously. Thats not even the worst part. Turns out one of the guys is one of my mustang buddy who has put a lot of time and money into his 05. He told me that one of the stangs was smashed in from the front and his was smashed from the side. Hopefully he's alright as well as his mustang. Hoping for no frame damage but thats not likely from the way it sounded. Man it's like waking up to a nightmare. I seriously couldnt even go back to sleep after that phone call and I have work tonight!

RE: Mustang Pile Up.
That's exaclty the reason why I save it all for the track. Don't get me wrong, I'll do a WOT for a second or two now and then by myself when no one else is on the road but street racing is just plain crazy and stupid. That being said I hope your friend is alright with no broken bones, that's what really matters.

RE: Mustang Pile Up.
Well, there isn't much you can do now...
Since your buddy is OK, you can help him later to put the Stang back to its previous condition.
I did that for a friend of mine andhis car came out better (took a few months though).

yeah that was different though, it was a controlled environment on the dealers own inventory lot in the back on a private street, that we had to go through a security guarded entrance, and we shut them down at 80mph.
