it was terriable, split the block with the intake and oil pan holding them together.

i believe it was a 408w 500hp + nitrous. it was clowning that hardcore bird. the mustang gave up 6 car lenghs. had to peddle hard before 200 feet as he nearky was sideways over the center line and still only lost by 1.5 lengths. that brought race 4 where the block split. motor was smoaking good after the first run, you can tell the rings were hurting.

As sad as it probably would have made me, it would have been interesting to see as it sounds like it was an awesome race. Chris

the owner of the bird was pathetic

had a trans brake, nitrous and was getting traction the entire time and still wanted lengths

whereas the mustang had a cracked block, no oil pressure and no traction at all

every race i saw the mustang going sideways at the 1/8 mile

it was so funny hearing the guy cry "we brought a 10.5 second car and that mustang is faaaaast"

and the guy on the mustang team said "you just cant get it done"

that shut him right up ahha
