Default 5.0's in your area

i was just wondering how many 5.0's do you see where you live? for me i rarely see any and then once in a while one pops up.

there are a few of them around here, but most are beat to all hell, and barely running. all sorts of different colored smoke coming out of the pipes and whatnot.

i'm quite proud to say i have one of the nicest conditioned 5.0's i've ever seen.

i see alot of them, i also live close to an air force base. since ive had mine the guy up the road has raised more cane with his different variety of junkyard vehicles, his latest is a 90's model camaro that i intend on spanking once i get my heads on. i should probably be out there right now but its trying to drizzle. needed a break i guess. the "regular" mustangs i see are fox bodies with little to no mods. at our local drag strip there are 10-12 highly modded foxes with times ranging from low 6's to mid 5's (1/8th)
