as always from a roll at like 35mph. i got ahead of him and he put a nose one me for a long time, never got ahead of me and i couldnt get ahead of him, it was kinda up a hill too. he said it was just a regular type s... i think its the tl model with a 3.2l that makes 258hp and like 234ftlbs of torque. he probabably should have done better im thinking with those numbers

You did good considering it was your 2.3l you were racing with!

The TL Type S and the RSX Type S are both mid to high 14 second cars.

uh no it was my gt
my 2.3l is a fair mount slower, however its more top end so from a roll i might of not been too bad in the 2.3l but he woulda beat me for sure in the 2.3l

Hence the J/K at the bottom of the post... That means "I knew it was your 5.0".

cool another 86er. today nw mustangs did the annual mustang round up, i never realized how rare our 86s are, infact there was no more than like 8 4eye cars outa the 1000 plus mustangs!!there was a 79 pace car and 3 svo's, way cool. everyone seems to be about the new or really old, and i hate the old rich guys with their cars
