Default my 98 GT vs mineral grey mach 1

not sure if this guy was stock or not, he had gorgeous (FR500 i think?) wheels, maybe a cat back i couldnt tell. couldnt hear it over my car.

i was driving down bleep road doing 45 mph, when this guy pulls up next to me, paces me for a min, then gives me a ricer flyby. jumps over to the freeway exit. (wich leads to a 2 lane road next to a wall, so traffic cant see us for 1/2 mile, perfect spot for racing) so i give chase. he has to go around a slow car, and as soon as he does we both hit it. he's 2-3 cars in front of me. he whips back into the right lane, and slowly gaining the whole time i pull to his bumper by 130 mph.

i need a bullit manifold and a retune. the top end power i'm losing because of the pi manifold is killing ne. i would have easily passed this guy.

Too bad you didn't get to go from a light, I bet you would have torque'd him to death

Mach 1's are Dark Shadow Grey not Mineral Grey. Not trying to be a dick, just trying to inform the uninformed. BTW what times you running?

Good run Bryan. If you guys had started next to each other you would have definitely won.

it was dark outside, but i knew it was one of the two. wasn't sure so i guessed.[8D]


havent taken my car to the track yet in it's current form. maybe in the spring.


the funny thing is, he prob thought i was racing him with a crappy NPI GT engine, when in fact i was racing him with his own motor. well, shortblock anyways.

Mach 1's came in both Dark Shadow Grey and Mineral Grey. Just trying to inform the uninformed.

there are better manifolds out than the Bullitt. i think Fox Lake has one called the P-51 that is killer
