Finally, a good kill.
I finally got the Cobra out on the road tonight and while in the area of 43 and Bell I passed a 2004 or so Stang going the other way so of course I revved it as we passed.
I seen him hit his brakes and turn into AutoZone so I figured maybe some other day.
Now turning off bell to 35th ave what do I see and hear, a boosted Mustang that really wanted to play.
After I gave him 2 good beatings we stooped at a light where he said "what does that weigh 1800 pounds" and I just laughed.
I asked him how much boost he was running as I could really hear it big time and he said 13PSI but the motor was made to run 20 PSI.
As the light turned green I pulled him by 3 cars right of the bat and I wasn't really into it that hard as I would have just spun, next light he wanted more so we did it again and then I waved and did a U-turn and headed home.
I know, I know all you old folks are going to flame me for a little playing but it was my first chance without the wife in the car. For some reason all my challenges happen with her in the passenger seat and it's just not worth hearing her complain.
P.S.
Thanks Jeff, she's pullin pretty hard.
Dan

Dan D Rat, Don't listen to Mikie. His car doesn't have enough power to get him into trouble and I'm sure that your's is much peppier, if Jeff has been tweaking it. That thing about duct tape....Ginny would use it on him, if he didn't have all that facial hair.

Hey Dan,
I know you are all jazzed bout dustin that Mustang yesterday and that is cool. Your first street kill is always a great memory and keep enjoying it (RFO !!!) You might want to be a little carefully calling out some of Bruce's Toys. I am very confident even his old Falcon could have beaten the same Mustang you smoked. Not to take anything from your first victory but the 4 bangers in those Mustang II's just were not that quick. Maybe you could work your way up to the GT with say ooooh maybe try a 6 cylinder this time.

RAtboy, Are you old enough to remember the story about the hummingbird and the alligator? You should probably investigate that before you get bit! Arrogance is not becoming on anyone.

Oh Danr, if you had any power you could boast a bit also. Until then I guess others will just boast about beating you.

DWRAT.
Now you got me curious; what does your car weight and what kind of power does it put out?
I have a ERA FIA; I am guessing it weighs around 2,600 lbs with gas in it...I would like to get it weighed some day when the opportunity presents itself.

All you know is you issued a nasty beat down to that 'Stang; that's probably enough.
