I have a low tolerance to be upstaged or passed and so I have daily "dust offs" that I wont go into detail about. Seems every import and 'stang wants to "show me up".
Only one that took me was the 80K Top Gear AMG..lol

Ever since I traded the Camaro in on the Mustang I have had nothing but people wanting a piece....If it is not a BMW, Lexus, etc. it is a V-6 Camaro. I'll just keep it at the track.

So for the past week every day I drive home from summer school Ive been seeing a brand new mustang either a 2010 or 2011 and today I left school and saw the mustang as usual and we both stopped at the light next to each other. I look over and the guy in the mustang signals me to roll down my window I do so and he tells me he wants to race me down to the end of the street and of course Im not a street racer or any kind of racer at that so I say no and begin rolling my window up. As I roll my window up I hear him shout "whats the matter afraid I'll smoke your POS camaro?" so than I decide the streets not that long one quick race won't hurt so I say ok fine you got yourself a race. and he gets all excited and revs his engine and I rev mines as well. Than he looks over and I rev the engine again and all of a sudden hes like "you know what I don't want to embarrass you by smokin your car" and than makes a right turn and drive off and than the light turns green and I make a left and continue driving off but couldn't help laughing at how that guy chickened out after hearing my engine roar

I'm glad you didn't race. These cars are fast and they can get you into trouble quickly. Next time ask him to meet you at the drag strip. BTW, Mustang drivers have been the least of my problems. I have been buzzed by 350z's, lots of pickup trucks, Volkwagen GTIs, and a slew of mediocre V6 Hondas. I pay no attention to them.

The mustang had 3:73s...that's the biggest reason. You act like 390ft/lbs isn't enough to daily drive a vehicle...

At this point I don't even bother paying attention to them. I'd rather they pull ahead and get away from me.

pickup trucks?? wow REALLY??

well 350z's I can see why they'd challenge you but muscle beats imports everytime and wtf is up with pick up trucks thinkin they can beat a muscle car with over 400 hp

Par for the course. I had a match race set up with my buddies shelby. Confirmed at noon. Seven pm he calls me on my cell phone at the track and tells me he does not like the look of the borrowed DOT's and it was off. WTF He is definatley runnig scared of Pumpkin and I. Oh well I stomped on a couple of stangs and a Z06 instead.LOL

I think, instead of saying my car company can beat your car company. People should meet in public and fight it out (with fist of course), last man standing wins. Example: Randy Couture (since he owns a Camaro) is pitted against a mustang owner. Another Exmaple: Quinton Jackson (owns an Audi R8) and fights a Challenger owner. These are just examples, so plug in your name where Randy Couture or Rampage are and have fun. Cars are just another form of cock (mods, just talking about a rooster) measuring contests.

What I always got a laugh out of was when I had my 90 stang and my GSXR1000 is that more people in cars wanted to race the bike than my stang. And my stang was loud as hell.

I remember one guy told me that a LS1 Camaro with just a cam would keep up with my bike from 60mph +. I laughed in his face.

Ended up seeing the same dude in his 2000 TA that had heads/cam/200 shot of gas. He wanted to race my stang, but sadly it was gone by this time. So I reminded him what he said about the bike.

I walked him so hard with his heads/cam/gas it wasn't even funny. But that is all I have to say about that.
