    Quoted from Junkhauler:

    I have a good buddy that used to let me drive his 86 Mustang GT manual back in the day..... it was a lot of fun but I enjoyed driving my Porsche way more..... My buddy ended up getting a 93 Cobra and put a blower on it.... that was a fast beast back then. I don't remember him ever losing a street race.

    I'm a foxbody guy, i own a 1990 that i've had since about 93. Has the engine out of a dohc SC terminator, makes 485rwhp and 500rwtq.
    The things that make them great cars are also what makes them so dangerous.
    Lot's of torque, light ass end, drum rear brakes (well, these don't make it great, but they add to the danger), no basic drivers aids like antilock brakes.
    Very much a drivers car, if you are good it's rewarding to drive, if you aren't so great behind the wheel, you wreck it...

    I don't have any recent pics (about the only thing i take pics of is my kids and things i need to know how to reassemble).
    But when i built it at my buddy's race shop (formerly outrageous mustangs, and he's moved on), he used to do video's of all the cars on the dyno. Not my video, editing or music and i probably would have preferred not using my entire name, lol, but it is what it is.
    Some things have changed. I've added black leather recaro's with netted headrests and pretty much the entire Maximum Motorsports Maximum Grip package (one part at a time, i didn't go out and spend 6G's).
    I also bought a car lift after he closed up his shop to make my life easier.
