Smile 15-20 car lengths

On a Mustang GT Convertable. Kind of cheating though, I was in my friends RUF 930 Turbo. We were stopped at a light, and this guy with the big wing on his Mustang was reving the **** out of his engine laughing at me, me just looking @ him, light goes green and he launches. Being not my car, I took of kind of normal then hammered it... 80kph in first, 140kph in second, hit 210 in third and hit the brakes to see his face. He was trying to avoid me buy jumping a few lanes and merging off, the girl in the car was laughing at him.
Spent most of sunday giving my neighbours rides and dusting riced out Acuras and Hondas. This car accelerated like taking off in a jet!

Some Kids in Mustangs just don't realize what they have. It is a fast car but in no way in the same league as Porsche, Ferrari, etc.
Unless the car ahs been totally built up for racing. A supercharger alone wouldn't even come close to a Porsche Turbo, let alone a RUF. The 911 Turbo S is my dream (lotto) car. Why that kid even wanted to race you is beyond me. I have a 2000 GT and would even think of racing , unless I just wanted to get a thrill out of watching the Porsche accellerate.

That's how it is for me.... My car is PAINFULLY slow, but I try and coax people with fast cars to dust me. I don't try and race them, I just want them to hit it to see how fast they move.... Ahhhhh, to have a fast car

By his actions this guy thought he had a chance. Had to spank him. What a blast though, I even gave the kid who filled up my gas a ride. My dream car...Ruf CTR2

Mahahahaha.
That's just plain mean.

The guy in the mustang must have shat his pants!
RUFs are so wicked.

Nice! Arrogant ****** like that need a good beat down from a car the likes of a RUF. Haha.
Mustangs may be nice, have big tires, and have a big block, but they do NOT blow away everything.

I get it again to take the wife around (she's on holidays) I'll try to get a few pictures. (maybe a few speedo ones)?

He's got a 348 on the boat from Japan now.... could be fun.

good win...but please goto the track.
No doubt... good advice. Have the car again this weekend, been good though. (mostly cruzing with a few "bursts") Generally I dont race, but this guy I couldn't resist. I like the fact that you just put it into boost for a few seconds and the race is pretty well over.
Know what you mean re: the stangs, my wifes best friends hubby has a high 10 Chevelle, very fast. I figure the Ruf could probably run 11's but its not mine to find out.

I'll get some pictures tomorrow though.

Silly me I had it turned off How are things in Burnaby?

Anyway I got some pictures, none while moving though. (too busy ) Had lots of fun... but no racing this time. Damn, he's going to sell both cars, (the Ruf and the 911), so I'm bummed. But until, I'm still ok to borrow it.
