some fun on 43
i just got my 02 mustang(v6) and my buddy got an 06 monte carlo(N/A v6) and we decided to see who was faster on interstate 43. we ended up not being able to race because of traffic but still had some fun however i was flying up a hill in the passing lane getting ready to pass my buddy when he had slow done for an 05+ gt. i slowed down let my buddy get in my lane and we both pass the gt and i dont think the he stomped on it but he got pissed and threw on his high beams and i took off. I dont know anything about that gen of mustang but did i outrun this gt in an v6. the only mod i have is a cai. i really feel dumb asking this because he probaly didnt even try but i kno if i was him i would have gunned it

He probably does open it every once in a while, doesnt mean he has to try to race a car half his speed at every chance he gets. He probably has common sense and doesnt want to race around an interstate. He probably saves it for the track.

ya i knew it was a dumb question but idk i know if i was him i would have been a jackass and try to show some punks that went flying by what was up. and i kno im a retard for doing this dumb **** but im a teenager doing dumb **** is second nature to me.

Ill give you major points for being honest, but yeah, racing around on publish streets and highways is a pretty good way to get you or someone else killed.
i hope your survive your teenage years. lol

Newsflash! A GT is not a race car.
So, what do you have to loose? If you wreck then what? You loose your $1500 car? Your parents yell at you? Well, some of us have wive's, children, reputations, and responsibilities. Some of us don't appreciate ***-clowns like you racing on public roads.
Know what I do when I see kids racing? I call the police with plate numbers.
Grow up, before you hurt someone or worse. Take it to the track and realize that most of us don't have anything to prove and too much to risk by racing....especially a kid in a V-6 Mustang.

haha, thats pathetic. Now his little friend joined up to voice the same idea. A mustang GT isnt a racecar... its just a car. settle down.
Has there been a single person that we have praised on this forum for street racing?

i understand what we we did was stupid. i would have much rather gone to Pittsburgh raceway park and done a proper drag race but they don't allow 16 year old kids on the track and its not free. this was my first time going out and street racing and we ended up not racing anyway because there were to many people out on the usually empty stretch of road. we were only on the road for less than 5 miles in each direction. when we thought the roads were clear enough that's when we opened up our cars and when we caught up to the gt i passed him and slowed down back down to the speed limit and got ready to get off at our exit. the only reason i speed away from him was because he was blinding me with his high beams. o and i never said the gt was a race car i was just saying i would assume the gt would be faster than me in my base model mustang but i see from your responses he would have left me in the dust and he clearly wasn't trying to show off.

When i was 16 I drove a kia sportage and was damn glad to even have a car that ran. Racing people was the farthest thing from my mind. Of course this was before every kid had seen the fast and furious and thought every car was a race-car. Consider yourself lucky to have a decent newer first car at 16 and try to stay safe long enough to enjoy it.

Well, now, that was intelligent. You must be a Nobel Prize winner with that logic. So, now, let me ask you a question? What the hell are you supposed to do with a GT? Race it everywhere you go? Risk an accident, getting hurt, hurting someone else, or just looking like a dumb-*** racing a kid with a 180 hp car?

Listen to him. I'm 19 years old so i'm somewhat close to your ages. Either grow up now, or end up in the newspapers.

Lol....
Dumbassery is usually unintentional due to ignorance
Asshattery is the intentional removal of wisdom in guise of dumbassery
ya know usually when younger people come on here and start talking about racing and somone calls them a dumbass they become all unglued and start crying and throwing out insults.
you guys are all right.

Hey, we were all kids once....but that is not an excuse. We all do stupid things and you know what? Someone jumped my *** too for stupid things I did too when I was young. Being young is no excuse....it just puts things in perspective.
Otherwise, we would all still be pooping our diapers....after all, we were all babies once too.
Racing has no business on the streets.
Seriously, what does it accomplish? That a 200 hp car is faster then a 190 hp car? What do you win? What do you get to show for it? Is there a prize? A trophy? A medal? Sure, there is heart pounding and it is fun. We all know why people do it....****....street racing has been around for years. Just consider the alternatives and take it to a track. It is much more fun on a track anyway.
I respect you guys for comming here....speaking up...and taking it all in. No one is bashing you, per se...just street racing. You are both welcomed members of this site so far as you contribute and a little healthy street racing debate never hurt anyone.
I see nothing wrong with a little spirited driving within the law and certainly within common sense. We have all goosed it a time or two....just keep it under control....well under control.
