Seriously if you wanna prove something do it on a closed track. Several months ago there was this Eclipse and a Camaro Z28 street racing down a busy street in Charlotte with a 45mph speed limit and the Eclipse hit a Mercedes with a mother and young daughter in it and killed them both.

+1 to everything posted before mine.

Street racing is for idiots.

We've all done it sometime in our lives....not saying we're perfect, but when you see someone killed because of it, you tend to take a different slant on it.

I think there's a difference between people like myself who have taken an entire almost completely apart and put it back together again (sometimes, more than once) have little or no use for ignorant, uninformed people who think a 4 door car with a V-tec badge, neon lighting, and an obnoxious tailpipe is fast.
Yes, some Supras are fast, probably faster anything I'll ever have.
If I got challenged to a race by one as rusted as you claim to let on, I'd probably die laughing. Then again, I wouldn't put myself in a situation or place harboring such stupidity.

Race on the track against some real cars, and live to brag about it another day. ;)

PS. A 5.0 Stang should be capable of staying with you, the new clutch and the stock i/c obviously won't give you any bonus power.

Moral: don't street race, or else don't post it here...I've been to enough funerals this weekend, and I'm tired of thinking about people who've passed.

If I seem harsh, and condescending, so what, my advice just may save your life, or someone else. Read the post before mine 3 or 4 times. You have a sister?
How about your mom, would you miss her if something like that happened to her?
It could. Of course, you could just get lucky and only smear your own guts on someones front yard/tree/mail box.

If you do keep street racing, or riding with people who do, you'll get no sympathy from me when someone does get hurt.
