What are you talking about? My "Stock" FB beats up on Supercharged Cobra Mustangs...

At least I tell them its stock. After all, it's just a 13B...

When we fix up our FB's for autocrossing/racing we ditch the 4 link setup for a tri-link and dump the Watt's linkage for a panhard rod.

Look closely at the pic below from the new Mustang and what do you see? At the top of the diff you'll see a short tri-link. Behind the axle housing you'll see a panhard rod. That 4 link design of the older Mustangs is now gone.

I'm switching the stickers to my q45.

It runs 0-60 in 6.7 secs with 278hp but the weight is off the scale and it handles like crap. Funny thing is like 85rotarypower mentioned it doesnt feel like it could hold up to my 7.

I was talking to my wife about this thread and she was following me back home last night in her car. I have a 3 mile stretch next to my house that is all nature preserve 2 lanes 2 way and never monitored by the cops. She has a 96 Maxima GLE and I called her cell and told her to hang with me. I hooked up good and shifted ON POINT, got to 110mph looked in my rear view and she was right on my ***. Then to top it off when we got home I asked her whether she floored it (it's an automatic) and she wouldnt answer me (and still hasn't). I'm not talking to her AND I'm pulling 1 of her plug wires when I get home.

OK I'm just going to chill in my ride and put a fuzzy toy on my antena because thats what the elderly guys do down here in FL so they dont get harassed. Maybe I need 2 toys so the elderly dont harass me... now that I have awaken from fantasy land.

And to freaking top it off when I dropped my youngest off at school I heard some kids telling me they liked my Toyota.

To heck with em all I still like my baby. Nothing handles better (in my world... at least today... this hour...)
