    pull her down into 2nd for that 45-55 roll, pull her down into first for that tire breaking 30 roll, hammer it and through it into drive, will shift normally after that.

    You raced his race. Run him from a 10-15mph punch. I would think you could get out in front of him, for a second or two. You have to play street races to your advantage a little bit and a 55-60 mph roll race definitely is never going to be in your favor against a car like that. Lower that thing some more since the exhaust doesn't drag anymore and chop the top 3" for better aerodynamics. Better yet, your short, chop it 5".J/K

    P.S. Thanks for calling me, I like going to Mexico.

    yeah I know I raced his race. but if I can do good at a freeway roll with the advantage to him. I wanna try and dig now. I wanna lower it, but that intercooler makes me nervous if I go any lower. haha i dunno if your saying I didnt call you because it was spur of the moment. But if I setup a dig race with him Ill give you a shout and you can come too

    SLAM it!!!when you need to jack it up drive up on a board to give you a few more inches of room.. Or just throw Tylers mom under there that should do the trick...

    Hey guys this is my first time to post on this site. I own a 03 silverado and an 02 mustang gt. I know alot of chevy owners that hate fords and visa versa, but i on the other hand love both, hence why own both brands. I think alot of times chevy owners underestimate what the little 4.6's in the mustangs are capable of, while the chevy trucks are bad ass i have to say i love my mustang also. They can both be made to be extremely fast. I think this was a good race between the truck and the car, it was mentioned above that you were racing his race and if you would have left from a 10-15mph roll it would have been a different outcome, maybe but maybe not, i'd like to really see this mustang owners specs on his car, cause its hard to believe him pushing over 400hp if all he had was just a vortec supercharger. If he had upgraded gears it might not be that much different leaving from a 10-15mph roll, just my .02 great race though
