I on the other hand, Imports are not in my sights, I have the LS series engines in my sights... thats why ima start building mine,,, so I can be so cool and get a vanity plate that says IET LS1/2/3 or what not. Gonna take alot of work but its possible.
This guy seems to think the only V8 cars out there are mustangs. Funny to say the least.

If they're going to ask for a run they should try posting on a site where some 350z people are actually members... lazy....

Man, these cross-platform / cross-forum things always turn into such special olympics displays...

I did find it cool that the one guy posted Alberto's vids on there

Thats how almost all mustang owners are tho they think mustangs are the fastest and best car out there. I've beatn 5.0s and 4.6s wen my Z was stock and there mustang was stock and now that im TT i've beat a few more even an 04 with a kenny bell super charger and lots of other mods. Mustangs don't impress me one bit and of couarse wen they lose they got tons of excuses but it don't matter.

True but a 03 or 04 KB Tang can be a beast if they have the right parts and drivers

Yeah they can but why do like all mustang drivers have to think there the greatest car ever? And that V8s are the only thing that can make power? I respect all cars and just wish some other people would to you know.

the thing with racing a mustang is that unless you are very familiar with mustangs, you won't know if you are raing a poseur or a real beast until its too late.

There are lots of losers are there that think they haven't the fastest mustang around, and then there are the one who really do drive the fastest mustangs around.

Alberto is getting called out in that thread:

"I really got to say ,Ive seen alot of bad drivers but he takes the cake. The car is quick no doubt,I would hate to be the guy in the other lane he cant even keep the car in his lane ,takin out kones. Thats the guy that supposed to impress us better keep looking for something better.Not one clean lookin run that doesnt win races"

i love it
i think its funny that he assumes that we all aspire to beat mustangs, stock for stock Zs are already faster than mustangs (especially HRs) and the same goes for comparably modified Zs and mustangs. But in that mustang guys defense it must be tough owning a mustang when there are all those real V8s out there like LS1/2/3 making his car look like a joke

In many Mustang owners' defense, I'd say that the ones that typically smack talk a lot are the ones that are only lightly modded and/or half assed. I've met guys with really fast mustangs, and frequent a local shop that deals mainly in them, and the ones with the REALLY fast ones rarely provoke smack talk.

That being said, yes, I think the LSx platform is better suited for power (and I'm more of a chevy guy), but mustangs can be modded for pretty cheap. This especially goes for the 03+ cobras. They aren't called 'Terminators' for nothing...

Still, I know of quite a few Z's that would walk that guys 600whp cobra.

Does anyone actually give a flying **** about what a bunch of mustang drivers think about us? Even if someone like Alberto went over their and wiped the floor with those guys, their gonna make excuses and what not about why their mustangs are still touched by the hand of god.

I agree. Guys with big mouths can't back it up a lot of times. Better to keep your cards close to your chest and let them find out

exactly...

Besides, no matter how fast, there is always someone faster. I am just shaking my head at whoever posted alberto's videos with the smack talk: "Well here is a video of a member that would own pretty much anyone on here."
