I don't know why you guys don't get it. There is an alternative to hagging out a fox mustang, and making it into a full on drag car. (or any fox body for that matter)
It's no secret that I'm gonna have 20k or more in a on-off, 6 banger powered Fairmont. (Another absurd amount depending on who you talk to)
But here's the diff between it, and a drag car.
I get to drive it. Everywhere. Anytime. For as long, and as far as I want. With the AC on, and a hippie joe subwoofer rattling the fillings outta my head.
It'l make more power than I'll use, and I'll never push it hard enough to find out. That said, I can also not have to worry about leaving a piece of the crankshaft sticking out of the oil pan either.
I'm on the count down to this week end where I and the family (to include my AF son) will go to Savannah, Charleston, and end up in Myrtle Beach to witness one of the biggest spectacles of Mustang-ness that exists in this country. There'll be over 1000 cars there, and countless tens of thousands of people there to watch. I'll obviously be there to spectate as well (this year).
Those 1000 guys get it.
There's nothing wrong w/ spending stupid money on a car that can be used for it's intended purpose everyday.
