Now I've seen it all 
. I went out for a litle boot in the Stang tonight and noticed a Yellow 73' Mustang [nice paint job!!]with a duel ram air hood and MACH 1 in big letters along the bottom of the door following me as I pulled in for gas. When I stopped the guy who owned it came over to talk,when he asked me if my car was fast, I said " Ah, it's not too bad" then he went on and on about how fast his car was, and if I wanted to race him. So I thought sure what heck, it's not like I've never been beat before. I asked what he had for an engine and he just grinned but wouldn't tell me, but it sounded stock. Anyway, off we go out to the old closed highway, when we get there he slows down and stops and I pulled up beside him. On the 3rd beep we take off and I immediatly pull about 10 car lengths on him, thinking he screwed up I let off and he goes roaring past, I just let him go and follow him till he turns around,then do the same and pull up beside him again, he's laughing and says Wow,I sure kicked your a**, I was like Ummm.... Next race, 3rd beep, again I instantly pull 10 car lengths but I just kept going, by the end of the 1/4 I was about 30 car lengths ahead of him. When I stop and wait he pulls up behind me, gets out of his car and says " holy ****, are you running NOS? I'm like uh no. After we talk awhile he walks over and pops the hood on his car.
Under the hood is a friggen 318 with a 2bbl carb!!!! He said it used to be a 6 but he took the motor out of his Dodge truck and welded it in [also cut, hacked and chopped anything that was in the way, including cutting a hole through one of the shock towers!!!] He said his truck was really fast so he figured he'd put the motor in his car, he was astounded that I could have beat him!! 
Wow, what a dumba**. I chuckled to myself all the way back to town. Just thought I'd share.
Somebody get that car some antibiotics!
