Default First day in the forum first race

I was heading 805 north on sandiego and i saw mustang gt. I did aproach him on 4th, and he took off.
I knew i was going to loose, but i tried him anyway. AAAAndddd guess what!!!! i was able to stay with him and bit him by car length at about, not sure but i think it was 105.. Anybody know what happened??
How did i just bit a gt??"?
my car is stock with 1200 miles, and this was my first race ever with s2000.
I know the GT was atleast 2000 and above.
Anyway i told my roomates this story and they called me a liar. But i swear this ain't no lye.
i was soooo happy.

anybody else bit a gt before??????

Who cares how you did it. Good work.

Welcome to the forum in the meantime and get ready for a bunch of flames like "BS" or "He wasn't racing" or "it wasn't a GT" and stuff like that. Just ignore it.

I think you'll find most members agree the S is a good match for a stock Mustang GT. Good kill.

Stock for stock from roll,the S will pull on the GT(from experience).But from dead stop whoever have better launch.

Don't be too suprised.

GT vs S2k is drivers race from a stop and S2K advantage from a roll...you should feel really good your 4-banger beat his bigger engine
