The Tabe said… I have a cousin that has a blue hatch back, I think 1989 Ford Mustang. It runs in the low 9s . His stepson Jade Morvant runs the car. I also have a brother that runs a hatch back mustang.
To be honest, I have never been back to any track, once I pulled the Tasmanian Devil off and turned it into a show car. Hell this was a lot cheaper.
I plan to go to no problem drag strip in the near future just to see and get back old feeling, but I think my race days are over. I just want to ride around and look good.
Take care my friend.
