I've had pretty good luck with the Mustang at Dorchester though - most every race I was challenged to turned in my favor (there's been some exciting close ones too!) because people underestimated a little V6 driven by a girl . My video against a Challenger R/T has over 145 comments on YouTube of people arguing, cheering, and having panties in a twist

I don't put money on races, and the only crap talk I do is in good fun
Thats funny as hell, I just went and found that video so I could read the comments.

Those stupid hemi owners are some of the worst fan-boy's Ive ever encountered I swear if the car has hemi or RT badge as soon as you buy it the alien's must come down and suck half your brain out.

I like any brand as long as its fast and there's nothing with an RT or SRT badge that has ever impressed me stock for stock versus some medium budget performance car.

Its extremely bad when you can buy the most expensive Dodge SRT challenger/charger and the most expensive Camaro SS and just get slap run over by the cheapest Mustang GT, then the non SRT or SS models get slap run over by the V6.

Have to agree with most of this.

R/T's are pigs anyway.

How's the aftermarket parts market for the G8s now? Sad that Pontiac got the ax as opposed to Buick...especially after the Tiger Woods debacle...
