Mopar vs Rice

Funniest story I have ever heard but sadly didnt get to see was a 66 Mustang Coupe whipping a Honda Civic. All started on Industrial Bouvelard in Cumberland Maryland in the spring of 2006. Guy was testing his 66 he just got done with a 70 Boss 302 motor and automatic trans when this Honda comes up next to him crusing down the road. Honda revs up a few times and acts big and bad. The gentleman in the Mustang however ignores it for about 1/4 of a mile. Then finally when the Honda wouldnt quit the Mustang guy punches it as does the Honda. Well the Mustang won by a long shot but when it hit 3rd gear and was hitting about 5500 grand, trans blows out in front of the Ames store, blowing fluid and parts all over the road for an 1/8 of a mile.

Anoter one happened legally on the 1/8 mile strip in Waynesboro Virginia. But not a Mopar again so very sadden there. This was a 67 Nova with the slant 6 automatic combo. He was racing a turbo powered Eclipse 5 speed, plenty of "bling bling" and loud enough. Well the Eclipse had huge tire spin for the first 100 feet or so, finally hooked and you could hear the blow off valve and everything "cool". But just quiet as a chruch mouse, the 67 slant 6 automatic powered machine won. The tuner was beating his steering wheel and cussing the car out I suppose, or himself afterward on the way back to the pits.
