I figured I would share a recent conversation I had (well, me and my girlfriend had) with my girlfriends ex.
Short version- he thinks his STOCK 95 mustang GT convertible is the greatest car out there. Says he's never lost a race, even beat a Viper once. I call BS, and hilarity ensues. Here's some funny bits and pieces of the conversation:
First, an IM between her and Mike (the glorious mustang owner). This is a snippet of when he is trying to prove the mustang is faster than my supra.

In a 1/4 mile... lmao ok. and its the fact of the cars with a weaker engine GETTING that high, it techniclly CAN get that high... but will it? Lmfao no. If mommas boy is allowed to leave home tell him ill meet him anywhere and remain undefeated in my car which i beat a viper down old country road in.... also my car i didn't need to put extra time/money into to make it good
Its like trying to ask someone 5'5'' to block a dunk from Shaq... COULD he do it if he has the jumps? Yeah... Will it happen?... Naw. 5'5'' Might have the jumps... But too weak

So thats the end, for now. I figured someone else would get a laugh from this guy.
((Mods, if this should be in other cars, sorry, please move it.))
