Who would buy a new '05 mustang and turn it into an nmra real street race car? (http://www.highperformancestangs.com/forums/techarticles/m5lp_0508_2005_mustang_real_street_car/index.html)Horse Sense:
A little history lesson. The '88 LX coupe that I have raced in the NMRA is getting long in the tooth. 5.0 Mustang & Super Fords Editor Steve Turner has asked several times when I was going to build a new car. I was quite attached to my little red '88 coupe. It has a history. It participated in every NMRA Race from 2000 to 2004. It was the third car in the Factory Stock 11-second club. For 2003, I made the switch to the 5.0 Mustang & Super Fords magazine Real Street class. It was July of that year the red coupe became the first car in the nines. Still Mr. Turner persisted in prodding me to consider a new ride. More on that later.inline_mediumwraptextrightFellow Real Street Racer Bruce Hemminger (left) is the new car sales manager at Van Drunen Ford. Early in November, Bruce worked on a dealer trade where he would procure a low-option, red '05 V-6 Mustang for our project. Here, we are taking delivery of the car one week before the PRI Show on December 3, 2004.32005590/techarticles/m5lp_0508_2005_mustang_real_street_carm5lp_0508_02 _+2005_mustang_rear_street+bruce_hemminger_and_van _drunen_ford.jpgTrue
