Default Hey

Hey everyone,

Recently separated from the military and just moved here to Crowley. Looking forward to meeting some fellow mustang enthusiasts. Here's some pics of my ride. I was stationed in Germany so didn't want to tune the motor yet so motor is stock. Tons of suspension, audio and visual mods. 8 and a half minute run on the Nurburgring and a mid 12 second on a crappy drag strip with Mickey T street tires.

Thanks! Handles the turns surprisingly well. I had stock brakes so it definitely impacted my capabilities.

Driving my mustang in Europe, and especially on the old circuits like nurburgring would be a trip. Very cool.

Welcome to the party pal

It's insane! Ill tag my youtube channel for ya, it has a cruise I did in the 5.0 and one I went all out with my previous stang before I upgraded to the the 2013. In Germany the ring is considered a toll road so pretty much anything with an engine and seat belts can go on it. You'll be going 80 mph around a hair pin having to take a wide drift turn to avoid a bus full of kids who are taking a field trip to go on it! TONS of porches and BMW's of course. Check em out!

We need to get you on track for a DE event. The traffic in your videos is insane.
