First I Supercharged my mustang, then blew out both head gaskets in the first two weeks. I didn't have the money afterward so the stang sat in a barn for 2 and a half years. Then it went to a shop to have the motor stroked. It was at the shop for 8 months. Finally got it back and after the break in miles, it ran rough. I didn't exactly have the money to have the car tuned by who I wanted to plus the DR's were bald. So then again it sat for yet another 5 months. Once I got it tuned not two weeks later the clutch went, guess who didn't have the money for that! So yet another 6 months I finally got the clutch replaced. Two weeks later the water pump went. The car sat for about a month. I replaced it last week. I was supposed to go to the track tonight to FINALLY run it. Last night when I was leaving my buddy's shop i ran over something( It was small and didn't see it, still don't know what it was). Needless to say i heard a hissing noise. I pulled over and watched my Drag Radial completely flatten in front of me. ONE more day was all i needed! Just my luck!!
