im sorry but it just makes me sick to see a good mustang go to waste. i was looking at pics on here and ran across an 86 gt puke green with hydros and (oh my god) dayton wheels . its just wrong. what kind of person in there right mind would do that to a stang? if that was your car whoever you are i hope you read this and that i step on your toes so to speak. dont get me wrong i LOVE to see a stang pull up the front runners as much as anyone but not with hydros. thats to whom ever has a mustang that has been trashed in this way. anyways keep meltin them tires till the next time

Don't feel old, I don't know what they are either. Then again, I'm probably older than you.

Airbags can be beneficial to a car's performance. I'm not sure about hydraulics, though.

Yeah... I question the performance advantages of 1000 pounds of extra oil and batteries.

Why is this in tech?
Oh- and every time I go over a speed bump, or into a parking lot or driveway and my car bottoms out, I wish I had hydros.

bet that bullitt was slow too... spinners weigh as much as like 6 wheels... hydros are beast on trucks tho... i saw this truck down in ocean city, maryland about a week ago... guy pulls up with like 18s on his s-10... looks like it's riding way to high... pulls into a parking space... then you hear two really loud banging "whooshy" sounds... and tha mother dropped right to tha ground... i was like daaaaaaaaaaaamn...lol anyway, it was awesome
