to answer your question, why the hell are you doing this with a heavy ass Thunderbird anyway because mustangs are a dime a dozen, i dont like being like the 19 other people on the block that have one, i like being different, i dont fit in a mustang, the insurance is way to expensive, i like the IRS suspension, i like the handling that i have, (i can keep up with most stock c4 vetts in the corners with no trouble at all) i like the style of the tbird much better than the mustang, i like the fact that the chassis in my car isnt from 1979, i like the fact that i can put 5 people in my car with no trouble, i like the fact that i can put the same amount of stuff in the trunk of my car that fits in the back of a chevy blazer. I had a 97 mustang, and i just fit better in the tbird.
I must say that going from my first run of a 16.60's to the current 14.30's isnt half bad.
