Pinto VS Mustang... Decisions, Decisions

[Double W Racin']

a mustang will be ur better bet !!

Although I am leaning that way (pretty hard)... I still have a bit more research to do in order to completely make up my mind.

ok yota u called me out!! u might wanna spend some time reading and stop typeing! pobort is all over this board with nothing more than stupied remarks < if u like his remarks and wanna take his advice go for it!! but ive won well over a hundred races in a mustang !! and beat lots of yotas and pintos !! so there u have my in put!!

REALLY OVER 100 WINS, WHERE YOU YOU RACE? I'D REALLY LIKE TO SEE A GUY THAT'S SO DOMINATE. THE LAST GUY I'VE SEEN THAT WAS ALMOST AS MUCH OF A WINNER AS YOU WAS (not a nice word)(not a nice word)(not a nice word)(not a nice word) TRICKLE

SO WHAT IF POBORT SAYS STUPID STUFF, YOU DO THE SAME THING AND HIS SPELLING IS BETTER THAN YOURS. JUST CALLING A SPADE A SPADE.

SOMETHING TO THINK ABOUT. JUST BECAUSE YOU DON'T LIKE A GUY DOESN'T GIVE YOU THE RIGHT TO ASSULT HIM VERBALLY AND USE DEROGATORY REMARKS. HOW WOULD YOU LIKE IT IF SOMEONE PULLED THAT ON YOU? BESIDES, I REITERATE, IN THIS TOPIC HE DID NOTHING WRONG NOR DID HE DO ANYTHING DIRECTED AT YOU WHAT SO EVER.

u went from rear wheel drive to front!!! Most tracks want let them run together!!

every track i've run has both together and they are pretty darn close. Saabs, vw's, neons, escort, mustang, pinto, camaro, porsche 914, vega, monza, talon, shadow, charger, cavaliers, nissan 200sx, toyota celica, and more all race in the same division. The top 15 cars are all within .4sec qualifying. Only 2 people have won the feature more than once. 8 different winners in 13 races

THE NEON IS LIKE THE "PINTO" 15+ YEARS AGO. WHEN'S THE LAST TIME YOU FOUND A PINTO IN A JUNKYARD. I HAVEN'T SEEN ONE IN OVER 8 YEARS. SEEMS A LOT OF MUSTANGS THAT ARE 1/2 DECENT ARE GETTING TURNED INTO DRAG CARS IF YOU CAN EVEN FIND ONE FOR A GOOD PRICE. 15 YEARS AGO WE WERE BUYING FOX MUSTANGS THAT EVEN RAN FOR UNDER $200. WITH JUNK PRICE FINDING ANY MUSTANG IS GETTING NEARLY IMPOSSIBLE FOR UNDER $800

i have a race pinto plus a street pinto that i have in my back yard that i will put a turbocoupe engine in for my wife to drive around in. i can find at least 10 pintos within 25 miles of my home. mustangs are even easier to find, many for free. i guess it is a benefit of living in northern california. around here fwd's can run with other ministocks but either can't compete or can't take the pounding the rwd cars can. the only classes where the fwd are better is in the pure stock mini type classes where few modifications are allowed. i own more then just fords. i had a nissan z24 minitruck and still have a 20r/22r hybred mini mod. as far as newer engines go i have looked at the 2.5 dohc ford duratech and the 2.7 dohc toyota for future use, but for right now it is cheaper and less work to run the pinto/mustang, celicas, or some of the nissans.

HERE'S A THOUGHT. I'VE SEEN ESCORTS DO WELL AND ONE GUY HAS A PINTO MOTOR IN THE ESCORT. APPEARANTLY THE 2.0 BOLTS UP TO THE ESCORT TRANS.

it will bolt up to an escort diesel trans. as i have posted in the past the only person i have ever seen post about this combo was 22dodge, hmmm.

No hmm here, i have been around a while and i saw that post but the guy i saw with the pinto motor in an escort was in rockford il. When we were up there for a special bahama brackets. Where i run the gen 2 and gen3 escorts do pretty good with 1.8 dohc and 1.9's do well also. But then we run asphalt. Maybe fwd does better on pavemnet vs dirt IN MOD CLASS.

I dont understand your hostility toward me. Really i dont see why i need to justify my exsistance on this board when you wont answer my question first.

Dan, you need to stop this belitting and bickering at me. You started this assult.

If the consensus of others on this board wants me gone, then i will just disappear.

From here on out, dan please just leave me alone and do not attack me or make derrogitory comments at me. If you don't like what i say, report me to a moderator and let them determine if i am out of line. You, sir are flaming at me and that is in volation of board rules. I have reported you behavior to the moderators.
