Sorry to get off topic..... But what springs did you drop with? I think it looks a little too low for the stock tires. If that was on 18s it would look even better.
Too much gap before and after the tire in my personal opinion.

The tech that installed mine said that it would be a great idea to get some kind of shield between the pipes and the charger...so I did :p
lol I get out plenty. I have about a 4 mile stretch of highway between me and work and in the morning and evening....it's bloody bug rush hour.
My only real 'race' I've had since I've had everything in was against a mid 80s or so mustang. I'm not sure what they did to it in terms of mods outside of a full exhaust, but the engine sounded real nice. I don't think either of us planned it. The light turned green and we're both in first...I match his speed and then we both just gun it. My headlights were at his front wheels until the end of third gear...shift to fourth and he started pulling. The tC's 4th/5th gear suck :p
You need to get out more....

I have come to realized that Stangs are more BARK than bite 80% of the time. Don't know why you didn't pull on him. Stangs are pretty slow.

Friend of mine has a 5.0 Stang with a 351w (windsor) motor in it. I pulled on him with my stock Z when I shifted into 3rd.
