Lighten up please.

Please.

See my rant.

*DGthe3* · 12-30-2008, 03:32 PM

Folks, this thread is over a year old. The comments made go back to the summer of 2007. Are we really so bored over the holidays that we have nothing better to do than bicker about what Saleen said, meant, and did?

This topic is "water under the bridge folks".

Please, as my fellow Mods. have requested, watch the bickering.

This whole post is funny. So what if Saleen twists your nipples.

I like how a post about 4 down says that Saleen just didn't show us any respect- but then the avatar has a guy with a Chevy shirt saying "God hates you" to a guy in a Ford shirt.

However, it's fun to see a dead post brought back to life.

Gm supplied him with the molds and parts , so essentially he sub contracted out to GM to make a Hollywood prop. He assembled the car and made the frame fit nothing thousands of shop across the country can't do. I remember him saying how GM was working with him giving him info and how he was going to possibly work on a Saleen Camaro if would let him. He sang plenty of praise on the car back then. Whats even funnier is he put money into that mustang/movie all he did is give ford a commercial. Who sees the mustang in the movie and think Saleen? To top it off he say bumblebee was going to be the mustang hahaahahahahahahahaha talk about sour grapes. Nowhere other than his mouth has anybody ever heard this everybody heard about VW not wanting in but this?

LS1 actually, it was an 04 GTO.

That's right it 05 had the ls2. The Ls1 in the 04 only made a whopping 350 hp. How much money would you have to spend on a Saleen stang back then to get it up to 350? ALOT. To call that engine a v6 is an insult to anyone that owns a LT1 or an LS1 car. That was the one lie among the many that send me over the top. Someone with his status should know better, trash talking is one thing but facts are facts. There was no embelishing there they were all flat out lies. I've been to a few chevy rallies no even mentions ford because we don't care some even I'm sure like ford but to get on a mic. and do that? Ok I'm done, hes still a looser.

Ford can't even put the emergency brake lever on the right side. They still make cars like it's a Pinto. The other day I scored a nice kill on a green 07 GT mustang... With a 17 year old car I embarassed the dude and his GF lol....

After he ate my dust he pulled up next to me on the highway and put in neutral and revved like a dummy.

17yrs old, yeah... but it's still an LT1 in a lighter car with a better transmission and rear (& everything else) still nice to show people who's really the boss, though!
