I don't get what your saying about the 5.0L Mustang but I wouldn't own one
because their too much fun beating!!!  Especially in a VW!!  As far as the
"straight line racing" is concerned, it is a matter of taste and I like
running imports and wouldn't be able to with a Mustang.  I also do all the
work on my car so I don't think I could do ANYTHING with any other car for
the money I have in my car.  I like being different and racing a VW.  Still,
haven't been beat on the street!!!
