Mustang drivers :sigh:

Take a look, you might notice quickly that this is all at the same corner/intersection. This is apparently something called "Mustang week" You would think after the first few cars they would learn.

Mustang stands for Massively under sized tires and no go.

Yes, I hate Mustang drivers too and I had one incident when I Mustang driver almost rear ended my car and he wanted to start a fight with me.

Look at who drives the cars high on this list and it's self explanatory...

I really hope you guys are kidding because that's pretty much what they did and WHY they ended up spinning out.


If you have started to rotate backing fully off the throttle is probably the WORST thing you can possibly do.

Yea I was like when I read that, you can actually watch the white one. When he goes into second you can see his back start drifting left a little. And if you listen for the exhaust when it cuts out you see him just straight spin around. If he had stayed in it and steered right he would have been fine.

I was a passenger in a Mustang on one occasion when I was 15. The dipshit driver nearly killed me (plenty of scars to remember the occasion) while he and the other passenger walked away no problem. I've never gotten in one since.

yeah, i remember the first time my i got in a mustang with my friend. he tried to show off. needless to say, he peeled out from a standstill, and about 4 seconds into it, he lost controll and the car slammed into a curb, went on two weels tilted on my side, landed, and spun. if he peeled off three inches more to the left, we would have rammed into a big fukin truck.

ever since then, ive never stepped foot in one. id rather be in a kia spectra.
