I took my daughter to Island Dragway last Friday, they handed me the F-Body's vs Mustangs flyer, thats how I found your board.

Bought my 89 IROC new when I was 19 yrs old - and the odometer tells me I really got some use out of it. Had the car re-painted and a bunch of other cosmetic things in 2000.

I plan on bringing it on Aug 7th, maybe I'll even race it.

Were you wearing the black sweatshirt Diva? Thanks, the car is clean but the motor is tired - it was a full second faster in 89 when I took it there a few months after I bought it. I had alot of fun, please let me know when there are other events

We tried to find you! We saw your car over by the bridge when we were in the stands, made a mental note to visit later, then talking through the staging lanes we tried to find you, and spoke with another red third gen owner who only had 80k miles haha
