He brought someone else, dunno if it was his son, buddy, or whatever. The new guy musta been late teens, early 20s, and he had never heard a motor with open headers before.
So the other one asked if I could start it up so he could hear it. I do, and his face was priceless, he was looking at the car, looking at me, back and forth. I kill the engine and he goes wow! do you run NAWS on that? I was like uhhh, no. It runs on methanol. He had no clue what that was, so just nodded.
Then a guy drives by in a new 2005 Mustang GT. He asks me "is your car faster than that Mustang?" It took ALL I had not to laugh. I say 'yeah, that mustangs stock' His buddy had to explain to him what stock meant. THen I tell him that the new mustang probably roughly runs 8 seconds in the 1/8th mile, I run 7s in the 1/4, so by the time he's half track, I'm done. So then he asks me 'What about older Mustangs, like from the 60s? Are you faster then them too?' I tell him even a built up streetable mustang wouldn't usually run quicker than high 11s, low 12s, and thats pretty quick for them. He goes, 'no way, faster than event he old ones, like the back-in-the-day Mustangs??' I was ROLLING inside, but kept a pretty straight face.
Ahhh.. I love noob's.
