TuTu Apr 3 2012 - TuTu Breaks The Sound Barrier
« on: April 02, 2012, 05:27:07 PM »
Well not literally. In fact, we're in something that goes much slower than 776.2 mph but it's called the "Mach 1" because apparently Ford thought it looked that fast, or something. It isn't. But it was in the original Gone in 60 Seconds (although that was a '73). But that movie didn't feature, at any point, Nicholas Cage awkwardly running. So that's good. Plus this car looks badass.

Car: Ford Mustang Mach 1 '71

Setup: Stock. Oil Change. Wheels & Paint Allowed.

Restrictions:
Power - 315HP
Weight - 1615kg
Tires - Sports Soft
Tuning - Prohibited
Lounge: TuTuTuna

I was going to go with Racing Hard tires but I thought that would make it too easy. But if you bitch enough, I might consider changing it.

 Do we have a track pick yet or is it a secret? Kind of new here and not sure we are told until race day. :-[

Usually TuTu is random track to start and then vote on tracks as the night goes on.

Might want to consider the shorter tracks with this poorly-geared beast.
