Hell Yeah, Brothas!

[thisnewday]

In the words of Cleetus McFarland, "Hell yeah, brothas!" I've just survived a demonstration ride in a 2007 S-291 Saleen Mustang. But it was touch 'n' go for a while and the driver shall remain unnamed, lol.

After the ride, said driver did share that, although quite a car for its time, the 400 HP supercharged 291 would be "spanked" by its 2018 counterpart simply by virtue of the leaps in fuel-management technology, etc, that've taken place in the interim.

And I'm totally willing to take his word for it, without benefit of a test drive, thanks all the same...

Oh I did once so love fast cars. Would have enjoyed that ride.

Hahaha, I suspected you might! But even though I worked with some pretty rad motorheads, back in the day, I almost wished I'd been acting my age last night and worn some Depends, lol...

Exactly. Or, at least, almost...
