first gen SHO from a dig

...well sort of

came up on this dude on my way to work. saw the sho on his bumper and i couldnt resist. i love those cars and my brother used to have one so i figured what the hell. i eyeball him as i roll up to the light and got no response. the light went green and i spun in first as always and pulled away with him at my bumper. i know i got the jump on him but when he went for it i expected him to reel me in and it just didnt happen. he caught up to my back doors and i held him off there til we shut down at 80. we stopped at the next light and he told me he saw me look at him but didnt think i would pull it. i laughed and told him i didnt think he would either. said he was stock and sure that he would have had me if he was ready. i'm positive he would have but i did expect more from the sho when we got on it.

Ford's Taurus SHO (Super High Output) model had an eleven-year run. In 1989 it was introduced with a Yamaha-built 3.0L V6 and only with a 5-speed transmission available. By the end-of-the-line in 1999 Yamaha was working with Ford on building the SHO's 3.4L V8 motor. Only a four-speed automatic was available in the later years.
