I enjoy the sound of a good exhaust note.

Because going in a straight line is all they know how to do. Yes, some guys track their Mustangs, but most drag race as their form of competitive motor sports. My prior car was a 2005 Mustang GT with 5 speed manual. It was fun to pass five cars going up an uphill on ramp redlining it in 3rd gear. But it's just as fun to hit turns at high speed with the FR-S. It's just a different thrill.
