    yeah, that's why I'm a bit peeved that I'm missing it. I was really looking forward to getting a bit more speed on the track but it looks like I'll have to find my fix some other way... Alright. I'll pick you up a shot glass so you can knock back a few before the next event... maybe that'll...

    <smack talk>hmmmm... I guess I'm going to have to take it up a notch at the next event!</smack talk> damn! and I thought I had been busy :p I'm still debating over whether or not to hit the Deland event but here's the rest of my upcoming schedule: 2-14/15 Deland??? 2-22 Whitehouse 3-7...

    You can't convince Christy that you need the seat time at another event? ;) Actually, Christine told me that it was cool if I go to the event but I'll probably skip it as there's the whitehouse event on the 22nd and then Gville a couple of weeks later. I'm looking forward to a "re-match"...

    Gonna try to win? I suspect that you've got a pretty damn good chance at it unless I can get the hatchcrap moving faster :nice: I don't know how long it's been since some of you guys rode with David but I swear to god that he breaks the laws of physics with that Mustang... then again maybe...

    That makes sense. I need to get some additional safety items before doing any track events... probably invest in at least a 4 pt cage/roll bar along with 5 pt harness, oil temp & pressure guages, and a baffled oil pan. After losing my engine at Roebling in January I realized that things can...

    Hey Dan! :D Yeah, I'm hoping to get back to Roebling sometime next year but there's some stuff that I want done to the car safety wise before tracking it... oh, FWIW, I have another new toy! It's a 93 Civic Hatchcrap with the requisite suspension work and an engine swap. Way better...

    Hey Baglock! I haven't been on Stangnet for quite some time but saw your post and thought I'd offer my $0.02 :D There was an article somewhat recently (perhaps in the last year) in Grassroots Motorsports about the rear suspension binding issue in Stangs... if the rear is binding b/c of the...

    There's no "if" about it... the rules are set to allow Mustangs in STX b/c they have under the max of 5.0 liters of displacement with a max tire width of 245 and a minimum treadwear of 140 :nice: STX should turn out to be a fairly fun class at the local level but I suspect that it'll be...

    There should be a decent # of people out for Saturday's Test & Tune... especially since you get more track time at the Test & Tune than at the actual Sunday event :nice: Your tires should make it through tech fine as long as they aren't corded...

    Well, I don't have a Mustang but I'll be coming down to Palm Bay as well. I'm looking for a little bit of seat time before Roebling next weekend :nice:

    very cool :nice: looks like you've already got plenty of stuff on the car and have some more stuff for the suspension waiting to go on... what class does that bump you into on street tires? Can you run STX? edit: just looked on the SCCA website and have some good news for all of you...

    yes... very fun/entertaining "experiment" :nice: btw, ever notice how slow it feels like your car is accelerating when you're running nose to nose with someone else? :p re: your mods... I seem to remember you were having some trouble getting them "approved" through the parental figures...

    I think David may still have his... not sure if he wants to keep them or get rid of them though... cool. Honda's have to be pressed on and off... big PITA. The spindle design pretty much sucks... you've even got to press the spindle out to replace the wheel studs unless you get "inventive"...

    Thanks! Glad to be "back in the game" :nice: hmmm... looks like you haven't been idle int he last year... getting plenty of goodies onto your stang. I guess I'm going to have to start getting some more stuff so I can keep up, eh? I guess if I had the $$ I could go with one of Vortech's...

    yep, I'm back from the dead ;) had to get some stuff taken care of... really wanted a house and thought I was going to have to sell the Type R and buy an older honda hatchcrap to afford it but have dodged that bullet for the time being and get to have both :nice: the fiance thing is new but...

    That looks like a really good deal. NADA value on it is $10,200... is it 4wd or just 2wd? remember though, if a deal seems too good to be true, it probably is :( ;) That just seems like too low of a price unless the guy is trying to unload it for some reason... then again, maybe I'm...
