    best way to get rid of spiders in and underneath the car?

    Sell the car. ;) In other critter nightmare stories...my buddy owned his shiny new red Mazda RX8 all of 7 weeks when he came out one day and tried to start it and got odd clicking sounds and a flash. Then warning lights and a nasty smell. Turns out mice and taken up in the car and...

    2010 Rear End Poll

    That Saleen rear end is interesting looking and even a tad cool. But it doesn't look like a Mustang now. The entire car looks like some Lexus/Acura/Muscle car blend.

    Charge motion plates - why?

    Because Ford thought it would be cool to have your car shudder/tug every time it hit 3000rpms. :)

    Radar Detectors Are Now Worthless

    He doesn't even need to hit you with radar. There are set proceedures for just pacing you to determine speed as well. He can hit with a "Over 75/85mph" type of ticket, a Max Speed Violation without any radar/laser. His slip might have been that he fired off the gun and it returned a number...

    Radar Detectors Are Now Worthless

    Qs rules for Speeding with or without a detector. The issue is people think they can just drop a detector in their car and not do anything else. "Speeding" requires many things on your end to be done "properly". There are many ways to protect yourself even without a detector. 1. Awareness...

    Shelby Razors - where to get?

    Sadly it looks like Shelby and American Racing are slowly discontinuing the sexy line sof wheels they've had since 2007. Tirerack is nearly dried up and less and less are on Ebay. Razors and Torque Thrusts especially. And now with the new Shelby's released using the knock-off Ford GT wheels...

    Shelby unleashed six new cars! Sort of...

    Shelby unleashed six new cars! Sort of...

    Well I'll be...I have to say the blue GT/SR looks pretty bad ass. And finally at a price that's not stupid.

    Edelbrock supercharger?!!?

    WHEN THE HELL DID THIS COME OUT???? I never would have thought Edelbrock would make their own! I mean is it really their own or is it some rebadge? And what does this thing do on stock internals and the default tune? :jaw:

    2010 Mirrors

    Yes, I am talking about the 2005-2009 compared to the 2010 steering wheel.

    2010 Mirrors

    I like the new mirrors but I'd still spend money on the GT500/Bullitt steering wheel over the 2010s wheel. It's just too ricey looking honestly. One of many things I don't like about the 2010, heh.

    2010 Rear End Poll

    Glad you're happy but it doesn't change that the rear end is a catastrophy. :D And although I prefer some of the "materials" in the new 2010, I like the layout and design of the previous far better. It's more Mustang and less generic.

    SoCal Track day at Buttonwillow?

    Glad you made it! I was sitting at work all weekend in the end. A W E S O M E. I am killing everyone in order to go to the next Autoclub Speedway event. I might do big track at Willow though. I wanna talk to this GUY. He says he's running STREET tires, but I don't know. Maybe RE-01s or...

    What would you get? 07 Saleen s/c or 07 GT500

    You can lop 250lbs off the front of a GT500 by switching the front suspension setup out for a Griggs SLA. :) That pretty much brings the weight bias back inline with the standard GT(Saleen).

    Issues with the 2010 interior. Some really DUH ones too.

    having rid in the car the chrome trim on the square vents is the issue. Not the rounds. But that's about the only real counter I can offer.

    2010 Rear End Poll

    I've seen and been in plenty. Nothing changes that rear end's ugliness. Yes, the rest of the car looks great! Just let a friend put the groceries in the trunk so you don't have to look at it. And man, that trunk badge! IT'S HUUUUGE!! What the hell! In all my complaing about the rear ends...

    Issues with the 2010 interior. Some really DUH ones too.

    So my buddy drove around one for only a week and encountered two pretty serious ones. He popped the trunk FIVE TIMES while reaching down for the shifter. The trunk pop button is right there. The redesign of the vents causes a really bad glare from the sun right in to your eyes. And the...

    2010 Rear End Poll

    The rear end is hideous. I reallly, really, hope Ford can redo this for 2011, fast turn around on the stamping machines or whatever. It's been done before. Admit fail, move on. The poll pretty much confirms that too. Other sites with the same poll have also shown the fan base general dislike...
