    TrueTrac or Locker?

    Go with the tru-trac, lockers have bad road manors in turns as they pop and jerk. Lockers are also terrible on ice and in snow.

    It's funning watching all these guy's fall all over them selves because there's a young lady on here. I didn't get this kind of welcome and I have the same car as Heather, whats up with that ha ha? I hope these guy's never line up against you at the track, they'll be distracted and loose for...

    Your looks just like mine, I have an 07 GT/CS in red fire. I'm swapping out the black stripes for gold, black just doesn't get it on red. Then I'm going to do a full gold stripe kit from bumper to bumper as well. Glad to have you, enjoy the site.

    Going to buy a 2010 Camaro

    Newest engine my butt, no one leaves the engines a lone anyway. If it has 300 hp, we would want 400 hp, if it had 400, we would want 500. This new engine thing is a mental hang up. Throw on a super charger and you will have a new engine. There's a lot of R&D going into the 3 valve 4.6 and will...

    Just bought a new 'Stang and very PO'd

    Yep, I don't care if it's a V-6 or GT, the full stripe kit looks cool. I agree with a lot of these guy's, the stripe's your getting aren't acceptable. For the price of a new stang, you should get what you want, get it done right the first time. Dealer agreed to give you stripes, so your the one...

    Just Picked Up the New Stang!

    "GOOD DEAL", and welcome to the world of the retro stang. The S-197 is built on the linclon LS plateform, so it would be refined to a large extent. These cars are very smooth, there even a pleasure to drive when your feeling lazy and not performance minded.

    Went to the track again

    Yeah and don't be afraid to red light a few times, it's only practice and you don't want to get caught napping at the tree. Races are won and lost right there at the line. You'll be in the low 13's once you get the RT worked out. Like I say, cut the light so close you may red light a few times...

    Just had my track weekend...FUN! And some scary parts.

    "YIKES", all fast and the furious crowd, that had to suck. I guess you didn't have a lot to talk about with your fellow racers. You should of had a feild day with the 90% of them that you could out run. There's some fast ones, but the average seems to be somewhere in the 14's for these guy's...

    Pinks will be here at Norwalk in june, I can't wait, I love that show. It got me back into racing and back into a stang. At the end of the day is when they do the title matches.

    New GUY HERE

    I would buy new, you get a much better interest rate, a great warrenty and you get more of a choice in the matter as far as color, options and what have you. Plus you know it hasn't had the dog water run out of it unless I test drove it at some point hee hee. When your laying down that kind of...

    New GUY HERE

    Get your intake and tune at the same time, you can get a round 30 hp with the intake and tune combo. I perfer bama chips, but there others as well. That alone should smoke your cobra. The bama programer will get rid of any throttle lag you may have from the drive by wire set up. Gears really...

    NO to off brand batteries

    I've had several new cars over the years and the motorcraft batteries last 5-7 years, it's an awesome battery. Those of you who say MC suck must be kiiling them or something, cause they work great for years.

    which emblem do you like, if any?

    I have the GT/CS, there's no emblems to worry about. However, it dose need a color change, fire red with black stripes doesn't get it, it needs gold or white.

    Gas Prices

    George W has said for years that we need to drill, the other side say's no. We have alot of oil just setting under ground. Columbia has just discovered a large oil reserve and there not in opec. Between us, columbia, canada and mexico, we shouldn't need a drop from opec, but we need to drill...

    Return of the 5.0 Mustang

    Maybe not 50 cents a gallon, but alternitive fuels will bring down the price of gas to be competetive with other forms of energy thats available. The combustion engine isn't going anywhere in our life time, it just will no longer be the only engine. Oil has been the only game in town, but not...

    So...what you gettin with your stimulus check?

    Kooldawg6, you will actually be earning interest off of your own money as it's just some of yours comming back to you, but I know what you mean. I got the bug for another jeep, so I'll take mine, steal my wifes, plus put a little more with it and go YJ hunting. I've had TJ's, CJ's and willys...

    4:10 gears a bit tall?

    I'm running 4:30's and at times wished I would of gotten 4:56's except when I pull into the gas station ha ha. Really the 4:30's hasn't effected my mpg that much. I don't do a lot of interstate driving, I live and work in the country, so it gets a steady diet of country roads and small town...

    Thinking about some modifications...

    I would hold off on cams as ford racing is developing a set thats good for 30 hp on stock heads, 75 on ported heads, stock springs and no lose of mid range. Last I heard there were 2 sets being tested and sound promising.

    Thoughts/experience with BamaChips XCalibrator?

    Sometimes the e-mails take awhile as he is very busy this time of year as it's drag race season and he personally answers them.
