I did have a notch but sold it right away. I've had 4-5 Stangs this last year or so. Notch 5.0, LX 5.0 hatch, and 2 93 Cobras. I'm down to my 04 now. I really want my original 93 thats up in Everett somewhere. I miss that thing.
Whens the track thing and what do I need at minimum?

same here, lets set up a date..i know some good local roads that are very lightly patrolled and almost no traffic at night. If we could get someone at the end of the road with a radio giving us the OK i'm sure we can do this safely..otherwise somewhere between olympia and the coast i'd be happy to meet

I thought we were meeting at the track. Bremerton is open tonight (Friday 8/3/07) or Pacific Raceway on Wednesday the 8th. I am an old guy and member of the community, I cannot risk street racing.

at shelton they said 14.00 or faster and you need an SFI approved(2000 or higher i think) helmet, until you get to 12.50's thats all you need. I'd imagine bremerton is the same way but IDK...i dont want to travel far because i will probably break my car during this run, i snapped the water pump shaft last night somehow...http://vb.foureyedpride.com/showthread.php?t=48755

The helmet is correct. You should be able to borrow one from a friend. During tech, just tell them your car runs 14's and they'll be less strict, but you will need a helmet. Other than that, you will be checked for: a secured battery, all your lug nuts, radiator overflow. You should have a driveshaft loop if you are running traction tires, but, again, just tell them you run 14's.

Its a daily driver and right now my only car. I dont have any of the required gear so the tracks out for me. The nitrous works great but the clutch wont hold the power. Easily puts down 700+rwtq w/ the spray (150 shot). Its pretty sick to watch on the dyno. She takes off like a liter bike when the spray kicks in.
