That's because Hawk was going to shut us down if we continued running this thread like we did. Since we don't want that, we've slowed down immensly. We just want the thread to stay open and active.

The 4.3 S-series does 17-19 seconds in the 1/4.

Sweet, so are you going to keep the 2.3 for a v8 swap or sell it? Bring it out to the track sometime! Don't forget if you drag race it you have to auto-x it too.

On another note...where's the ol' man? Baglock doesn't seem to post his wit anymore. Did I miss something while I was away?

I finally got to drive it today and I have a small exhaust leak but that's no big deal. It feels good to drive my own car again though, my grandma 89 accord is pretty slow.

Well, I just found out today, 1 day before going over to Tampa for braces, that the whole surgery thing will cost...//drum roll, please\\...$31,000. Nearly enough to buy a new 2003 Cobra, or put me through college. So, I guess I won't be getting surgery as soon as I thought. The other two doctors who do this kind of stuff are in JAX and Miami. I guess we'll see what happens, but I want this thing done!

I was away from the computer for 4 days.

On a side note, I got Getaway in Stockholm finally. No. 2 is much better than 1 :laugh: . Both the Supra and the Cosworth Escort runnin' from the po-po . The wife doesn't know this yet, but I'm intrigued by the idea of a "Getaway in Melbourne" . Anybody got a video cam they'll loan me?

And on another side note, I don't think F Stock is going to be holding me much longer. Tomorrow I'm calling maximum motorsports. I haven't decided if I'm just going to order the one or two things (I'm keeping the secret for the time being ) or say screw it and bust the UPS guys back with a $2300 pile of twisted steel and sex appeal. I guess I'll get whatever order comes out of my mouth . If that last race hadn't been rained out, the sickness probably wouldn't have been this bad this month.

Awesome White! If I recall, those V6 Vortech's respond exceptionally well to freeing up the exhaust and intake tract

I got pulled over last Friday night for drag racing a Camaro in my RX-7. I thought for a split second about taking off from the cop. I had about a 1/8 mile headstart on him. He didn't have my tag # yet. I thought about it. I know after a few turns he would have been toast.

Burn that onto a CD for me I want to see it. I have the first one. I wanted to see more popo action.

Being in the RX-7, I don't know if I would have been able to resist. Gee, do you think you could out corner a Crown Vic ?

I don't have a DVD player on the com and although I've been tempted, I haven't got a DVD burner either. Unless someone's got one up here, next time I see you I'll just let you borrow it and burn a copy.

I don't know about that. Running from the paddy wagon means dodging spike strips. Running from the hood means dodging bullets and MD 20/20 bottles .

Research, research, research... With that said, I would go with Borla or Bassani. I tend to like the high end systems (read expensive ) just because you get what you pay for. It isn't just noise like flows do to a stang (no offense to the flowmaster owners in the room ) but clean, beautiful sound.
