Hey everyone....Dave referred me here... My name's Brooks...live in Palm Bay. Hopefully I'll be seeing some of you at the track Friday....I plan on going unless something comes up again like it did this past Friday. Got me some new tires to try out! I'd post a pic of my car, but I don't have enough posts to post attachments it says, so....it's a 91 GT, dark red with dark gray lower panels...saleen wing and LX taillights.

Thanks man... God, I cant wait til Friday..I wanna run this thing so bad. Have never run at a strip before...only 1/4 mile time I ever got was in my V6 Camaro, out at "the compound" by Bayside High, with a friend's G-Tech..

I have no idea what it'll do.... I want to see how these new tires are gonna hook up too...I have wicked stiff shocks all around, BUT the back tires are 245 50 16's and the fronts are 225 50 16.....Cooper Cobra ZHP 01's all around...those suckers are so expensive that I feel guilty every time I spin them in the rain!

One of those " Hello. My name is.." stickers maybe..?

Thanks J O S H.



Here is a version I just did in PhotoShop. This is what I would have liked it to look like assuming I had more time... and a lot more black and white pastels.

I didn't see the final results, but I probably took 4th behind that other Camaro with the orange stripes. He had the same tires I did (albeit much larger) -- drag radials on the back and Kumhos up front.

They are going to have an event in Gainesville on the 12th of April that will be using a road course and no cones. Tim is going to that one and I may try to make it too.

I looked at my work schedule and it looks like I don't have that Friday off. I might not want to drive all the way up there just for two nights, but we'll see. (I usually go up on my alternating 3 day weekends to see my girlfriend).

I own the best AutoXer in GRM MAg.

GrassRoots Motorsports did a three way comparo, between a 60's JAG, Porshe. And my Honda Oddessy Minivan, and yes the Van kicked there ASSes. can't beat autoXing and watching a DVD at the same time. on a 50sec track the honda won by 4 SEC.


Its a great read, pick it up at any rack.


I'm thinking about bringing the Van out to an autoX soon, i wonder how many cars i will beat. eric, I'll be hunting for yellow stang with my tight autoXer van.

Why the hell is the blue one 100 bucks versus the other three thats 75? Thats is a trick piece tho.At least they are easy to hook up on the 99 up stangs.Might need to get one now.I want the blue sense all my lights inside are gonna be blue but at 100 bucks that is just gonna wait.Besides I dont need no stinking shift light to know when to shift.I can tell by ear anyways.

I don't know why the blue is more. I guess because it looks better. I do know they are really fast with shipping them out.

Yeah, it's puzzled me as well. Doesn't seem like it should be anymore than the others. Oh well. Can't wait for it to get here.

Joholder, did you install it yourself? How hard was it?
