I'm about 95% sure I'll be there(just to look), but still not sure what time I'll be heading over that way. As for directions, head out Hwy 50 past Speedworld, make a left at Alafaya Trail(it's a few miles past the track, can't remember how many lights) I think the town is called Union Park. Follow Alafaya for about a mile, less I think. The Waterford Lakes Towne Center is on the left, you won't miss it.....It's pretty big, plus there was a steady stream of Fords(that looked out of place for mall traffic) heading into it last year. Hopefully it won't rain this year:rolleyes:

Just wondering, with all the pine pollen, wouldn't everyone be able to register their car as yellow? :shrug: :lol:
 
Well, I just got back from doing a thorough inspection of my rear suspension on the LX. I had some serious handling problems on Wednesday night. The car was all over the place, could not keep it straight. On my 4th and last run I lost it. Went sidewaya at over 100 mph. Really messed up my tires too.
 
No, it can't be the bushings, I don't have any. Here is a link to a post on The Corral drag racing forum about my problem with a link to pictures of the torque boxes. I was suspecting I might have started pulling out the boxes but they all looked good.

Well, I guess then that bushing breakdown isn't an issue and you're right. The tq boxes look fine. That's a weird one. Wish I could help Glenn, but not really being able to look at as a system, I'd just be throwing out random ideas that you've probably already considerred and dismissed. :(
 
I'm wondering if it isn't something to do with the track at OSW. I have run at Beech Bend Raceway in Bowling Green Ky. in July and Moroso back in October and the car tracked straight as an arrow. In November I was at OSW and it was the same crap, only I didn't lose it. The only time I have ever had problems was at OSW.

Maybe I will take it over to Bradenton and see how it drives there, after I replace the front runners that is. I just don't know what else to do.
 
Heres some pics of my dads new toy. Only has 8600 miles on it.

so I got another estimate at this place called Mike's , off of Sarno near the new porno shop. They want more than Ford does: $1,113 and change. I don't know where they get 400 more dollars from, but hey, I ain't payin' for it.
Just hope I atleast get a few hundred for it.

I have an idea for a place to meet. It's on US1, it's called Pineda Inn. They have outdoor seating, sometimes a band, and excellent food.

Is it me, or does the Bama Mafia guys and the couple people from the Tampa area need 6 million threads to communicate with each other? Oh well...I'll find out.
 
Sweet car, Flash. :nice:

DG, i'd like to hear more about this new porno shop. :jester:

I think we've talked about the Pineda Inn before. Can't remember what the problem with it was, though. But if it'll work, I'd be for it. :)
