OFFICIAL 2011 Fords at Carlisle

Begin rant...

I'd just like to mention how worthless the mobile version of stangnet is, I don't know if I'm the only one, but it's pretty annoying when it bumps this thread to the top saying the most recent post was today at 3:14pm then I open the thread and it's the same last post from Feb. 6th...

PLEASE stangnet make the "normal version" button at the bottom actually work ao I can use this site on my iPhone. Private messaging is also impossible from a phone on here...

Rant over.
 
Well, we're sitting a month out from the show now guys. How are everyone's cars coming along? I've talked to Tom but not anybody else. I'm about 90% there right now, just tracking down a TPS signal problem at the moment, then a couple more things and I'll be good to go :nice:
 
i was just talking to Tom yesterday. I haven't done a thing this year with the car. Life has just gotten in the way. work has been crazy busy. My goal is to not introduce any problems this year and just enjoy the weekend. i haven't even brought it out of the garage yet.

Maybe some year I'll wise up and do the same, lol. The show would probably be more enjoyable if I didn't spend the months leading up to it thrashing on the car to get it finished and suitable for a longer drive, lol. After the past couple years, next year my bank account might have to take a break... haha.

Ok Troy i cant see a dam thing with that huge pic, What is the dilema lol.

Anyway I finally pulled the corbeaus out the box after having them custom covered over the winter . The enginebay is down to the block so I better put a step into getting things tied up. I wanted to make atco for the NMRAs but I think thats out as Im nowhere near ready.


This weekend ill get theses back in i hope.

finally got the car started up last night! drove it for gas and seems to be running good with the exception of the right o2 sensor isn't working so its running rich. if thats all that i have to replace i'll be happy. sadly i couldn't drive it much more because its out of inspection :bang:

i think i'm finally getting excited. the bug is starting to bite again! :D

I did the same thing. It has been really crappy weather here since November. Drove it to work last night and had no problems, I think it's the first time since I started storing it for the winter.

To give you guys a heads up. Some idiot thought it would be smart to change the main streets in Carlisle(Hanover and High street) to 1 lane each direction with a bike lane. I have avoided town during the first show this year because of this. Traffic is bad with normal traffic, it is going to be horrible with the car shows in.
 
well i just put another yellow top optima in and the car fired up, so thats a good thing, the trunk is apart so i can add another piece , couple more things and i'll be ready my window sticker showed up today for all 3....
