I just went to my local FRPP speed shop and ordered a shifter. Two weeks later I picked it up (last saturday). No problem there. bb

Yeah man, that's a good result. you should be proud of yourself. Regarding the bubble, send me a PM with your email and I can give you some pics of Saleen doing it to mine as a new car and pics/dimensions of the finished product. It's a very clean job - not sure how far from Saleen you are, but...

Good to see the hamster back in action. It would be the best show out there -- if it was available on TV here.

It's no wonder that insuring one of these things costs a fortune.

Jeff, who knew you could turn a wrench? And the little yellow highlights are pretty cool too. I'm impressed. I had to order one just on your endorsement. Now get that thing over hear and let me see it! Bruce

I've always wondered about this, being an airplane guy. I've done some research and can conclude that I think this is one of the more commonly perpetuated urban legends of the race track and street. It seems like it makes sense, but the science behind it is not there. Remember, air is what, 78%...

wax it all - it will help you clean it. There's no reason not to wax or apply an acrylic sealant product to the film. If you track it, the rubber will come off much easier too not to mention the bugs. Wax on, wax off.

what he said. I bought my 24' wells cargo slightly used and set up for a mustang. I put my cobra r in it and the tongue drug, handled like crap. I moved the car back to take weight off of the tongue and life was good.

sounds great, too far north for me, but have fun Bruce

I talked to Ed on the phone awhile back and now I missed all of this. Ooops. You snooze, you lose. I'm looking for manuals, a front optional wheel, splitter too Bruce

I bought a set on "standard" wheels and then my dealer dropped 10 wheels/tires in my lap :biggrin , soooo, I have a set of new in the box standard wheels available. $1,900 plus shipping and they're yours. BTW, they're very close in weight to the "optional" wheels of which I could use one good...

jkgt - are these yours or anyone else here?

Just think of the things you'd get done . . . if you only had the kind of time that guy must have!

Have a track club weekend at Road America or combine it with another event, say a Shelby club event coming up at Road America, for example. Get your guys to come up for the weekend and then leave your cars with them afterwards for upgrades. Something like that might be fun for everyone. bb

I did the exhaust myself. Not a big deal at all. The pulley/tune business is not on my radar. I don't see tweaking the thing in that dept but you might try Anderson Ford in Clinton, IL - they're big into that stuff though I don't know if they've seen too many GT's. Bruce

I'll split the difference with you guys re: location -- in central IL. Got it out with the new Accufab exhaust. Actually, the first time I've really driven it since buying it in Jan. The car is ridiculous in a great way; a real treat for all the senses without excuses. The attention it gets is...

Your boy is gonna love that thing. Looks like he will enjoy your toys too some day! I remember my 15 mo old girl clearly annunciating "geee teeee" after only a small amount of leading by me. I was so proud. Aren't kids great?

Why not just put a polyurethane strip on it? edit: aka "clear bra" type material

For sure.

:lol No question DBK has summarized the risks of putting a cage in a street car. I think it's necessary information to put out there for those who might not have considered the impact (no pun intended) of putting a cage in a primarily street driven car. I have a mustang that has a full cage...
