I Think a mustang wants freedom.

¿que?

[bugman1964]

looks like a fox body mustang buried under a pile of stuff behind your car.

The door handle is a tip off that it''s not a Fox Mustang. They don't have the key hole lined up with the door handle.

I'd guess it's an Audi hatchback or old VW 3 door.

Which car are you guys talking about guessing what it is??

The car with the fender flares on it is a mid - late 70s Caramo.

$100 amex card back when you buy (4) RE11's at tirerack right now. (ordered a set for the maita this morning )

Got 'em yesterday. What is it about receiving tires from the brown truck that's so friggin awesome? Street tires, R-comps, truck tires....doesn't matter.

Oh, I never even saw a car there until you said something.

That looks like the old Capri did or maybe the Dodge Charger, which was a fancy Omni, looking thing.

I'm sure it is a Duesenburg SJ, should we start the bids at $500,000?

Ding! It's a Corrado (but not mine).

1981 to be exact.

I have a set coming in too, should be here before the end of the month, bit of a delay on them when I ordered.

[bugman1964]

some want to buy me some R comps?

[Claff]

My RE11s showed up today. Probably won't get them mounted up till next week since I want to clean up the wheels they'll be going on first.

[evolicious]

Foot note if anybody's interested.

My car is now "moveable". Just waiting for the body work to get done.

What's it being built for? Road race, autoX, vintage? Looks, well, substantial.

Claff, re-read after you get some sleep. Your mixied up.

Looks like it prepped for Gumball rally to me

Where's that dude with the mustache when you need him? lol

That's it, no more 3AM posts.

Still kinda curious as to what's in the cards for the Camaro.

[ButtDyno]

I attribute my slow times to not having enough stickers on my car. Next time I'll keep in mind to put more tape on my car (and learn to find a better line.)

Is the GO!!!!! a tribute to Mikko Hirvonen?

Close but not quite, I'm actually a Sebastien Loeb fan

You know the story behind that, right?

[ButtDyno]

hahaha I was just about to post that pic... I don't think I've seen that much rear wheel lift before.

Many more here

Full SCCA C-Prepared build. Custom front suspension, home made 3-link rear, 550-600hp NA SBC, 3 or 4 speed manual, lots 'o' tire, fiberglass everything, etc.

Three on the tree ?
Can that handle a 600 HP small block?

hehe. Are you talking about a 3 speed auto, manual shift? I don't know much about Chevy's, but I know GM makes the best automatic transmissions around.

We used to have a regular competitor that ran a 3rd generation (mid 80s) Camaro and was very competitive, close to FTD. It was fun to watch him hang the tail out, flying around the course.

Most likely going to be a Muncie manual 4-speed with fourth gear removed (who needs it anyway?). I have to see, since rear gearing will be around 4.8X with a 27" tall tire.

Hopefully if you autocross this thing, you wont come across some narrow gates. It'll wind up a mandatory +1 from that stance =P
