Shoot Ben, I went down the track 20 times at the first track rental- of which I've been to 3 now. With 3 different setups, I might add. Want me to scan the timeslips? 
And if you want to bring dyno numbers up, well....... I think I got you beat there too.
Ah, I love getting you old guys riled up..... seems like just last week we were all picking on each other. Oh wait, we were!

You know Freud might have said your wish for the big power could be a replacment for lack of power elsewhere. Or maybe it's just that since you are so much younger than us old guys, you still belong to the more money than brains club. Things that make you go, HMMMM Now let's go back to the 1-5% loss for the 4:10's, If we add that into your numbers do we need Mapquest to find out how to get to Boomtown or should we just follow you.
Gee with that many trips down the track I would have expected better shifting from the Brenspeed poster child.

Guess sometime when I get home maybe we can hook up for lunch and swap Stang Stories!! Getting ready to buy a house on ten acres near Pittsboro-hello custom garage!!! Girlfriend is always asking-"But why do you have to have a garage with 12 bays that is 80 feet deep with 2 doors being 15 feet tall???" I love her dearly but sometimes she just doesn't have a clue.

Welcome Anthony,
Jump in on here and tell us some more about your cars. Mostly old men and a couple of snot nosed kids hanging around most of the time.

And as the track goes, shifting is not a problem- traction is.
Anyway, just to clarify- as I'm typing this, I have a big smile on my face..... it's nothing more than two dudes picking on each other.
OK-this is weird-born the same year-but 3 months apart-and we both live in Indy.

[quote=tom281;1111780]There's been many more engine failures from nitrous than Saleen blowers.... maybe that's why you're timid about using yours.
And as the track goes, shifting is not a problem- traction is.
Actually, even when I was talking to them about a blower I ask if it could be detuned to make sure it did not get hurt that way eithe.
Smiling here too.

I have to admit that my wife had a lot to do with the color of my Stang. And she had all the correct reasoning. Since I wanted a Vert it was logical to get the white with the parchment top/ interior to keep the car as cool as possible. The color combination grew on me pretty quick. I really do like it. But at the time my first choice would have been Redfire with a black interior. And I would have had to sit on an adult diaper to absorb all the sweat! So for once I listened to her and made the correct choice.
Still got that bad taste from you lemonade?
