Couple of things from MossMustangs. I digging the seat back lever.


These from UPR slide over the stock handles.


Full fender and rad cover protection


For Vegas. Shelby poker chip set.


Rear emblem from UPR. I'd consider if it were a circle and not an oval.

Can't wait til the day I see these at a car show. Maybe we can convince Charlie to get them.


Check out Tom2's car on the Brenspeed page.

I like the FRPP fender covers.. but it'll be hard to retire the Pocohantis cover.

Seatback levers look good, but I'll keep my MGWs.

haha, the pocohantis cover


with times that consistent, it should be apparent when you put the headers on, any idea on the horsepower gains?

that GT seat handle is awsome looking

I've read the shorties only give you 5-10hp. I guess we'll see what that equates to on the track.

Congrats Leo that's a great time. How were your 60' times ? Isn't this your first 12.
Read on SCS that some bug went up in flames in the staging area, did you catch that... what happened ?


The FRPP or normal fender covers don't what work well with our cars. Since there isn't much of a gap between the fender and shock tower there isn't much to hang over, into the engine bay, and keep the cover on the car.

I have one in my garage and have tried to use it a couple times to no avail.

60ft's were still 1.9's. Yup it's my first 12. Yeah it was in the staging lanes and just went up in flames. I was in the pits at the time swapping out tires to go home. It burned for a good amount of time before it was put out so I'm sure that cars pretty much done.

I had a feeling, seeing Jed's new set never on his fenders.

Speaking of Jed, anyone heard from him? Last seen bar hopping Friday night and getting hammered. Oh yeah, I was there too!

That's a Funny pic.


1.9s, not bad but I bet you'd have a much better 60' at Barona. My goal is still to make it out there, we'll see though.

Spent yesterday cooking and winning First place in a chili cookoff that one of the people at work throws each year. It was my first cookoff.

Thanks dude. I was really surprised.


I'll go, it's the day after my b-day so why not ? I am really, honestly trying to get the sh t together so I can race. Moving isn't helping though, along with a couple other things. Even if I can't race I'll go out there.


BTW, The Dark Knight kick some serious ***.

Nope.. Luis couldn't hang Friday night.

Drank Night is right, I was GOOONE that night.

btw, congrats on the chili cook-off!

Heard Jed makes a mean chili too. Might have to be a POTR chili cook-off!

I keep getting behind in all the post. Saw Dark Knight myself yesterday. Its great, has a different feel over the last Batman movie.

What rims are these? (below) Starting to do some rim hunting for my big brake kit (no idea which one?)

EDIT: Actually I found my answer. Wonder if this style would go well with my car.
