I think I still have my stock one laying around somewhere....

Just in case

I have not had a squeak out of mine... haven't had to grease it either. The roads are crappy here.

So who went to the BCMC meeting last night?

Any word on the rescheduling of the Sunset Showdown?

I was welding that night like a busy bee! I haven't been to a meeting for maybe a year now. Is there a Cafe this month are any of you guys going? I want to see George's Fox and Habu's Bertha. I'll even eat Straw Hat if I have to, okay maybe NOT!

We were all there last month.

They'll be a Cafe on the 28th.

I thought you mentioned Straw Hat makes a decent pie? Almost like Me & Ed's?

That's how our Straw Hat is up here... Pretty close, although lately they haven't been as good, so we have been eating Mountain Mike's Pizza... I need to try Straw Hat again to see if it was a fluke thing or not!

Way to kill his hopes Brian Don't tell him what he needs to know; tell him what he wants to hear

Leo - I think its the swaybars

Be careful Jed, you don't want anyone sneaking you a ruffi (sp?)

I had to update the POTR crew on my new Mustang; today I picked up a 2000 GT

The basic details: Its a 5-speed GT with 74,000 miles. Grey interior with cloth seats (I actually like cloth seats more than the leather for these SN95's) and the Mach 460 sound system - cassette and CD player included

The fun stuff: 18x9 FR500's all the way around, JLT cold air intake, H&R springs and full Bassani exhaust (O/R X and catback)

Leo's already making a mod list

I'm really happy with it! Car rides very smooth and the shifter is world's better than the remote POS - that was my only gripe with the S197's. Funny enough, Lucille squeaks and rattles more than the new Pony It feels slightly slower than a stock S197 but its still torque and I cannot get over the exhaust

There. Cats out of the bag!

Spoiler delete

Yeah, you definitely need to hear it. I finally have the rumble in the exhaust that I've been looking for I wish S197's could sound like this.
