Daryl, Congrats on your 2,000th post Stupid or not it made me laugh.


I'd say Leo's got the donuts down now. He was rocking that thing.

My favorite pic.



Not sure I had talked about the MGW post-install.
Bill was a great help getting it done. He was doing two things at once, Leo's stripe and my MGW and did a brilliant job. I never had to wait or ask what to do next he was on top of everything. THANKS BILL
I know I was about the last, besides Tom and maybe George, to get on the MGW Bandwagon. I wish I had done it earlier. It everything everyone says about it. True it takes a bit away from teh "look" of the hurst and for how it performs I really dont care. It is how a shifter should work.

An auto makes it easier to power brake and do donuts but Leo is turning into an artist with them!

You're very welcome, glad all went well with the install.


As a side note, I hooked up with Bill2 yesterday to go check out a photoshoot spot for us in the future. It's a train museum in Lomita, has some cool back drops!

Yes, he redeemed himself well after his last feeble attempt of a donut (looked more like a cinamon roll! ).

Now we just have to work on George's burnouts...

• I'm glad you like the new shifter Brian. It's always a great pleasure to have something work as advertised.

• Cudos to Bill for opening up his garage for all to tinker. What are your hours Bill?

• Leo, the stripes look terrific! You are becoming the master at Mustang drifting.

• Congrats on your 2,000th post Daryl!

Cool pics, I like the 4-Horsemen Pic !

Thanks for all the on the stripes. I wasn't sure on it myself but now I'm glad I did. The only thing I'm not compeltly sold on is the b/o panel.

I can't believe the pack is 4-0 and with the next to games against bears and redskins we maybe 6-0. Playoffs are defintly happening this year. The way things are going we have a good shot at getting to the NFC championship game. If we were in the AFC I'd say we barely make the playoffs but being since it's the weak NFC the sky's the limit.


Bill-Awesome job on the vid. I need a raw copy of the donut portion.

Brian-Glad you like your new shifter.

Jorge/George- Nice meeting you.

BTW-Ordered Ford pony floor mats, MGW cupholder and the coat hanger kit. There goes LCA money.

Thanks!

I thought I e-mailed you a short mpeg clip of your donut lastnight?

But, then again I was also drinking a Corona, so maybe I didn't.

It's in an industrial area and most all places there are closed on the weekends. There are homes on the other side of the track though which is the reason why we try not to hang around for any length of time.

Well, I went out to start my car to go to class today and all I got was a clicking noise. The radio and air worked fine, but it would just click when I went to start it. When I got home, however, the car started fine. That leads me to believe it's the starter. Anyone have any advice?

Sure...... replace the starter!

OK just kidding, I would suspect the battery more than the starter..... if you got a clicking noise then likely the starter was trying to work but couldn't because it was lacking amperage from the battery. Also your radio and air, etc. would work off the battery's voltage, but amperage is what's needed to start the car.

Leo had a similiar problem around 2 weeks ago. His starter took a crap, got it replaced under warranty.

Maybe Leo will chime in.
