jeez, what is this, everyone at work ??

Jed... we should order the tickets end of this week, end of next at the latest for the WinterNats. PM or call me anytime and we can work out the details.

Anyone up for a small short cruise or drive-just-to-drive this weekend ??

Good to see your up and typing..I think the majority of us will be up in Vegas this weekend.

Shelby bash for me this weekend!

Ray Man

I'm sure Jed and I could put some little cruise together. Sunday (of course) is best for me.

Dang I canceled my hotel res today for Shelby Bash! Oh well next year! Have fun Steve bring us back some pictures!

habu

Thanks I might have missed the memo, last I heard it was Steve and Jed and I had to back out, when did EVERYONE jump onboard ? Anyone doing any of the track stuff ?

But unfortunately I'm not 100% for driving yet. It's a long story and I "can" drive but there are a few complications. I *hope* by Sunday I'm over this little issue

If I get over my little thing, then I should be OK
If not the following weekend for sure.

Bill, Luis and I are just going to Vegas. We'll probably stop by and check out Steve assuming he's on the track on Friday. Didn't tell you since we knew you'd be out of commission. With that said looks like Luis and I are going to Irwindale Thursday night. If you can you should drop by and shoot the **** with us.

You guys be careful can't wait for the vid!

Posted a little vid from TDO 2010...

Enjoy Jed!

Let me know when you're going to be there, time wise, and I'll come on down. Maybe take some pics/vids of the runs.

Great Vid Jed

LEO_06GT

We plan on being there by 4. If that changes I'll let you know.

Jed-As usual great vid. Thanks for the CPK coupons the Wife and I used them both already.

Superfly SN95

LEO_06GT

Hope to see ya on Friday at the track! ... as long as they let us in for free just to watch.









We actually did invite Brian thru PM and he said most likely not because of the recovery.

Speaking of which, hope you're doing okay Brian!




I think we're all going to ditch the cameras this trip. But, look for random pics via iPhone!

Cool TDO video, feel like I was right there riding shotgun!




I don't think Chris would like to play that version.

After reading through a 2011 thread, the new 5.0 will still come with cast rods and pistons.

So much for slapping on a twin screw and confidently cranking up the boost. Way to go Ford.

habu

Well since I'm just sitting here on my azz, 4 sounds good to me.

I remember one or two of those but don't recall it being related to the Shelby bash, maybe I'm getting old.



so they promote the forged crankshaft and leave the crappy rods/pistons in. that is dumb. But... it saves the owner about 600 bux when they do the bottom end and if the bottom is as decent as ours then it's still good for some boost. But I'd lets someone else be that guinea pig.

Now where is the 05-09 4.6 to 5.0 upgrade kit ?? That would be cool


Luis you still thinking about my wheels ?

TacoBill

The Shelby Bash is just an excuse to go.

If we don't get access to the speedway to watch, no big deal.


Yeah, I don't get Ford's way of thinking. It's almost worth it to tear into the new motor to swap in some forged goodies from the get go.

Superfly SN95

There's also a possibility of drunk calling

We'll see you there

That's what I'm waiting for; should be cool to see someone do that swap.

Wheels have left my mind because I have no money to think of them with

habu

Great !! Is Leo running ?? or just you ?


Wheels, it's no hurry only wondering if I had to start worrying about looking at the alternative or not.

Superfly SN95

The Black Mamba will be taking a couple of runs down Irwindale too

LEO_06GT

I'm running too.
