Any guesses?

I realized that I was spending too much $$$ on the Stang recently and was neglecting my personal needs. So, I got something cool for me.
Maybe a Steadycam Jr?

Playstation 3?

60 inch Plasma?


Ohhhh do tell!

What's missing, about this picture?

Okay Bill since you have us on the end of the toilet seat on what you bought. I thought I would tease you as well.

Brian (Habu) feel free to feedback.

Congrats on the successful ds install Bill. And congrats on the new Iphone.

Mike forgot to say something earlier but nice pics of your car.

Tom welcome back.

Brian/Bill-Since neither of you are going to QMX there's no excuses why you can't come down for race legal sept 21st.

FYI-It's almost set in stone the my new custom plate will be Leo6gt.

We have a winner! It's Leo.

Got the 8 gig model. With unlimited internet browsing, I'll have TMS access while on the go!

Thanks Leo. I'm sooo relieved that the new driveshaft is vibration free!

Ready to get spanked in September?

Nice choice on the plate.

let's see if I can catch up....

Tom sucks to hear about the battery. I've seen the multiple thread and had counted on using an optima once the Ford Battery died. Seems as if that's not the solution. IMO it's really dumb to build a car that needs a battery charger if you don't drive it every day. Since mine is a DD hopefully it isn't as bad for me.


Bill Where to start ?? First GREAT NEWS about the DS. Although I had no doubts that your shim would work as well as zero problems with the replaced unit. I may have missed but did you say what you thought the buttometer felt like. Does it seem quicker apart from the quicker rev ?

iPhone Luckily my plan is up in October so maybe, just maybe I might be able to get one(or more mods)

Bill2 well ok, it can be done. Day-um if it wasn't done. Nice choice, I'll have to try a little harder next time.

Leo on the license plate. Street Drags ?? I may wait until I have a couple things first. Mainly the MGW so I don't miss shifts. We'll see.

After playing around with the iPhone for a day, this thing is amazing!

Already loaded 2 DVD's (thanks Bill2 for one of them ), bunch of pics and songs. What's cool is that it monitors my e-mail and notifies me of any new messages and constantly updates my widgets. Internet access is via wi-fi, but if one isn't available, it automatically switches to the AT&T connection.

Brian- Web browser is powered by Safari and all web content is displayed as you see it on your iBook. How cool is that?

And yes, TMS is already bookmarked.


On the Mustang front, I'm done with my Part 2 of my first Mustang video. I'll upload it tonight up on YouTube.
Incase anyone missed it, here's Part 1 .

ah yes Safari... it's good but I use Camino, which is like the firefox for mac. Still Safari is really good. I played with on @ the apple store in Brea and to surf the web on it is really cool. Much better than I thought. I even tried to get a map to Chula Vista, just before I went to Qualcomm for the drags, and it or I missed keys really badly xhula vidts or something similar... anyway it figured out I meant Chula Vista and got the map perfectly. I was really impressed.

There is already a couple apps out for the iPhone, TUAW.com, I think has one.
it's a real slick device. I'd love to have one for a week or so and just get the feel for it. God knows I hate the cell phone I have



On to Mustang bidness.

I think pullies or the quest for them is back on. The TMS guy that had them and then didn't... well I guess the sale didn't go through and now he asked if I'm interested. Since it's a year or so out b-4 I get whippled I think I'm pulling the trigger on this, 130 for the Steeda set. Maybe I can reclaim some of the HP that I miss so much when I put the cats back on. Looks like I get to work on my car after all this weekend.

OK for the moment. If anything I might just clear coat them, something I failed to do, and leave them for the next couple of weeks. I didn't expect to buy the pullies, if it happens, and I'm using the rocker panel mod money for the pullies. It's one of those things, ya know ? They looked horrendous off the car then on the car it was hard to tell that there was a problem so a little of the pressure to replace them NOW is off of me somewhat.

It will be a nagging thing though. I'll know it's there and cringe everytime I wash the car.


Speaking of news.. I gotta take new pics for you guys. The blackout panel is off and I have to get some goo gone to remove what's left of the adhesive. Man does it look different.
