^ John that looks AWESOME! Love your ride, sir. The Hoosier tires I think compliment your scheme quite well

Hey when are we getting together? Minnesota is but a hop and skip from Iowa. I don't think we're going to MOA anytime soon

 

That gt500 is so damned purty

 

Lookin good!

 

Thanks brotha. It seems like there was always a handful of looky-loos around the car asking questions and snapping pix. Confirmation in my mind I must have made at least a couple good choices!

Hey I’ve been meaning to thank you in part for giving me the courage to correct the paint on her. Between your advice on this website and the videos found on Adams Polishes website I took the plunge a few weeks ago. It’s undoubtedly not as good as the work you do but without question it’s a damnsite better than it was. I learned a lot and the main thing is I didn’t screw anything up. From what I learned I now know I could do it now in far less time and with better results. Pad choices are pretty straight forward but I still need advice on compounds, polishes and waxes. I love the Porter Cable 7424XP I bought! After I finished the paint correction I brought the car to Bravo Protection and had them put 3M Clear Bra on it. Not cheap but paint isn't either!

MOA…P-U!!! Not sure when our paths will cross but I’m sure they will at some point. I’m going back up to Brainerd over Labor Day weekend for the Trans Am Series races on the short course. I’ll be at Deer Valley Speedway south of Rochester on September 13th for the World of Outlaw Sprints, Austin MN playing with airplanes on September 27th and Oktoberfest (For the races) at Lacrosse the first weekend in October. Probably the closest I’ll get to you in CR this year!

John

 

Great looking cars!
Enjoy.

 

I like the new look with the MMD bar. fits with the screen so well

 

Nice find, Darren. Car looks great.

 

never been a big fan of the bar like that. But aint my car.

Still love the look of yours and those quad tips.

 

I like it

 

Looks great!!

 

Looking good sir!

 

More track pics from earlier this week!! It was a blast as always... video posted in a separate thread

 

That last shots nice, with you leading the vette and BMW.

 

Was just out walking the dog when I looked back and snapped this.

 

i'm loving the SGM (on my FX4), it's a beautiful paint. Looking nice.

Attended a car show in Maple Ridge to raise money for MS. HUGE turnout. It overflowed the lots and we took over a few city blocks. I spotted some pro looking photographers very interested in shooting my CF front grills and hood .

Lots of agreement from folks that the stock coyote is juuust fine in a convertible lol



AND this little 3 month old Malamute was my best friend for a couple hours. (thanks to my careless handling of certain food)

How come I never see your car with the conv boot?

 

i did not get that option. No use for it here. My salesman knows me. it would irritate me too much so we deleted it.

 

I thought that the boot was standard on the GT base and Premium.

It sure does clean up the appearance, especially at shows....just my opinion. Mine is on the vast majority of time...car washes and colder, late nite drives home are the exceptions.

 

it may be standard but we deleted it. I live on the 'wet' coast. I also live in the country. Dusty as heck. This car is my summer daily driver so the need to put the top up or down without a 2nd thought is a must. You're the first person to ever ask me about the boot. I've never seen one on a vert here in Vancouver.

 

It was definitely standard on mine...

I have used mine a total of about 5 times on my '06 and the boot for the '13 is still in its package sitting in the trunk... LOL! I think I only used it at a couple car shows and once to drive around... It does clean up the look, but I'm lazy and unless it's going to be on the car all day (like a car show), it's just too much of a hassle... But again, I'm lazy...
