Yeah,...stay away from the spray. Never been a fan of it myself.
That E85 works wonders with these engines. That's some killer power and torque numbers there. ENJOY!

Gave my brother a ride in the Roush today since he has never been along for a ride in it. Had a blast as the shifter was cooperating with me and allowing red line 1-2-3 shifts. Scared the **** out of him when I rolled into WOT in 2nd and back end stepped way out of line. Didn't get a chance to really open her up though.

Good god I love this car.

Tomorrow I have my first show in Charlotte to attend since I moved. Might do the autocross depending on conditions (no traction means just ripping up the tires and terrible times) but I'll probably skip that for the chance to run on the Speedway. Pretty sure they will be escorted laps with a pace car but there should be room to let her rip. No way I'm going to do their reccomended 60mph on the speedway

Took the girlfriend's Shelby to dinner tonight, I drove.
I now want 600+ ft-lbs of torque at the tires, lol

Those rear tires have no chance ... even DR's ...

Installed my new Amsoil blue air filter... the gave her a light polish with my Flex/white/gray pads, and CG V36 and 38. Coated with Blackfire then Supernatural. Need to keep her paint perfect and swirl free before storage soon. Then took her out for a drive... Probably my last photoshoot with her this year. I'll just post a few now, then more throughout winter...that way I have something to remember her by. lol. Stupid winter. Enjoy. Kona Blue FTW.

Went to see her while she's at the plastic surgeon's. They got her new hood, new front bumper and the rear bumper all repainted up and hung on her.

I can't wait to get her back. Spoiler's being redone due to a run they said, and a couple of other issues, but Soon(tm) she'll be back on the streets and lookin' better than ever.

So I didn't actually do anything *with* her, technically, but hey. It still counts, in my book, so there.
