    Ridiculous race - I lost bad...really bad.

    +1 im guessing its an expression for a top fuel dragster/funny car/etc. so he went 175 at the 1/8 and 135 at the 1/4 mile mark? did he shut down half track?

    Used some tuch up paint (PICS)

    i cant tell what you did. i need to see before and after pics at least showing the same area at the same angle. did you seriously paint in COBRA in the rear? a black sharpie would probably be sufficient

    3650 famous 1/2

    RP is great but after a while it must break down or something, my tranny was quiet and smooth for the first 1000 or so miles then it always went back to its standard 3650 noises and such. however mobil1 didnt seem to cure any of those issues that the RP covered up for a short time so i dunno. i...

    fastest 03 cobra?

    mine has 62k on it right now. shes just getting worked in! i think 200K on a termi is a record. Modulars hold up well, just look at the crown vic's service record in most taxi companies.

    RECOMMENDED SHOP IN THE BAY AREA??

    Thanks for totally raping the English language there. I'd rather have a decent and safe tune done by a competent tuner than let the hackjobs at SpeedFreaks touch any of my cars.

    how much will 18" wheels slow me down?

    unless you are a big time autox/road course'r, you wont notice the weight difference. now if you had a fully gutted CRX and went from some super-light rims to some heavy chrome ones, then yeah you would totally be able to notice a difference. in a 3600lb mustang, you wont unless you are...

    RECOMMENDED SHOP IN THE BAY AREA??

    do NOT go to speedfreaks. they are mediocre tuners and continually push their customers cars for the sake of being able to say what numbers they can make, so basically your car will become their shop bitch/bragging bitch. i could go more into detail but i wont, you could do a search and find...

    How to beat a LS1

    thats cause they know whats up. heres a breakdown, a SS or WS6 is the top level of Fbody. they usually compare those to a GT or Mach1, which are the mid-level Mustang. when they compare apples to at least oranges, or in this case the top-level cars, its obvious they are outclassed, when...

    Did any of you guys dress up your DD's?

    my 03 is my DD and its about as dressed up as its ever gonna get. if i had something else as a DD that would mean the Cobra wasnt, which would mean the Cobra would be getting the attention/funds and the DD would just become my mon-fri commute :taco: at that point.

    Smog in Cali

    as long as you are tuned and have the factory midpipe installed you will usually pass with flying colors. if the tune is off, or if you have even high-flow cats, you will likely fail. even if the tune is perfect and you have high-flows, still probably fail, two high-flow cats for legal...

    Did u ever get a DAM ticket?

    agreed 100% he pulled you over because you drive a nice car, and he doesnt, or did not at your age. if you were an old man, he would not have looked twice. if you were a 12 year old driving a minivan, again, no second look. young male in a mustang? oh yes, easy target. my two only speeding...

    sure, if their 99+ was blown, crashed, or had 200k+ on the clock and they want to really get into a 96-98 body style.
