Haha, that was a joke at the fact that I drive an ATX Zetec, so I'll probably (figurativly speaking) myself first time I get to ride in an SVT.

Wait til you go in a 3L one...then a turbo one....the list keeps getting better and better.

Until, in the end, you get back to Zetecs because its much easier to get traction with the torque band of a 4 cylinder. Just you guys wait, I bet someone will build a turbo 4cyl with trans and everything, that will run in the 12s or less.

Ok well I will be renting a trailer for sz, all the places around here want more than I wanna spend for one. I will either rent one or look on craigslist for one. I wanted one for around $1,200 or under

It doesn't have as much to do with the motor as it does the platform.

As i try to do every year, i've got some things in mind that i haven't seen done before, and since there are now a few people rocking mods i've done in past years, i think i'll be re-working some of those as well.

Commitments, damn and I thought you were a pimp, just be straight with them, tell them hey I am broke, I am NOT gonna buy you any drinks or take you anywhere nice. Its the $1.00 menu at mcdonalds and hot nasty lovin:laugh:

 

[rouar]

On the list, so far
- alignment / wheel balance
- fix passenger side speaker connection
- oil change, belt change
- replace trunk struts (ordered last week)

got the alignment and new tires, didnt' help my vibration problem, so I need to look further into that before driving the car long distance. I have such little desire to pour money into cars right now.

I did buy a new stereo and wiring, tested it out and it sounds great, just need to install fully. Also figured out my washer fluid issue, though I may want to replace the Autozone sprayers with something better.

The rest of the list still exists.

 

[dTour]

1. Fix my banged up fender/mirror/door
2. Get the stereo done (so I can jam all the way there!)
3. Get some wheels on
4. Buff, buff, polish, and do it some more.....
5. That dang wheel bearing!?!?!?!
