Hey all, this is the SHO guy. Just wanted to say how much fun I had guiding you all through our wonderful road trip Saturday. Felt out of place with the big Taurus, and a little envious of how well those little Tours handle :), but had much fun. Hope to see some of you during the SHO Convention when we will be doing the entire tour. Now that you are familar with the road, I have a feeling my place at the front will be endangered  Later.

Nothing beats the little black Honda leading eight SVT's or so through the streets of Dallas.  That was like in January or something...

I had a blast, folks. I want to thank all that participated and helped to make this Saturday a good one (apart from the Lincoln that wanted to play bumper cars with me).
It was a pleasure meeting everyone!

It was a pleasure. We need to do another one when I get the long-tube headers back and I get my Vortex Rammer intake in the C5 (the folks at West Coast Corvette still haven't shipped it  ). With a head and cam package I'm looking into, 420HP/410TQ will hopefully be on tap before too long  . I REALLY dug the gauge pods! It's motivated me to get my gauges on order. Be careful with the Mustang Cobra killer!

i would love to take another ride when the vortex and headers are installed. i still cant get over the power it just keeps pushing out througout the rpm range.
you will love to have those guages on. i so enjoy having the windows down and letting peeps know what i got.
i still cant believe i outran a '99-00 Cobra. he was catching me at the end though.
