Disclaimer: Before anybody jumps on my case, I'm not posting a for sale ad in here.
I have had some of you guys in the past ask me if I ever decide to sell my wheels to contact you, but I can't remember who it was!
Anyway, last season I got a hole in the sidewall of one of my Nitto drag...
After blowing out the sidewall on one of my Toyo Proxes DR's, I swapped back to my stock wheels and tires so I could get a little racing in before the snow flies. I tried doing a light scrub-off on my first pass and had a so-so 2.00 60 foot. Then the next run I did what I used to do with my...
Had the M-FR3-MSVT handling package installed this week, along with the Roush wheelhop reduction kit. Just the lowering of the car makes it look 100% better, no more "4x4" look. I'm told it will settle another 1/2 inch or so as the springs settle.
In these pix you can see before/after on my...
I bought one of these last fall, when I had my '08. I didn't install it right away then got my '10 this spring. I kept the kit. I know it fits on my '10, I'm just wondering if there's any different instructions needed? it looks like the fuses and relays in my '10's distribution box are not the...
Maybe it's just server problems. But the DNS does not resolve. Anyone else having trouble getting there? Kinda funny, they sent me an email reminder to renew my membership. Clicked the link. Website's dead...
Maybe Amy forgot to renew the domain name? :pop:
I just installed the FRRP M-5320-SA "KR" Axle back Exhaust on my 2010. Just wondering something that seems odd-
On my 2008 car, when I did the KR's, both my stock axle-back as well as the KR's had that "nub" on the pipe from the front and the "u-groove" on the muffler side where that nub went...
Brand new and still in the shrink wrap.
This is the GT500 KR knob and handle, it does NOT say "Ford Racing" on it. I'm pretty sure these are not available new anymore but that may be wrong. These are the ones Shelby installed on the 2008-2009 KR's.
$150.00 shipped OBO.

Ford Racing M-9603-M54SC Cold Air Intake Kit (tune required)
Fits 2007-2009 GT500. Replaces restrictive stock airbox.
This is the "tuner kit" which does not come with the ProCal, you will need a tune to use it.
I bought this kit new last July, it was on my car from July to...
If you saw my other post about "Confusion regarding TVS" and my 2010, I just want to follow up on it if anyone cares.
To summarize:
I had a 2008 GT500 and installed the TVS "Super Pack" on it, and ran the Ford ProCal tune. When I upgraded to a 2010 model, I kept the TVS, but wasn't sure if...
Today I had my GT500 detailed by Steve Reglewski of Showcar Detail
When I took delivery of my new GT500, I was somewhat upset by what the dealership employees had done to the car; it had been "dusted off" several times in the showroom, plus it had some minor surface scratches from people...
I had the FRPP TVS kit (605 HP) on my former Shelby, a 2008 GT500. I kept the blower kit and I now have a 2010 model. Here's where the confusion comes in-
FRPP shows a "2010 specific" part number M-6066-MSVTA rated at 660 HP and 15 PSI. As far as I can tell, it's the same TVS I already have...
After much soul-searching, I decided to dump my 2008 GT500 and get a real performance car. I am now the proud owner of a 2010 Camaro! I just couldn't resist the urge and I'm glad I decided to get rid of my Ford.
Here's a pix of my new baby!!
I'm so glad I decided to go this route...
I am waiting for my order to be pulled on an '11 GT500. I have a deal worked out on my 2008 in stock form. I'm just waiting until I have a VIN # on my new car before I take the parts off for sale. Just posting this up in case any of you are thinking about doing some of these things, and rather...
Here's the deal- There's a 2008 GT500KR at a stealership near me. It has only 1000 miles on it and is in perfect/immaculate condition.
They want a little over $52,000 for it outright. In discussions regarding my current GT500, they said if I took my mods off it and put it back to stock, they...
We were blessed with incredible weather (for us anyway!) yesterday at GLD for the Real Street Drags event. We run this event with the ET boards shut off, but you still get a timeslip. Early in the day the ET boards were still on, and I was just kind of watching the action. Guy with a beautiful...
I keep making steady progress each time out. The D/A today was about 100'
New best MPH to go with ET. First time in the 125 zone. :coolman:

A lot of guys with Mach1's add the "COBRAJET" logo to the shaker to kind of tie in with the retro theme. I came across some CobraJet logos for GT500's from the 60's. My car's color is "Grabber Orange" like the 1969 GT500, which also had the Cobra Jet logos. I also have some Cobra Jet parts...
We had 4 Shelbys present yesterday at GLD. Me, Steve,(srk1959) BJ (FLYVNE04) and Kali. (KG/Eleanor). Three of us had new bests. Steve's fighting traction problems but he has the most power out of the group and needs better tires.
I had two grudge matches pre-setup; one with Kali and one with...

I recently installed the Ford Racing Cobra Jet Throttle Body on my GT500.
I was told by more than one trusted source that I could bolt this part on and not have to alter my tune. In fact I was told this part would dramatically improve throttle response over the stock unit.
Both have proven...
