    Anyone know about camcorders?

    I'm looking to get a camcorder to be used in car racing videos (open track and drag). Anyway, I know that the car will shake around a fair bit, and that normally, hard drives do not take well to shaking. The camera I want is a Hard Drive model and I have been unable to find anything online...

    GT500 Lightning Lap

    Just got my August Car and Driver. They took about a dozen cars for timed laps around VIR, the GT500 being one of them. I think the GT500 did pretty well, especially considering it's weight. Car and driver praised its predictability and brakes. Anyway, here is how it stacked up with some of...

    777 Mustang (Rumor)

    Has anyone else heard anything about a so called "777 Mustang"? I got word from someone inside Ford that Ford will be releasing a 700hp Mustang called the 777. Or it's at least in the discussion phase right now. It wouldn't happen for a couple of years, perhaps it will come out with the next...

    Buying a car with Rebuilt Title

    What do you guys know about buying a car with a rebuilt title? I found someone selling a 2002 GTS viper for $30k, but with a rebuilt title. Car has 22k miles. Normally I would expect the car to sell for ~$45k-$55k, so it kind of seems like a decent deal. Guy says it was almost all fiberglass...

    Radar Cameras?

    Has anyone noticed radars that are now set up on major freeways? They have a solar panel, so they run off solar power, and just emit a KA blast every 15 seconds or so. On I-75 there is one at 8 mile, just south of the Davison, and one on I-696 over I-75. Anyone know if these are just...

    This can't be good

    Noticed a grinding yesterday while coasting in neutral, so I took a look and found this. I've always had just the slightest leak, so this is pretty new. Got wheel hop a couple days ago for the first time all summer. That is my suspicion. I'm thinking of taking it to Lideo, Stenod or a dealer...

    Went for a ride in MidlifeC's car

    It was awesome. We took a sweeping turn a good 15 MPH faster than I can take it right now. And what was really amazing, is that his suspension is even more streetable than my stock suspension. It's just a quiet and does not ride harshly at all. Anyone looking for a little better ride I would...

    your thoughts on "upgrading"

    Guys, since I've got the slobalt, I've been noticing that my terminator leaves me unsatisfied in two areas. The cobalt completely out does the cobra in steering/handling composure and refinement/fit finish/interior. With that said, I have been considering a few options, partially inspired by...

    A cool little feature for you road racers...

    I saw a few GT500's up close today, and while inspecting the brakes I saw something I thought was pretty neat. They positioned the brake bleeding valves on the outside of the caliper in a way such that you will be able to bleed the front brakes without removing the wheel. I thought this was a...

    Anyone know of a good Viper forum?

    I'm looking into doing some research of vipers. I'm considering trading the cobra for an early 2000's Viper. I'm not a fan of all the rattling in the cobra, and would love to have something that handled a little better. Plus the viper has always been a dream car for me. Any thoughts you...

    When do you replace your rotors?

    My rotors have 35,000 miles on them, and I just changed the front pads for the first time. I have done open track with them as well. I don't notice any cracks, but I'm curious when I should change the rotors? How often does everyone else go through rotors? Other than cracking, is there a...

    Motor Trends amazing figure 8 time

    Motor trend ran the GT 500 around their figure eight in only 24.5 seconds. That is a fantastic time, even if this is just one small test, it shows this car has lots of potential on a road course. Here is how it stacked up against a few other cars just for comparison: 2003 cobra 26.3...

    FME on Thursday (Milan)

    Who is going to the FME rental on Thursday? I'm going with the Cobra, and I have a couple friends with some RSX type S's who are going for the first time. For anyone else interested, it's open to everyone, racing is from 6-9 at Milan. Maybe Ford will even bring out a GT 500...

    What do you think the next Gen GT500 will be?

    I've been thinking about the GT500, and where Ford can go from here. In the 90's, the cobra got a few small updates every year, which were small steps towards a better car each year. In following with that tradition, here is where I think the GT500 might be headed in a few years. As HP is...

    Road and Track (worst drivers ever)

    I found this on another forum from someone who just recieved their July issue of Road and Track. Before everyone freaks out, these guys managed a whopping 13.3 quarter mile in the 03 cobra, and a 13.2 in a base C6. "since the article is not on their web site yet i figured id post some...

    improving steering

    I just bought a new cobalt, and the steering on it is fantastic. Now, the cobra is disappointing to me in the steering department, and i'm wondering what I can do about it. I don't like how the car steers, particularly the part where you turn the wheel, it doesn't turn, then all of a...

    Winter Mods are done...

    Finished off my winter mods this weekend. I didn't do too much, but what I did took a fair amount of time. First, I painted my calipers red. This was done using the duplicolor kit. I really liked how it came out. Took me 1 weekend per caliper, due to painting and letting it dry saturday...

    New winter beater

    Got a new winter car on friday. 205 hp 4 cylinder with eaton supercharger. It's not too fast, but it's fun enough. Handles very well. Nicely built, quiet and composed. The XM radio and MP3 stereo are pretty nice. Wheel hop and torque steer suck. Tough car to shift because it's too easy to...
