    Clutch slip or what?

    Murdered Celica GTD

    Now, don't get me wrong. I take no pleasure in this kill as I never thought he had a chance. He seem damned determined to try and his fancy GTD (what the hell is that??) and NOS sticker made me feel like it wasn't a 100% waste. It was, but it was also kind of cool to see a Celica moving as fast...

    I had a small oil question. I keep hearing that once you start using Synthetic oil, that you can't use other oil again. Is this true, and why? I want to move from the Ford blend to pure Syn. Bruce

    Going to the track.

    Well guys, I'm going to the track, this Friday, for the very first time. In the 03 no less. I've never launched a car @ track and I am sort of worried about embarrassing myself. I've launched many a car on the street, but it's not the same thing and I've never owned a IRS Mustang. I've been...

    My sister was having her car detailed today and asked if I wanted mine done. I let them do it and now I have a damaged wheel. It seems the detailers son put cleaner on the wheel to clean the chrome and let it sit in the sun to long. So now the chrome is stained. He put in writing that he...

    Wheels for silver Cobra.

    Guys, As much as I like the stock wheel, I just don't think they look right on a Silver Cobra. I am looking to replace them with a darker (charcoal?) color. I'd like to get a darker wheel and maybe add some black lines to the car itself. I think the two colors would make my ride look hot...

    Car Sways

    Guys, Here in Tallahassee we have crappy roads, with a lot of ruts. On the stock F1's I feel like the car is moving back and forth and I am fighting to keep it moving in a straight line. It's not all the roads as my Explorer doesn't do it. So I assume it's a horse power / tire or something...
