Was searching the cars for B-J auction in Vagas on Oct-7 and found this 00 R..
2000 FORD MUSTANG COBRA "R"
Normally I would put this in the For sale thread, but as far as I know this is a first and figured it would be interesting to alot of you.
I will be at the auction and will...
Not Cobra R related, but since many of the people in here are car people beyond Ford only, I thought I would post a link to the new racecar we are in the process of building for AI. I ordered a new 2010 Camaro in April, it came in in Late june. I drove it to MAM in Iowa to see what the car was...
I have decided to sell my AI race car, please pass the word if you know someone that might be interested.

From the discussion we were having in the other thread http://www.svtperformance.com/forums/showthread.php?t=482207 it got me thinking.
If you were to go out and buy a R to build into a AI race car, which year R would you choose and why? I am talking about actually building a AI race car...

Congrats goes out to Fred for winning the AIX class at Iowa speedway this weekend for NASA's inaugural races. He was smoking fast, was great to see everything go well. :)
Not sure how things went on Sunday, hopefully Fred will fill us in.

Went down to MAM on Friday to run the afternoon and then run with Damian and findtheline on saturday. My goal was to shake the race car down and make sure everything is ok before the first race in three weeks.
On the track for my fourth session and started smelling coolant, just as I pulled...

Guys,
We have always kept things loose in here and that is alot of what has made it fun, but we are getting way too many threads that have nothing to do with R's.......or even cars. There are forums in here that are more appropriate for the Road Side Pub, the open tracking forum, ect...
Just got my 05 6.0 back from the dealer for a oil leak coming from the rear cover on the engine. Had something to do with some fitting off the oil pump that loosened up and cause the cover to crack. (29,000 miles)
I talked to another local guy that had the same problem, how common is...
Some people in here talked about going this year. Is anyone planning on going to the Scottsdale auction in January?
I see the registration fee to be a bidder goes up $100 the first of December.

Just for reference I thought I would post some results from putting AFR heads on my 95R.
My engine had never been opened up.....at all. Twards the end of last year, I got a external coolant leak from the drivers side head. We pulled the heads and everything looked perfect (8500 miles on...
Last year we ran 30 minute sessions instead of the traditional 20 minute sessions. I did get a few complaints and understand we will never make everyone happy, but I want to know what you all preferr. I did the math last year, if we run 30 minute sessions, we get more total track time, but for...

Guys,
Just a FYI. I had my race car in to have the alignment checked. This is the first it has been checked since I bought the car last year. The chassis had recently been setup by Griggs before that.
They got it on the rack and found the drivers side camber was at -3.5 degrees and the...
I have the MM K-member in my 95R and want to set the engine back in the rear mounting holes (moves the engine rearward 3/4")
The only problem I see is the tranny cross member doesn't have enough slot in the holes to allow this. Does anyone make a cross member that would just bolt in and...
I heard Dean qualified second behind Robin Burnett in Saturday's AI race at Beaver Run, passed Robin and won the race.
Sunday Dean got the pole with Robin second. Dean pulled away from Robin and won with a comfortable lead.
Way to go buddy!!!!!!!!! We are proud of you!!! :beer...
