    Red LS2 GTO on Airline?

    Anyone know a red GTO with a red "G T O" banner on the windshield? I had a couple runs after he followed me onto Airline from Pecue heading south toward Highland. Would like to know his mods as a catback was all I could see...

    Ls2 Gto

    Met a red one (with a red "G T O" banner over the windshield) on Airline, last evening. He had a passenger, I was alone with a full tank. I'm CAI/Catback, he's loud with a polished stainless catback (Borla, maybe?) at the minimum. First run: He pulled out behind me and I stayed in second...

    ***Important Road Side Message***

    This is not Smack Down!!! I have recently received and read many complaints about the attitude and language here in Road Side. Some have taken advantage of the easy-going nature of the board and this Moderator, in general. It all ends, now. Consider yourselves warned, publicly. You are...

    Republicans vs. Democrats

    A woman in a hot air balloon realized she was lost. She lowered her altitude and spotted a man in a boat below. She shouted to him, "Excuse me, can you help me? I promised a friend I would meet him an hour ago, but I don't know where I am." The man consulted his portable GPS and...

    SVT Needs Your Help

    SVT needs your support. I'm going to keep this message short and to the point. It appears that there are some people within Ford that feel that the SVT brand is no longer needed and is a waste of Ford's resources. I ask that each one of you take 5 minutes out of your life write a letter similar...

    City of Heroes

    Anyone else play? Loved the board RPG "Champions" in the '80s (D&D with superheroes). COH is a great interpretation. :thumbsup:

    Azure Blue MACH1 run-in

    Ran into a nice MACH this afternoon. I was merging onto 281N from Trinity, and watch the distinctive 4" Bassani tips go by in the fast lane. I pull in behind him and as the freeway opens up, he moves over to the middle lane. He had been driving pretty fast, but was now pacing at 60. I put...

    Off Topic, but don't know where else to ask...

    Anyone know what a 2003 4.2L V6 F150 5-spd with 3.55s will run in the quarter? None of the media have tested the "stripper" model, so I'm relying on the vast knowledge of the L folks on the board :thumbsup:

    New Daily Driver

    Couldn't resist the special ($12,600 after rebates, discounts and dealer savings off the $20,100 sticker :thumbsup: ) and traded my 1990 Dodge D150 for this: Basic entry level 2003 F150 (4.2 V6, 5-spd, 3.55s) with the XLT seats and free bedliner (32 miles on the clock at the test...

    Critique my FF Team

    Sorry I couldn't participate in the SVTP FF league, but I'm in a Central/South Texas league with ten owners. I pulled the dreaded #10 out of the bag, but used the "double picks" to my utmost advantage. We're a typical 1QB, 2RB, 3WR, 1TE, 1DEF, 1K starting lineup. Good or bad, please...

    Another bike "hanger" (vs. "killer", lol)

    Yeah, yeah, I know...guy doesn't know how to ride, paper plates so he didn't want to beat on it, etc., etc., etc... However, I got a great compliment: "Dude, you have a FAST car", when I went neck-and-neck from two consecutive 45 MPH roll races with one of these: Guy was totally cool...

    Hesitation on shifts

    My bro test drove a '00 White L today (I'm trying to get him to the SVT darkside, lol), and he mentioned that there was a hesitation or stumble on the 1-2 and 2-3 shift. Is this normal? This was on a stock truck with 58K miles. If it weren't for that, he'd probably taken it home. Any...

    Child Seats

    397/377 SAE with 9" cone and Flowmaster cat-back

    OK, gang. I couldn't take the Flowmaster negativity and took my car back to the dyno this morning. My car now has 5,600 miles, the 9" open filter from SFPHQ (or JDM) and a '99 Cobra 2-1/2" Flowmaster catback (#17248). Temp was 75-80 degrees and with a misty/muggy environment. STD was very...

    350Z Owner..."You blew me out of the water"

    I was moving over to get to the off-ramp and, apparently, made the new silver Nissan owner in front of me think something was "up". My wife said "Oh, no" (in an "I don't think so" tone) when he hit it as we slid behind him. I downshifted to third and quickly made up the jump-space he got...

    B.S. or not?

    My brother (in Austin, TX) is considering a Lightning and he had a dealer (in Houston) tell him that they could order the L motor (not the H/D version) in any old F150. Smells awfully fishy to me, but you guys are the experts. What say ye? TIA

    Third LS1

    Completely stock sounding pewter Camaro SS (and looking down to the tips, except "RAM AIR" stickers on the scoop and "LS1" under the driver's taillight). I was behind him at a light and moved over next to him going up a slight incline. Second gear, door-to-door at about 40, was gonna give...

    Amazon Stage 1 CAI

    Those running the AR, is the airbox open in the front? How about the filter? I'm looking for a straight shot to the MAF with the headlight out. The pics at AZracing.com aren't clear. I know the PHP/Steeda meets that criteria, but I'm looking for a plastic shield. The JLP is in the...
