Well I couldn't find a a good race for my 32 Roadster so I restored my 1984 Manco and put a new engine in it replacing the tried smoking Brigs and Straton 5 hp horizontal shaft. I restored the Manco and had it sand blasted and powder coated to give to my nephew this Easter.

I told this story on another site but I don't think I have mentioned it here. So here it is for those who have not already read it on another site.
Last year at a block party a neighbor down the street ,a young lawyer, was talking about his 2009 Z06. He was trying to get my neighbor Kevin...
I'm considering converting my Gt 500 to an automatic. I use the car for street and track. What kind of autos are being used and which would be best for street and track use.
It was a crisp November morning last year and I was cruising the Mexican countryside enjoying my newly modded GT500. In my rear view mirror I notice a brown spot getting closer and closer. The brown spot materialized into a brown Porsche Turbo closing the gap quickly. I estimate it was doing...
A Surgeon friend of mine, I'll call Dr. Doom, has a AMG CL 65 V12. He is pretty proud of the fact that it makes over 600 hp. Anyway he was telling me how fast it was and that there was no way my Shelby could keep up with it. OK what ever I didn't mention that the Shelby wasn't stock. You...

My Mcleod Adjustable TOB lost hydraulic pressure. Turns out one of the two lines on the TOB rubbed the Ram disc and sprung a leak. The shop replaced it with a Ford TOB. They said the steel line on the Ford TOB won't rub. Any of you guys runing Ford TOB on after market clutches?
Last November I was out cruising the highway one Sunday morning just a week or so after installing and tuning a 2.9 Whipple with supporting mods. It was a crisp cool morning and my car was running strong. I was enjoying my new power. My car looks stock down to the wheels which have been have...
I'm the ER doc for a small town ER. Everyone in the town seems to know everyone else. One of my favorite nurses is Maggie. She was 77 when this happened she is a kind and very generous person and still sharp as a tack and a great nurse.

This happened about 3 years ago but I thought that civilians and cops both might learn a lesson from it. Its kind of long but the detail are important. It shows how to handle things when the LEO is bad.
I bought my son a new Mustang GT in the summer of 2007 as a graduation present and a...

Must be Camaro season because this is the 2nd Camaro in about a week.:lol1:
We were out in the GT 500 again today and we saw a loud blacked out Black 2010 Camaro ahead. We worked our way through traffic to get behind him. He sees us behind him and nails it, we followed and reel him back in...
My son and I took the Shelby to Krogers for last minute grilling supplies. On the way home we passed Demarcus Ware driving a black Ferrari 599 GTO {I think} followed by his black convertible Lingenfelter Vette with the vanity plate SACKED{supposed to be 850hp}. He gave Jon a thumbs up when he...
Went out to eat tonight. Coming back we turn at the light right in front of a new yellow Camaro SS. The Camaro speeds up when the light changes and catches up to us. He is a guy in his 40's with what looks like his adult son with him. We give him a rev at the light. He doesn't rev back. We don't...
My alternator crapped out on me only 20K on the car my son's 07 Mustang GT's alternator crapped out on him last year at about 20K what's up with that?:shrug: I had my car towed to the Ford dealer and they changed it under warranty ignoring the Whipple. It was due for a state inspection so I told...

3. What kind of gain could be expected over stock 3.25 pulley and stock lower. [18psi now]
4. About...
M6 owner wants to "drag my ass down the highway"
I "think" he is stock but I'm not sure. No mods listed in his sig.
Stock M6 are 5.0 liter V10 with 7 speed and run about 12.3 and can top out at 202 mph with limiter off. I would prefer to run at a track [personally I don't think he has a real...
LOL OK this a a first attempt at videoing a race. Obviously we need to work on the technique some. :lol1: At least its a day time race. Its just an 03 M5 with basic mods exhaust etc. The driver is a friend. He said after I passed him he could hear his engine running. :lol1: We were working on...
