I will keep on the lookout for it. I think I may have seen the Truck at Dewey. I work Just south of Ankeny (Carney-Woodside Buisness park) and usually drive by Dewey a couple times a week.

I think some of the Local mustang guys are talking about a cruise up to Ledges in boone, Otherwise maybe we could all get together around here some weekend. Been a little while since I was up in boone and usually it was just for the IMCA Supernationals but it got to be such a long show the last couple years we have just been going to the latemodel nationals in knoxville instead.

Good Luck at CF... A lot of the guys around here go up there and it sounds like nice track. Once I decide to buy a decent pair of tires for the back (dr's) I may take my car up. I am torn because I want to take it to the track but I also don't want to break a car that isn't paid for!

Could be fun. What do the mustang guys think about having a truck or two following them around (or outrunning some of them. :D )?

I think I saw that black L today. Had Marion county plates, looked stock except a cowl hood that didn't fit all that well. Dirty as hell, too. Got beside him at a stoplight but he stopped shy of my window... didn't seem very social.

I am not sure what county he was from (was mowing and didn't have my glasses on) but the truck was pretty dirty, so it is probably the same. As for the above post, I don't think anyone would mind. However I posted an update on the site and have not gotten a reply so we will have to take it from here and see what happens.

Was headed up north on i35 at the orlabor exit and a white L with a checkered back window passed me from warren county. Had alot of white gravel dust on it. LOL. For some reason they are popping up in places that I dont expect.

This is interesting, I see he does sct and I got a Diablo tuner but it does look like he has had some newer cars up on the dyno.
