..... and a worthy sticker at that. :rockon:

That would be too badass to get to drive the Nuerburgring. Seen alot of crazy crashes there too.

What squadron you coming to? I have been stationed at McConnell for almost 4 years. There are a quite a few mustang owners on base. I know of 4 cobras, 2 saleens, 3 roushs a sh!t load of 5.0s and a couple GT500s. Even got a few lighnings too. We don't really all hang out though:shrug:

Theres a group of mustang guys that meet up in wichita on almost a weekly basis. I use to go up and take pics with them, but havent in a year or so. Plan to start attending them again soon. Typically its a meet and greet, then out to dinner, then out to Kansas international dragway...

Thats a clean car you've got there man! Welcome to kansas! haha

Ahhh awesome, I'll def. be game to meet up and cruise with everyone then as long as I'm there & not deployed haha I hear KID is a pretty nice facility too! Thanks for the welcome, I am gonna miss it here in Europe, but I am excited to get back to the land of overnight shipping for parts hahaha

Thanks man, yeah, it's def. been a dream come true...we're going back up there tomorrow since they'll have the GP track and the big track open & going (GoPro time) - and this will be the last time I can run both before I ship the car back to the US :( And yeah, the crashes can be wild there for people who aren't careful or who become over confident.

I'll be heading over to the AMXS - the 22nd I believe?? How do you like it there?? Sounds like there's a fairly tight crew there though, sucks they don't hang out & do much, I am all about doing that - I've been spoiled here with that aspect of it...I'll def. be game to help change that when I get there this summer though!

AMXS...sorry! I was the Specialist Flight Chief there for 2 1/2 years. Welcome to drama central!!! What's your AFSC and rank?
Love your car buy the way. It kind of sucks because now I have to cross that color of my list of potentials. Now i am down to silver. Kona was 1st then sterling grey. Now there will be one of each on base. When you get here if you have to go to FTD, I'm the Detachment Chief so stop on by.

Wow, not the most confidence-ispiring welcoming words for the AMXS I was hoping to read lol I'm a hydro Ssgt. 7-level. Went from B-1's @ Ellsworth to 5's/17's here in Germany & now onto 135's hahaha Thanks for the props, it is a kickass color - my first choice - and it really sucked since I couldn't wait on a '12, I had to press to order an '11 in the US...which I later bought from Overland Park, KS (ironic) and had it shipped out here. I do love the Kona though - that and the grey were the first colors I'd seen on a Shelby in person, but the grey was my vice! Honestly, I say they're all good, and with the right accents the car with pop - Ingot silver is also an epic color!!! Looks great as a stripe delete too! Epic, I will see you there at the FTD then, I'm sure I'll have to spend some time there getting qaul'd on the boom stuff!!

Also, though, I have to give props on those blue beauties you have...love that Sonic Terminator!! I have two friends out here who each have two Torch Red Terminator's & they are both pretty wicked...if I ever had the chance to pick up a Comp Orange '03/'04 I'd have to jump on it hahaha

HYDRO!!! Well i guess us hydro guys have good taste in rides. Couple other hydro mustang guys at AMXS too, one has a 07-09 Roush and the other had a red 11-12 GT500 but i think he got rid of it. His wife still drives a white 07-09 CS though. One of the backshop guys had a "10 gt500 for a while but i think he has a kona 5.0 now...if he's still here. I worked C-130s for 11 years and then became in FTD instructor for 5 years before i came here 4 years ago. I can't really tell you what KC-135s are like beause i was a MSgt when i got here and never really worked it, but i know hydro is pretty busy with the boom and MPRS. Didn't mean to bumb you out. It's not that bad. They just b!tch alot.

Hell yeah, hydro FTW!!! hahaha That's cool, at least there are some other cats there that are into the Mustang scene as well. Ahhh, nice - I hear 130's are the life for us...a lot better than where I've been, I'm sure lol. I am going there with another car I know who worked 135's before Germany so he's been schooling me up some - I am sure it'll be an adjustment btu I look forward to the new challenges! Bitch a lot eh?? MX people?? Naaaaahhhhh hahahaha
