Doing some camera mount testing. But some decent in car sound captures too.

As it warms up here, some little changes will come when I have some time (and warm weather to work in).

the new mustang did very well against its competition in the latest "lightning lap at VIR", in both the V6 and V8 guise... so once again, good choice Smike

Thanks S6!

Just went and drove my SVTF. Holy cow what a difference after not driving it for ~4 months. Totally different beast. Felt too close to the wheel. Too upright in the seat. And no tinted window. WTF, people can see me?

Looking forward to being back in the comforts of the Mustang (and my tinted windows).

9500 mile update - rocking 26mpg on street driving with almost no freeway right now. First oil change will be today.

Pictures from an Evo meet locally here. 5.0 came. Some comparison pictures between us.

Well, if you are driving up through Oklahoma City...I'd love to see it.

We are about 4-5 miles off I-35 if you are coming up north out of Dallas on the return trip.

The v6 they put in this car is a little bit of a disappointment in my eyes...cause FORD should/could of put the Eco Boost v6 in there like the new F150......and you still would have good MPG and some nasty TQ out of the box......None the less im glad ford is finally stepping up!

Have fun !

Nice! So will it have the MCA wheels or C/S the performance package gets?

Sorry I missed stopping through on my last trip Chris. We long hauled it through early as hell to get to St. Louis.

Fords had the turbo Falcon in Australia that I've always wanted here in the States. But this v6 is close enough TTC or SC really might be in the cars future

Hey, it's cool Mike. I understand about wanting to get the trip underway. Guess that means I'll just have to make a trip to visit Mid-Ohio.
