    Friendly Encounter with a 13 / 14 Shelby

    Before I say anything, let me make my position as an admirer of the new (well, all) Shelbys perfectly clear. If I could sell all my vehicles and buy one, I would but I would still be about 30K short. That being said, I woke up early this morning and decided to hop on the bike and head from...

    Lightning encounter with '69 Mach 1

    The wife and I were going to take the bike to OC for breakfast this AM, dead battery. Back up plan, take the Lightning! I'm not five miles from my house, about to make a left turn, and I notice a NICE 69-70 Mustang smokin up on me. Now, I really never get any action in the L as I live out in...

    This Cummins Asked for it....

    So me and my fiance are headed down to the OBX cruising along 168, minding our business in my Lightning (mods in sig). I'd say an 05-06 Dodge Cummins is passing me and as he does, he juices it spewing some smoke. My fiance asked if something was wrong with his truck and I explained how it was...

    Thought this was interesting....

    I got my hands on a Car and Driver mag and was reading the article about the SVT Raptor and thought it was funny how they said "Ford finally decided to make a speciality truck not focused on just stuffing a huge engine under the hood, and actually paid attention to suspension." Not that...

    Motor Trend Mag. SRT8 Challenger vs. GT500

    Has anyone else read this pile of crap??!! Last time I checked, this was a [I]perfomance car[I] evaluation! In practically EVERY performance category, the GT500 totally outperformed the SRT8 (.5 sec faster 1/4 mile) and they still picked the Mopar. They even described the blower whine as...

    Still trying to figure this one out....

    So with the mods in my sig, 51K miles, and about 15 passes on the ole girl I launched a rod. I have a feeling it was an underlying cause and not just the boost or tune. Tell me what you think....1st gear was all good. 2nd was good but around 4,000 RPM in 3rd the engine started to 'flutter'...
