I agree.
Where any pic of our convertible taken...the misses is asking.
I would like to thank everyone for coming up to Bellingham this weekend. I know the guys at MPS were very happy to see a turnout like you guys had this weekend!
It was my first dyno day and first time on a dyno! I was very impressive to see that many BadA** Fords in one parking lot! It would be cool to see this as a recurring event for you guys! Nice Cars Guys!!! good talking to svtrick and oxfordsnake. Great group of guys! -Todd B.

Here are a few of my shots.
K all I can say is wow that was awesome!
Hey guys I for one had a great time and loved drooling on all the fine Fords! I loved the dyno place, I have been to a couple before and was disappointed, I think it should be our official dyno place from now on! Yeah its in Bellingham but I thought the drive was part of the fun. It's too bad I bought other stuff instead of the predator or I could have done a better run :cryying: . Anyway thanks to the guy with the GT (Sorry forgot your name :shrug: ) for helpin me pop off that pain in the butt air silencer (10 second job...WHATEVER!). My car sounds more growly now and burns even more rubber when I slam it into second. I dont know if its the silencer or the exhaust getting nice and hot that did it but I LIKE IT!
epper: Thanks also to the guy with the black cobra (sorry forgot your name too :shrug: I feel like I have short term memory loss right now) for that sweet road race we had goin there. That was fun! Count me in anytime. The gravel did kinda suck, especially after I lit the tires at the light right before and then the gravel started stickin and slingin big time when I hit the gravel (cringe). Can't wait for the next run up there!
P.S. Wiz and I will be working on a video combining our two into one edited one. If you guys are interested we could probably work out spreading the final result around. I think we got most everybody on the dyno and I got some of the trip up.
P.S. #2 Dave you better lock that stang up good, cuz them stingers might find their way out from under your car and onto mine! j/k They sounded awesome man!

Sorry I couldn't make it guys. The beast wasn't quite ready for another session and I had lotsa "Honey Do's" to do. Maybe next time.
There is no way them stingers will find their way, unless you finally got an IRS

Vid of 130 through the curves to B-ham...? That would be sweet.
anyone else have video of the trip up to Bellingham? I'd love to get the raw footage to edit into a video.
My son took tons of pics....mostly of the ground... :dw: Ohh well hes 8... :shrug:

Haha thats funny. Yea i usually am the video guy, but camera is toast. Lets get the vids up!
Sounds like everyone had a blast! I would have too! I had some issues w/ the PMS. Not sure what happened? I think I might have accidently hit one of the keys while I had the hand held between my legs. I looked at the fuel and it was saying 1% while cruising at 60! When I pulled over and looked at the settings. Everything that was set in was gone from what I programmed the day before. Then I was going to reprogram the info from the start up sheet but realized I left it at HOME!!! :shrug: So I diconnected the PMS, drove home (very slowly I might add) and hooked up the PMS, loaded the info from the start up sheet and it's been running fine ever since. No issues at all. So I'm guessing I pressed one of the buttons by accident? Anyway, hopefully next time. I'm going to try to get to a dyno sometime this weekend if possible? I want to see what my mods have done for me.

Personally i say ditch the PMS. It sounds like a pain in the ass.
That's the only problem I had and it was my fault. It's easy as shit to use. Add fuel, timing, back out the timing. All w/ just the press of a button. Do that or burn a chip? I'll stick w/ what I've got right now. When it starts to be a pain in the ass. Then maybe I'll get rid of it. So far so good! :thumbsup:

Hint: Clue him in on the viewfinder. :beer:
Right now we are running Lean. 14.0 at higher Rpms. if we went to say 11.8 is that safe and will we gain or lose hp/tq from a custom tune?

That's pretty close to 12:1 which is a pretty decent A/F ratio. I think most turners look for around 12.5:1? :shrug:
Rob
i think we need to do this again in the summer time but if we make along trip we need two groups 1 group for speeders and racers and 1 for the people who just got 224 dollar tickets and wanna play safe and easy
reply to Rick, it was a joke man sheesh! And I would rather not have wheel hop issues thanks! I will stick to the live axle. Dont get me wrong, I love the irs for cornering but I have seen too many shake themselves apart under heavy dragging with a bad driver. This could be why the 2007 Cobra will probably be going back to a live axle or so they say. We'll see. I wish they could just tighten it up a bit, but all the high power irs cars have this problem. MM&FF blew the back end out of a Viper by not letting up when dragging, it literally fell out of the car. Secondly, a reply to Chuck, yes I do have some vid of us doin 130 through bellingham, I will include as much as possible in our edited video that I am making with wizbangdoodle. My buddy got a bit shakey in parts so I dont know how much is usable. Keep in touch, [email protected]
