Ya...I agree....This SUCKS!!!! I'm probably just going to put the Futura away for the winter. There is a bunch of salt on the roads. If we do get a nice weekend and we decide to meet up I'll just bring my Fairmont instead.

I just installed a Pro chamber and Mac cat back last week, so against my better judgement I have taken the car out the last two nights. Thank god it's loud and keeps me from hearing all that salt and crap from hitting the car. Anyway I can't blame you for putting it up for the winter, I don't think it will be descent for a few weeks, but you never know.
Hey POP TOP I would love to hook up so I can here the Prochamber.Mine is bone stock since I just got it. But I would like to hear what the prochamber sounds like.Let me know.
should have mine back from the dealer end of this week hopefully. blew out second and 3rd i think. i know they are putting a couple of gears and a couple of synchros in the tranny. i hope they fix the throwout bearing too. looks like the salt is going to be here for a while though
They are talking about high 50's or low 60's for this coming weekend so I would be game for it. I know my brother (99cobra2881) would come along with his, too. I might be able to get a couple of my friends to come down from NE...I need to meet up w/ one of them anyway to install a new cold air kit and maf I got for him.
The roads are going to be nasty from now until it starts raining in March so we either do this or stow it for a couple months. The hooters in OP would be alright but I think Lawrence would be okay too. Lawrence has some damn good beer, too.
edit: On second thought, lets get ahold of MC racing and see if we can do a dyno day. I know my brother and I would both like that.

I'm still down with getting together but my Futura is put away for the winter. There is just too much salt on the roads. They were calling for rain about mid-week. If we got a good rain I would drive the Futura. If not then I will just drive my Fairmont. A dyno day is cool with me but I'm just going to watch. I don't think the dyno has a low enough reading for the Fairmont. LOL

I've been out the last couple of days and noticed that on the main roads the salt isn't that bad. I think if we get a little rain mid week it will really help. And I also heard the weather will be mild by the weekend. So basically I'm down.
Just let me know!
What's the word boys?
Supposed to be nice today and tomorrow but then colder again on Saturday and Sunday. The flip side to nice weather with all the snow we had is that the roads are a grimy mess. I was in KC and Topeka yesterday and its pretty messy.
If you want to back it off for a while, that would give us some time to set up a dyno day.
What do you guys think?

I think wait a while too. No point in washing the car right now to show it off, it just gets dirty as soon as you put it on the street in traffic. Oh yeah, I would be down if it is in KC. I don't know Lawrence very well but if I can follow someone from the OVP area, that would be cool too. Maybe we should wait until like March...

you need to get out more
How many guys would want a dyno day? Post up if you do and I will start making some calls if there is enough interest.
I might go for a dyno day.
A dyno day would be cool. I would just go and watch though.

just an idea for you guys. the mklo (missouri kansas lightning oweners) is having a get together in feb up in liberty. the svtoa kansas city chapter and a cobra club are meeting up as well. read about it here. http://www.nloc.net/forum/showthread.php?s=&threadid=86649
Damn snow!!! It will probably be at least March before we get a good enough day to meet up. That meet in Liberty sure looks like fun. Just a few minutes away from my house as well.

I was just getting ready to post about the meet at Mk Motorsports. I am helping get it together. Mk is a great customer and good freind of mine. I wanted to invite any of you local SVT or cobra guys up there. I thought it would give us a good place to hook up. It is his open house / SVTOA club meeting. So there will be a lot of cool rides.We will be doing some drawings and stuff. I will be staying up there all night!! It will be cool! Let me know if you can make it or not. It is Feb 26th at 5:00
are you on the svtoa side of this? i am in the mklo and these get togethers are pretty damn good. we have a lot of fun at these. i'm looking forward to this one. have you seen roger lately?
Matt at Mk is just a good freind and customer of mine. I sell him most of his parts that he sells. I had 98 Cobra a few years back and had to get rid of it. I had a pretty sweet WRX, but I decided I wanted a new 05GT.But after waiting 12 weeks on the new GT and going to the last SVTOA meeting with Matt, I decided I wanted a new Cobra instead. So I shopped for 2-3 weeks and picked up new 04 yellow vert. Very happy!! So I am just trying to help out MK anyway I can.
