We had some good weather last night so I bolted up the newly acquired DR's and headed to BMP. The car is a 3.15 auto with AED tune and MF catback. A little more seat time and she will break the 11's with basically a tune/tire only.

BMR SP080's, thanks



Yessir. People at the track were surprised when I raised the hood to show nothing but leaves/dirt on a factory airbox car.

Did you get to hurt any feelings out there? When I had my 2013 A6 I had a tune only from Shaun doing 12.1x's. I was beating 11-14 5.0s that had full bolts at the time.

No, there were some really quick cars running that night.


Thank you sir

just, Wow.. your stock air box 5.0 > my GT500 + questionable driving abilities.

I miss rowing the gears, but had to buy this a few years ago to teach my oldest how to drive. My wife has an Expy so really no choice but knew the capabilities of the 6r80 with a tune.

When does the oldest get his shot to run it on the track

Her shot and any time she wants. I found her a 2010 Fusion Sport and tried to get her to run it in True Street NMRA Bradenton last month but said no... :(

That's too bad. The sport is a nice car. 3.5L has decent power

We will get there, as she is a leadfoot based on the driving app that I she is linked to. Both her and my 13yo are car girls and love going to NMRA events at the track, as well as interested in each one of my cars.

That's great. If you couldn't have boys at least you have girls into cars like you.

They love mustangs and always have since my CO Terminator. Here is a pic back from 11' when I got them some shirts. Second one is the older all grown up driving me to NMRA.

My girls are my world and in addition to cars, they love boating as well. Bigger bonus, the youngest likes fishing with me. :)

Super cool. They grow up too damn fast.

My oldest is 10.... seems like he was born last week.

They sure do grow up too fast. I remember my daughter loving the cars I owned back in the day, and then it was her girls, 3 of them. They attended all of my car shows and went to the track numerous times with me. Now they're grown up as well. This weekend my wife and I have front row seats to watch our youngest granddaughter's first fitness model competition. She's been training for months. You go, girl!! They're our lives, for sure.
