Cars

:eek: Minto!

C'mon.. how can you not like it!

I'd prefer it if it came with Sean Connery.. but beggers can't be choosers.

Oh wow, drove the stang for the first time in months. Good stuff. Drove around pretty gingerly for a little bit letting the motor get warm, then took it out to a backroad and let a bit of a rip, took it up to 100 and didn't even break 2500 rpm, good stuff, so flipped a u and went back and did it again. Made me realize I really need to upgrade my suspension and steering, damn car was all over my side of the road.

your a smart driver :thumbsup:, I never rev the car past 3,000rpm untill the car is at OT and the oil pressure has dropped to its proper temp. i hate people who flog cold engines.

@BOB ~

Yeah, it's nice if your ride has been in lockdown when you finally get to take it out for a spin.

@LIGER ~

No doubt, especially high revving motors - the 4.8 X5's and M car motors have a small, colored indicator that changes from cold start to fully warmed to show when it's best to wind it up.

I have my DIC set to oil temp, and always let it get to ~170-ish before going WOT.

@DR ~

That's a cute ride - I can't say, after having experienced the narrow streets in the UK, I don't blame you. I always said if I lived in NYC and had to have a car, I'd score a Mini.
 
Oh yes it was, didn't even go WOT, just probably gave it 75% at most, there's a lot left and I'm thinking I could take it up to around 130/140, but it'd probably scare the hell out of me in that car.

Blueoval ~

Had a little discussion this week with the SO - decided not to go forward on my next round of mods (cam/pulley/etc). I'm afraid of getting too far into the motor and making it a little too "street unfriendly".

She said just to let the dust settle from the events of the next 2 months and if the business ventures we have on deck come to fruition (and it's +highly+ likely they will), then look into a *replacement*.

4 2 7 B A B Y :D
 
That would be very nice, 427 would be amazing. Is that the LS7? I'm not as familiar with GM motors as I should be.

Hopefully your ventures pan out and you are able to do that, or you know get an '09 Z06. :D

Oh yeah, I guess that was a little ambiguous - the 427 would have a new (wider) body wrapped around it :D

My parents and I were discussing my first car..and well, considering I'm not into..mechanics :\..it's not a brilliant idea buying a 1966 Beetle..It's just not feasableXD
SO, instead, I'm getting a Microcar! You get a stupid amount of miles to the gallon, and I'm rather sure you can drive them with a bike licence.

Oh you have to drive down here in one of those so I can totally mock the living daylights out of you!
