"Of course, since I'm wide awake, I guess now's as good a time as any to start thinking. When I think, it's usually about something big, like how to accessorize my lawn tractor, or how to get a few extra horsepower out of the garbage disposal." - Tim Allen

You should do a turbo on that Fox body there sweet with a good turbo! Ill race you guys with my mower lol Hustler SuperZ 25hp Honda able to cut grass at 25mph from factory, However it Blew a seal & cooked the motor so rebuilt it & went .20 over & upgraded the hydro pumps so Now I know it's over 25mph top speed while cutting. My buddys laughed at me and said who moddeds there lawn mower when it breaks down, my response when you have approx 8acres of grass to cut.

My Fox has an old school Paxton on it...I don't want to put huge money into any one car or project....I have ADD when it comes to buying cars...and I never get rid of them! Something always needs work...so no big boost for my Fox:bigcry:
 
Screw it!!!!

Bring the marauder and we can do a blower install party in Louisville! :cool4:

:D

Being new to any situation can be un nerving to say the least. My wife and I don't do the "car show" "car club" thing due to the almost always presence of politics involved. Before we came to MV10 I was asked by several members to give this group a chance, don't judge all car groups because of past experiences...I am glad I listened.

From the moment I got out of my car there were smiling faces and warm welcomes. The first person I met was Doom, we instantly got along. I wish I could remember everyone's names but there so many and all of you nice. Genuinely wanted us to be included, wanted to say hi, good afternoon, lets get a drink, lets play cards, lets grab a bite to eat, etc etc...I have never been to a gathering before where I felt at ease right off the bat. I am a social type, I LOVE to talk, but usually I have to force myself into a conversation...not so at MV10, I was asked to join.

Thanks, thanks to the many people that we had the chance to meet and hang out with. I can honestly say that we will be back, looking forward to it.

I love seeing testaments like this ^^^^^ for the MM.Net gang. It expresses exactly how I felt some 8-9 years ago when I made my "Leap of Faith" to just check out one of the Marauder Events (Ray's NE Lincoln/Mercury Car Cruise in Philly, April 2004). Great folks and fun times. It has been this way at every event that I have attended which is probably nearing 100 or more by now. Everyone is a little skittish the first time ..... that goes away in the first 5 minutes. :2thumbs:
