I guess you have never seen a road course prepped mustang. It'll surprise you.

I had a 94 GT that I converted the suspension from the factory 4-link to a 3-link/torquearm/panhard bar suspension from griggs racing. That car could handle very well.....right up there with an FD RX-7.

Trust me man, it will be worth the wait. The only problem is that after a while, you're going to want more.

You can turn anything to a track car, with right stuff. I just hate mustangs with a passion. Just the way I was raised. And something to do with the ego those owners carry. They probably say the same about me. Family is all about imports and chevy, all else junk. You know how it is. I wont give no other car respect, even if it prove's itself.

LOL. I drug my GF out to Z dayz last year and tried to get her to video tape some in car stuff on the dragon. All you can see is the camera going from the road to her feet and her screaming "Daniel slow down" and "oh god I'm going to die". She actually got her "last words" to her mom and sister on thata video. Needless to say I think I'll be riding solo next year

We need to get that boat again for ZDayZ 08 for sure, and this time, we'll all be FI, except for Nathan, but by then, he may be FI too.

I'm down. Lets do it. House boats FTMFW!

I spoke with Sharif today. He said they hope to have the car ready to crank tomorrow, then tune and tie up any loose ends next week after the holiday. So maybe a lte christmas present next week. James I am going to tell him he has to get atleast one more horsepower than you from my car lol.

Definitely was an awesome time, I honestly can't say enough good things about it, and Carol was pretty cool. We definitely need to jump on a house boat again for 08.

Sharif did the cut out for me while the car was there, and I like how gold banner contrasts with the red.
After seeing this thread, I have to ask. You wouldn't happen to be the guy I ran some of the Dragon and Cherohala skyway with last zdayz? I'm John with the 07 Carbon Silver Z.
