    I got nabbed!!! ARGHHH!!!

    this is turning into a forum discussed at length last year. in illinois at least, a cop can say you were doing ANY speed and not have to back it up with any radar reading or anything. it happened to a friend of mine and when i asked some cop friends of mine, they told me that it's the cop's word...

    Has anyone found any "extras" in their new car?

    Re: Has anyone found any when i bought my GTS, i discovered someone left a Creed cd in the player. when i bought my Jeep Wrangler, i found an Allman Brothers cd in the player, a little nylon zipper bag with a Nintendo game, a Dallas Cowboys souveneir, and a condom inside.

    I got nabbed!!! ARGHHH!!!

    now that i post this, i'll hex myself. i don't think all cops target high profile cars. i was crusing on the highway a couple weekends ago - doing a bout 95 with a Honda - no racing, just cruising around, when we fly by a trooper pulled off to the side. i never hit my brakes in these cases...

    TOOFS Dynoday a Hit

    i know, i figured 65 would bring me to an even 500 which would keep me happy for a while. scotty TOOFST, i'll probably swing by your shop sometime soon to discuss this at length with you. Thanks for organizing the event Saturday.

    What are the drawbacks of headers if any??

    it's not as much of a drawback as it is an annoyance: with headers, chances are your O2 sensor will trigger your dash (check engine)light to go on. what bothers me about this is that unless i have it constantly reset, i never know if the light is illuminated because of the header/O2 situation or...

    need advice on "controlled shifting"

    need advice on \"controlled shifting\" it could be that i'm just not practiced enough, but what is the best advice on not losing the rear end when slamming into 2nd gear(or 3rd for that matter)? i'd like to head to Route 66 drags next month, but not if i can't control my car.

    Installing front end cover(ie bra)........

    i have a bra from Speed Lingerie. i had it on last summer and have no complaints. it fits perfect and caused no problems. i can't speak of the quality of the mopar bra, though. sorry. my only advice is to have a friend help you put it on because stretching that thing is a b**ch.
