I know that Stephen and Michael are driving the mustang in FS next year and I've just joined the mustang ranks myself. Anyone else in FS for '09?

Well, my MAJOR driver was I can fit in the car w/ a helmet with minimal seat adjustments. The bonus is the car is a blast to drive, great steering inputs, has the glorious V8 note and gets decent mileage. Tough combo to beat.

Rodney, did yours come with the free therapy sessions? They start when you leave for work and crank the key in the morning.

The next time you stop by, you are welcome to take my car out for a test drive.

Yes, had the standard Rx note in the glove box!! It's killing me right now that I can't take it out of the garage for a quick spin. It's nice and clean the the weather is oh so crappy. Be glad when this pattern breaks!

Very glad to hear there will be more sweet V8 sounds at THSCC autocrosses in 2009. The 2008 season saw a depressing lack of such goodness. My ears are still buzzing from all the 4 banger buzz. :P

Congrats on the car Rodney, I enjoyed my '03 GT a great deal, but these S197 cars are a serious cut above. I've resisted the temptation to get one myself a couple times now.

Come on Les, you know you need to get your car ownership of past cars up to an even 40!! I just looked at my list again and if you add the motorcycles in the list, I'm now at 32 vehicles owned, but I'm not done yet!

If I don't get the Miata fixed before the start of the season, I might have to put the stock intake on the Mustang and join you guys in F Stock.

I would hate to embarras you all with your S197s when the SN95 beats your sorry butts. :poke:
