Preston, there is a HUGE following here in Northern Virginia. Get togethers
at least once a month, parties, and a bunch of other stuff. Not sure how far
you are, but we have quite a few people who make the trek from Richmond and
the tidewater area. E-mail me privately for more info.

hehe... I know how you feel!
I'm from the Hampton Roads area of Virginia. We have weekly GTG's in
Virginia Beach. So far, it's only a small number (between 5-15 cars). I
hope it's something that grows, cuz I know they are out there.
You should check out www.vwvortex.com/forums.html and ask the
If you really want to kill them, I know some guys who know some guys.

Okay, correct me if I'm wrong:
I disconnected the black/brown boot behind the throttle body. This is for
the O2 sensor, correct? It's just one wire.
I hooked up a voltmeter between the terminal on the black connector and
ground. It read .6 volts at idle. It also read .6 volts when I cracked

A mustang can also handle really well if it's properly setup. It's a
primitive suspension design, but so is the suspension in OUR cars. ;)

For all of u guys that have an electric handheld waxing/buffing/polishing
tool what is the best make/brand to get? Also, what diameter is best for
automotive use?
I'm tired of waxing my car by hand...takes forever.

Never had any problems with mine while auto-xing or hard street driving.
Check your fluid level and hoses first, I know when mine were stock they had
a tendency to crimp in the area coming out of the front of the resevoir,
which starves the pump.

A friend had a '66 GT-350H when we were in college - now THAT was a
Mustang
That was the first car I ever rode in that would catch rubber in all
4 gears. I only got to drive it once and had a helluva time getting
off the line - probably b/c the rear tires were smoking so heavily at

I used to have an 89LX and it was fun but pales in comparison to the

VW in performance, only in tight twisties can a VW keep up. It's like
comparing GT and GTS cars to each other. Only thing is, most mustang
enthusiasts d

Like stated earlier, there's a wide variety of Mustangs out there. Yeah,

It all depends.
