Finally read through the last several pages of this thread. I'm glad you're enjoying the car. I wish I had the time to drive my car more and attend events like you've done. That said, the "812R" is pretty ridiculous. By your math, my 100% stock 2011 GT made 375 rwhp on the dyno, so I guess that means my 412hp car actually makes 468 hp. I think I'm gonna get some "468R" stickers made for my car.

Also, your writing style is very strange, and it makes your posts difficult to read.

That is, to say, that they are:

"fragmented"

(broken)

{staccato}

FRENETIC

or perhaps a little {[("Schizophrenic")]}


You say that everyone has their own taste and some people will like certain mods, while others won't. However, that seems mildly hypocritical when you're simultaneously scolding people for voicing their opinions on your ridiculous plaque and stickers.

So please, please continue to enjoy your car as much as you seem to. It's clear you're really enthusiastic about it, and at the end of the day, that's what matters. Still, this is the internet. Don't expect to post inflated "crank" numbers backed up by an aborted 12 second pass and not expect people to make fun of you. This is the nature of the internetz. Take it or leave it.

Paul.

Myonly words will be, careful when u mash the go pedal, those tires are street tires as u are aware
Dave, Your right they are street tires for sure.

I just got back from that 50th Mustang event in NC and Saturday all it did was rain again.

That and only 6 32nds of tread depth, plus extremely soft rubber compound all contribute to my final decision on going with the M/T Street Comp tires.

There is No-Doubt the M/Y ET Radial II tires would be the tire of choice for short trips and IMO limited mileage.

In my case driving thousands of miles in shall we say less than favorable weather conditions they I don't think would work best for me use.

I don't really drive usually on the street like a Crazed-Mad-Man so I think all will be okay with the 305/35-20 Street Comp tires.

If they don't there are a lot of other choices out there now in the market place and I'm certainly not above changing to something else if need be.

Safe travels Terry! Post some pics of the event if you don't mind.

Tim, I would but I did not take any.

Cam, I did hear from a fellow that was in a Bullitt Mustang that he met you at the event.

I think he said you might have trailered your Mustang to it.

Sorry I/we missed one another as I would have liked to have said hello in person.

There was no "tigermachine" at the 50th.

I drove our MCS to the hotel and then we rode with Bobby in his 08 Bullitt Mustang back and forth to the events each day.

I saw you walking around with a group, but couldn't break away from a debate/conversation I was in the middle of - once I did get out of it I just missed you. I saw you walking through the Ford tent (on Thursday) wearing your Brenspeed apparel.... you're a hard guy to miss. lol

I met a lot of guys so I'm not sure who that was. There were a couple Bullitt's staying at my Hotel though. I did trailer my GT500 in and then unloaded the car when I got to the hotel on Wed.

That's a shame that the Tmachine didn't make it, many guys I talked to were looking forward to it.

Cam,

I did meet a lot of guys at the event.

And as you say many of them were looking to check out the new "tigermachine".

It is just one of those deals with a completely new machine.

There are things that have to be ironed-out so Brent is having the Bullitt picked up at my house.

Then, they, Brenspeed will make some additional changes to it and I will either drive up and get it or Brent will have it delivered back.

All is good with it and me and in the near future the Bullitt will be at my house once again.

Sorry we were not able to meet up as it would have been nice to have put a face with the text here on S-197.

I'm thinking you might have seen me looking like this or the Brenspeed Gray Hoodie.

Hi Joe,

It is strange sometimes how things work out.

I met people there at the event I had never met before in person.

Then some of the people I thought I would meet I did not.

Saturday was a Disaster with rain and wind all day long.

Thankfully Sunday turned out to be the nicer day !!!

When will you have the car back bud?
Tim,

Here is an honest reply, I don't know.

Just waiting until they complete what they are doing as I know they are covered up with work.

Trust me buddy when I get it back and clean it up I'll drive over and say hello to you at work.

I'm thinking in the near future but have not heard so don't actually know.

We are all different in how we handle things as we both know and I can only speak for myself that I choose to not bug them.

When it is done they will either deliver it back or I can go pick it up.
