Re: im gonna be on national ------- TV!

we could have won... You dont think hmt had us cheating a little?

the first episodes will be on at the end of march. You should see us in the commercial. Our cold air intake was for the wrong car, so we kept it real and used cardboard and ducktape instead of the fancy chrome plate that blocks the hole in the fender.

about the turbos- All i have to do is get past the first round... Second round of shooting you get $2500 and 6 hrs. I dont think even that is enough to do a turbo kit, but probably a sc. If by some sweet change we go all the way, we are allowed to pick up extra people on our team and i think you get $7500 something in the third round. A pair of nice ------ hairdryers will be hanging proud under his ugly *** hood. Regardless of the outcome of the show, we are gonna have a ------- blast.

Well, at least you got to run without having this problem blow up in your face. Yes, they have IRS...but the clunk sound is the diff mounting bracket bouncing off the frame/body of the car. It's a common problem on these cars, dealership usually has some upgrade as a recall of sorts, but it's a cheap fix and most of them break again anyway. Tell your buddy to look into a solid rear (a.k.a. ford 9") if he plans on doing anything serious with the car...or unless he wants to replace the diff and mount brackets every couple months. :P
