That's awesome shelby. I can't wait to take my car to Bristol for street fights. Finally getting my head above on trading cars again. I found this beauty and trying to work something out on it. May have it by next week. ya never know.
Only been at work for 2 months now and I'm already to tell them all to shove it.
For two months I have been working till 7pm and every Saturday, then they claim the "low man on the totem poll" bullshit. I was talking to the one other "GMT" there who I am supposed to be able to swap shifts (2 weeks openings/2 weeks closing) and alternating Saturdays. He told me he had a deal with the Store manager to work early and have Saturdays off and thats what he is set at. They NEVER [][][][][][]g told me that shit, they actually said I would have a Saturday a month and a Monday off every now and then so I can have two days in a row off (currently off Tuesdays) and have not gotten jack shit of that deal. So someone opens their mouth that I was pissed about the schedule (the manager knows that I'm pissed over a week ago) and now he decides to threaten my job if I "bring down the moral" of the guys in the shop.
So anyway I see this whole job going nowhere fast, everyone there has the "I'm not doing it" mentality so I get stuck with this crap and now the guy who I'm supposed to work with is being a titty baby b/c I actually have ONE day (today) where I got off at 3 while the rest of the week it's till 7!!
On the search for a job again unless this crap gets straight, I won't be leaving until a new one is found but I know I won't stay and take this shit.
You made my day to see you post, how you been! I'll have to get my tools out and then take your advice, when are you due for some time off? Be sure to let me know when you'll be in town.
Oh I'll do it. I think I'm coming back stateside in Nov. but I'm not to sure. I most defi will have to yell at you when I'm back in L.A. Things are pretty good here though. Just been doing my little 8 hour shift, & going to the gym twice a day everyday damn near it. How's everything other than a crappy job going?
Other than work its all good, just been hanging around my car has been put on the back burner to paintball. Been having a blast at that for a while now, maybe you can come show us some of your Army skills when you come back!
My local track makes you buy a package to get pics. The only time I will ever buy a package is if my car pulls the front wheels, and that's not likely to happen soon.
Okay My car is getting way spoiled. I just installed a Resonator to my exhaust and it sounds much better not being the loudest car on the road. My ST170 headlights came in and Im piecing them together. I just bought new Team Dynamics wheels (uber expensive), Putting in Royal Purple gear oil in today. Buying new tires for Autox and Street, And just bought 2 corbeau seat harnesses for me and my girl for Autox. This car will not be getting anything else for a VERY long time.
I love how diffrent the srt neon looks verses the reg neon. Does the svtf and reg focus look that much diffrent???/ Was that at silver dollar dragstrip?? shelby
well not to mention also that's a first gen... but yes there is a huge difference in look between a base neon and srt. I dont think there is as much of an aggressive difference between the base and svt focus.
and yes that is SDR, i only live about 30 min from it.
Believe it or not a SVT stands out so much more than even a modded regular ZX3 like mine, the way the front bumper molds with the rest of the car makes more of a statement.
Got actually drive the car today. Pulls strong all the way up to 5500, where I want it to cut off. Got it titled and tagged. And it will be insured tomorrow. Gotta bleed the back brakes, and fix some kind of line i've never noticed before that's causing gas to leak. Then its time to smoke people at the track while smoking ciggs on the street.
