Tasca Ford Fest at New England Dragway. I'll be there probably both Saturday and Sunday. I can bring them with me if you want to pick them up.

I need to get the Mustang into the dealership to get the oil changed (my last free one) and to have some condensation in the rear left marker light looked at. I may also, finally, have the time to get that nick in the rear bumper fixed from that love tap all the way back in June 2012. I just need to get my new Alfa Romeo 164LS inspected so I can take it to work.

Nice Alfa!

Finally fixed my leaky axle tube seal today!!! Put new wheel bearings and seals on both side. Not too bad a job. Soooooooooo much quieter now I love it.

Alfa intake runners make me wet. polish those bad boys up!

Getting rid of the exterior mods this weekend, then its onto taking off the go fast type stuff.

Also, the more and more I think of it, I may be moving to the dark side when it comes time to get another car... :/

No need because I'm getting bigger ones! The 164LS (FWD) makes 210hp. The 164 Quadrifoglio (AWD) makes 230hp. The only difference engine-wise between the two is the 164Q has larger diameter intake runners. So swapping in 164Q runners will net me a 20hp increase and still look shiny!
