Hopefully both are back on the mend again soon.

When are we going wheeling?

Yeah, kind of eyeballing the GTC Class, car could be 2595 lbs, boosted 4 cylinder and proper suspension. Car would be a riot.

Sorry about the doggo man, what the story? My schnauzer got Cancer, broke me and have not been able to get another one.

Let me know when and Ill be there......after the BS is settled down. On a side note, my mother in law just retired and moved to Goodyear, how far is that from you? Ill be down there often....

Thanks man, its been fun, started out easy and like everything I went too far. I dont blame him, life stuff happens and he is doing what he should spending time with the boys while they still enjoy hanging with dad =)

Thanks dude, your car is outstanding I have really grown to love the 3rd gens. I got to see the Detroit Speed one at SEMA and Optima and was blown away, I would love to check yours out in person some day. This one is definitely going to be less pretty than the others though. I want to beat on it and not worry about chipping engine bay paint.

Good to hear from you guys, glad people are doing well.

Yeah I am just messing.... I always wanted him to get moving on that Fox when I had mine.... but I sold mine so I can't say much either.

Keep plugging away.... there is such a strong Fox body following out there I with some cool cars. Check out the FB group 79-04 Mustang Road Race / HPDE / AutoX if you haven't already.

8 year old Australian terrier tore her back left ACL (CCL technically) which was surgically repaired Monday. This was on way home Tuesday. Shes doing good but has to be kept quiet for a LONG time. Hopefully we are past the worst part.

Goodyear is SW Phoenix and we are in NW Phoenix. Plenty close enough!!

So what do you have now to track with? Ill check that group out, facebook seems to be killing forums and I think thats lame but Ill give it a go. Thanks for the recommendation.

Oh man I have a soft spot for Doggos!!! Saw you posted a vid of her up and walking around the other day so she must be doing better now?

Dude, we will have to connect when I get down there and shoot the ****.

Got the flares on and fender done, MM K member in so I had to roll it out to clean up the filth once it was bolted together.





Clean garage for the first time in months.



Time to get my ass in gear on it, I have one week to get it all done and ready for autocross.....wish me luck.

This kinda fell in my lap - a local retired car that I got for a steal - so the Fox had to go. I like the Fox body style a little better but this one had everything and the track bug has bit me, so there you go....



100% agree on the forums vs FB groups, but the information in the specialty groups is so good it's worth a browse.

That is a wide body Fox! What is your outside of tire to outside of tire measurement there? I think I was at 71" on mine....

[WSSix]

Wow! That fox is wide. Those tires are monstrous too. Have fun with it.

Killer work on the flares! They look great.
