BFH here and out they come
you had best kick his ass.!!!!!!
Hmm aren't those new Focuses pretty quick?
It's a Fiesta ST. 1.6 Turbo and runs a 15.0 from the factory. He's a damn good driver so it'll be close.
Just don't break anything
IDK...pretty close...all i know is that ST looks gay as all hell lol
Mother eff.
So I washed the car, wiped it down really well, clay barred it and then broke out the PC to do a round of rubbing compound. Not even 1/3 of the way through the car the velcro backing started coming loose on my yellow pad. I only have one yellow pad right now too. I really don't feel like doing this by hand. It may just have to wait. :mad:
Clay what did you run at the strip? Might wanna practice you reaction times and launches.

Wash, clay with Optimum green apple detail spray, Meguiars ultimate detailer to rid of residue, 5.5 orange lake country flat with Meguiars M101 foam cutting compound.....
then 5.5 white flat pad with Ultimate polish. Ultimate wax now waiting for a few hours to top with M26.
Also used some Turtle wax black endura on the tires. They look like I just rubbed em down with brake fluid.
I usually have good luck with speed 6 on my 7424 unless i DUH and lift it......what a mess
Lake Country. :mad:Quote:

Clay need a tune first? Lol
The bolt holding the LCA to the sub frame. It's a T55. It was seized to the metal sleeve of the bushing. While the left side dropped right out, the right was a total time waster.Quote:

So now that's changed out finally and no more ses light. I also ran it with the downpipe off..sounded terrible. Also noticed one of the exhaust hangers rusted off so I welded that back on. Now I'm thinking of doing my mirror turn signals and puddle lights today
Aren't capable? Seized bolt?

Just every bolt, I have a weak impact gun here that won't take the bolts off, and the socket cracked too (cheap sockets I inherited)Quote:

Painted my calipers and finished changing my dented fender out last night!
Yeah if I had the right sockets I would do that. Ill get my snap-on impact sockets from work and my good impact gun and it will take every bolt off instantly.
Also found out today that this last winter did a good number on my rockers...They're looking pretty bad now. You can see it when opening the doors, if I feel up to it I may try and tackle replacing them.
