Just another Mustang...
I'll be moving to the Tampa area some time later this year and just wanted to get a feel for the Tampa racing scene. I know everytime I'm in town I see a good mix of nice cars rolling around. Our racing scene is pretty big up here, check out Columbus Racing
Here is a short video of my Mustang...

I see people out there spending money on the car to improve it … If you spend half that effort just working on your driving skills, making you and the car work together as a team, then you’ll go faster – period. To make the car go a second faster on the track takes a lot more energy and money than making yourself drive it one second faster.

The funny thing is I bought a new black top for it 7 years ago. The top is always down on the street so I just keep putting it off.
At the track that day I was having fuel issues in top gear so had to shut it down at about half track. Best pass that day was 12.16 @ 85mph. Hahaha! That set up was with just a 150 shot, no blower, stock tiune and shifting at 5800.
The dyno video is from a few months ago, it actually blew the head gasket on that pull (notice the ploom of smoke from the driver's side wheel well). This was with the blower on the car, all was good until we tried to make a pull to 6000. At 5000 rpm it made 505rwhp, @ 8psi and a safe 10:1 AFR. When we tried to pull to 6k, with-in 800 rpm it went from 8psi to 15psi and the AFR went to 14:1 and lifted the head. The blower came on and it ran out of fuel. So I took the blower off.
Here is a pic of the carnage...
I'm working on a new short block with 8:1 compression (10.5:1 now), sumped tank, 1/2 fuel lines and rails, with a A1000 pump. Mega squirted with an external BOV.
We'll see what happens....

spur of the moment. I'll be in Tampa in a 9 hours, bought the tickets about 1 hour ago. Coming down to watch the game with my buddy. Or should I say watch Ohio State put the smack down on the Gators! 
I'll be in town for the week. I'd like to get out and check out the street scene.
