Hi guys. I'm new to the forum and I just boughta 2002 Dale Earnhardt Edition Monte Carlo SS. It's practically brand new, it only has 1800 miles on it. I was just wondering what the stock 1/4 mile time would be for this car. Thanks

Hi `Mike & Welcome to the MCF,
Amazing find....Only 1800 miles. Tell us the story on where
you found it & how it was kept.
Mike, you may have the lowest mile Dale E. Edition SS
in the country : ) WoW...
How are you going to use it ? Dailey Driver ? Show Monte ?
Is it kept covered in a garage, or are you going to drive `it,
and enjoy ? Please post some pictures, and post the history
of your new 2002 Dale Sr Monte Carlo SS : )
Wish you good luck, & lots of fun.
`Space

I just starting working full-time a couple of months ago so I wanted to have a reliable car. I plan on washing it every weekend and waxing it about every 2 months to keep it in that showroom condition. I tried to post some pics but it said the files were to large. I'll have them up whenI figure it out.

When you go to upload your photos, it usually gives you the max file size.
Also read the top thread in the New Member's Forum named, "How To Post Photos Here"
But here's a couple more common one's:

Avatar- can be a maximum of 145 x 145 pixels or 25k, in jpg or gif formats only.

Photo Gallery - create your ownphoto gallery in the photo gallery section using the link at the top of the screen under the mustang in the K&N ad. Your pics can be a maximum of 400k each and you get a total of 2000k of space, so take a look at some of the photo galleries and click on the properties of the pics to give you an idea of what size you prefer. My pics are 640 x 427 pixels and about 150k each.

Adding a pic to your sig - use a photo hosting site like photobucket, and put the link to your pic in the signature area of your profile.

Hope this helps.

Oh yeah, I forgot...
Using a program like photoshop is great for quickly re-sizing your pics. You may also want to crop as much of the unnecessary background/edges as possible. This allows you to make the subject of your pic as big/recognizable as possible.

And one other piece of info I just got reminded of... the site's autosensor sensors out the word t-i-t-l-e-d, and will look like titled.

Someone corrected me a few weeks back and told me the 02 was the Dale edition and not the "Intimidator" which was only made on 04. I'm confused.

That is correct. Alot of people call the 02's Intimidators as well for some reason.

Anyway both of them Kick AZZZ!!!
