He also rips on the SS tag. Didn't Ford make an SVT Contour and an SVT Focus? Monte Carlo SS and Colbalt SS would spank those all day. I'm just saying...

Its funny I found this thred I own a mustang and monte both works in progress, but the mustangs almost done. Just today iwas putting the motor, trans, and headers in the car in 1 piece. And it was giving me a lot of grief, so I got online and looked up what's been done before and how to do it well let's just say mustang websites members. Are jerks maybe not all but lots are. For reference google
"C6 in a fox mustang" and see the jerk responces. Btw you can fit a c6 behind a 302 with long tube headers in a fox!!!
Sorry bout going on and on but its kind of funny

That's why I'm a Torino guy... the Torino people are much more friendly, helpful, and just have better personalities than the Mustang people. I think the same is true about us Monte Carlo people vs. the Camaro people... we're just a more mature group. Maybe w'ere not faster... maybe we are, but we care more about our cars and getting the most out of the them in a more friendly way. Some of the older guys at the car shows are good... mellowed out I guess... the newer Mustang people, and a lot of hte ones at the drag strip... they're just jerks though.

I like Mustangs fine, they're a good car... but I've never really been a big Mustang kind of guy... preferred hte Torino's as a kid and when I got to looking into a car for myself, hte Chevrolet Monte Carlo lured me away from the Ford camp.. Ford just didn't have anything that matched it in my opinion... and I loved it's NASCAR heritage.... so I found myself one!

Yeah those Camaro guys can be jerks also. There just mad that they has a car that every one else has also. As for mustangs, I like my foxes "big motor plus little car equals HELLA BURNOUTS "

Set up a password on the computer and just hit windows+L when you leave the computer. That's what I did in college.

Then on my Mac I just set up a hot-corner to turn on the screensaver and that has a password to return from.

You should be able to setup hotkeys for windows for the screensaver and password protect it as well. Atleast you could in win98 (Yea I know...I am getting old)

As for drag racing...I live about 15 mins from the strip so I tell them if they wanna we can meet at the track. Which I perfer anyways...get to line up and it is timed so it is more fair. (Altho....everyone once in a blue moon...I might let it loose on the street)

Most of them responded with curse words and insults.
This is what one said which i think was the funniest since it was what we were talking about.
"Apparently he drives a 3.4L monte carlo. If you're gonna talk ****, at least drive a fast car."
