Well it is nothing major just painted my black dash trim dark silver/grey. I like it much more than I thought I would.

I guess it's been a while since I've logged on here. I've been so busy with work that I don't even bother opening up a browser any more unless it's to put on google play music.

Anyways I haven't done a whole lot when it comes to car stuff. Slipped out to one C&C and continued to realize how burnt out I am on walking and staring at cars. The beginning of March I took the car to the dragway with a few buddies. I ended up running a 12.6 on my slicks spinning off the line because I didn't even burn the water off of them. I thought that was pretty good for intake+tune M6. If I had perfect driving conditions I know the car has low 12's in it.

Last weekend I went to VIR for the SVT Superfest show and parade laps. I went to VIR in December for the charity laps and loved it so I knew this would be worth the drive. We got to ride the track for about 45 minutes. No passing but people were still ripping it down the track. I think we got in trouble actually for going too fast. I know I hit at least 120 on the straight every time we hit it and I wasn't even close to the fastest car out there so I'm sure there were people hitting 140-150 on it.

Aside from that not much else honestly besides a little cruising around various places. No other mods. Until this weekend that is.

My newest mod:

2018 Kona Blue Mustang GT Premium. 400a pack, 10 speed auto, performance package and the smart and safety package. I think I got a pretty fair deal on it. I was putting a few dealers against each other. I got it for 38,500 before TTL.

I took it up on the mountains yesterday to see how the auto does. I will just see I don't think I am going to miss my M6 MT82 as much as I originally though. And I will also say, I was one of the people on here bashing the 2018 and the hype over it. Now I'm starting to believe there was no hype.. the car is a monster and feels every bit faster than my 2016 was with the intake and tune. The A10 is absolutely crazy.

Here was my first actual hard pull with it yesterday evening. This was just in S+ mode, manually shifting with the paddles.

I also didn't even have the car for 24 hours and got a rock chip on the way home from the mountains on the highway... But Geico is sending Safelite out to my work tomorrow to fix it. Since it's not bad damage I think it's free for me.

Pictures bellow in order per above lol

A 48k MSRP for about 42k OTD sounds like a great deal, going to have to update your IG name though unless you're drinking some weird milk I don't know about!

Tried to buy a set of take-off Brembo's on eBay. Got screwed with a last second bid because I didn't know there is a "confirm bid" page that loads after you place it and ran out of time.

Bummer man. I'm a eBay pro now but I had to learn the hard way too. Max bid with 15 seconds left has never done me wrong. If I don't win a bid that way, it wasn't meant to be.

The dyno is done. Best Run 411/388, so what I was expecting with the mods in my signature: FP PP2 and Exhaust only.
