    Consolidated Attendance List - X Bash

    I will be coming as well, but now I need to know if anyone has a helmet I could borrow, or a cheap place to buy one. I'm pretty sure I'm faster than 13.99 seconds (hell my Rustang stock goes faster than that), so now not sure if I'll race. I can't wait though to see that convoy roll out of...

    GN Friendly Shop in Fort Worth

    Hey Rob, Thanks for the tip I had a great time, but I was wondering if you knew the name of the guy in the dragster. I think I know a guy that knows him and wants to rub in his loss. Jesse

    GN Friendly Shop in Fort Worth

    Thanks, I had seen that name and number before but wasn't sure he had a shop or just like to lend a hand. Thanks again for the info. Jesse

    GN Friendly Shop in Fort Worth

    Just wondering if there is a good shop to take my car in to get it worked on. I don't want to take it to someone that doesn't know GNs. I usually go to Dallas to get stuff done but the drive and arranging for a ride is starting to suck. Any input would be great, also Arlington or any of the...

    howard stern off the air

    I'm pretty sure that Clear Channel just owns stock in one of the satellite radio companies. They don't even come close to a majority ownership percentage. You are right however they would love to charge for commercials while you the listener pay to listen to them. Also I heard Buick GN...

    Would rear 4x10 be just as good as 6x9?

    I was the one that stated about the bass being muffled because of the adapters. I put some washers to space them out and got a better response. They are ok but still not what I am used to sound quality wise. The problem with the 4x10's is that only I few companies make them. Also don't but...

    run in with a mach 1

    305 is the stated horsepower, 320 is actually an average of what most drivers are getting on the dyno. Also the torque ups to about 330-350, depending on the car (all of these #'s are at the crank). But of course every car is different and who knows for example: Car and Driver got a 14.1...

    Rules to Enter Texas

    Wow that's an odd reply from someone from California. Isn't that the state that contains San Fransico, and most of the movie industry. I'm afraid if you're going by per capita I think you guys better stock up on the prying hardware. Oh yeah and it's not yawl. Yeeeeeeeeeeeeehaaaaaaww!:D

    Rules to Enter Texas

    Don't forget is that a gun in the passenger seat? Yes it is. Do I have a conceal carry? Yes I do. Car Jack? Yeah I do have one in the back but I'm not taking it out because I'll never get it back in the right way. Texas A&M Class of 2000 WHOOOOOOOP!!!!

    run in with a mach 1

    I have a Mach I also, and they are great cars, but there is nothing like driving a turbo car. There is a guy down here in Texas however that has a turbo on his Mach. They featured it in a Mustang mag and it looks like it'd be baaaad. Hell I've got a stock GN turbo sitting around maybe I'll...

    What depth is needed if 6x9 in rear?

    Also take into account (at least with my experience) that the adapters will fit real snug against the speaker. This makes them sound pretty crappy because they do not have enough room to vibrate for bass. I put a few washers in to space it out, and it was a tight fit in the back, but it fit...

    Emergency Brake Light

    I have a question (concern), my dash red emergency light comes on sometimes when I am braking. I had a Grand Am that did this before and it turned out I was leaking fluid, was out, got a soft pedal, and brakes went out. Needless to say I've checked my fluid level and it is fine for 2 weeks...

    03 cobra run

    Damn straight, I just turned 25 and my insurance on all vehicles went way down. Here's a tip buy a beater tell them it's your daily driver and that the Cobra is a pleasure vehicle. That's what I do on my Mach I and it saves a crap load(The GN is not a beater by the way.)

    03 cobra run

    You guys are missing the best reason the GN is better than the Cobra - Insurance. Insurance on my GN is like 30 bucks (and Vicious V6 could probably back me up on this), the Cobra insurance will kill you every month. Got to love a fast car with non-fast insurance:D
