    With 4:11 gears, I'd say your next wise investment might be a trailer. I have 4:30 gears and I make several long trips a year but only because I can tow it. You can often pick up a decent used trailer for under $1000. It may not be feasible for you yet but might be something to start thinking about. :)

    I do admit, that is the BEST bunch of Mav/Comets I have EVER seen in one place. Good showing guys and gals. Sorry to hear about your car Tammy. Thomas will fix it for ya. Thanks for the pictures Ken & Derrick.

    I liked this Mav!
    What I thought was really trick, was the dash treatment. Anyone have a picture of that? Thunderbird instruments.:thumbs2:

    mavdog71 called me today and said it was an awsome showing. also told me of the incident with tammy's car. i'm sure tom and tammy will have it back to perfect soon. just glad nobody got hurt and the car was driveable. again, the cars looked awesome. wish i could have been there. maybe next year.(y)

    Good showing guys. I guess I'll have to try to get there next year. Had a blast last year. I did manage to call Derick, and give him a bad time, but not the same, as in person....LOL Good looking cars for sure. You all did us proud.....

    Just cause I didn't drive my Mav this year doesn't mean there are no stockers here in So.Cal. Mine was just sleeping at home. Hey, wait a minute. You have a stock 6 cyl car too! Why didn't you drive it?
