We may get a few races in the new Ford Dark Horse Series this coming year. Here is my son's Mustang for TA2, and a photo of the Miata below that.
So let's hear about and see your cars.

After 9.5 years of my wife driving her 535i we upgraded her to a 2024 X5 xDrive40i. Vast improvement and suddenly I'm popular around the house again.
The mild hybrid makes a significant improvement off the line compared to her old car. Not bad for a tall station wagon.

Your popularity is short lived my friend. Never understood that one!
For PM inquisitive minds. The hot side of things wrapping up on the Cuda' and just about ready to send for ceramic coating.

I would hang that in my living room.
(Well, that's if I had any say in what goes in the living room)
Is it still OK to make comments about another gentleman's pipes?
For those that don't know (me), what's the functional purpose of ceramic coating? And what parts get coated?
Nice turbos, BTW.
It helps keep exhaust temperatures inside of the piping reducing under-hood temperatures and makes better use of the heat for turbocharging. Surface temperature of the coated tubing is reduced over 100 Deg.
Holy moly, 100 deg differential is a lot.

@ttmott Tom, I only see one waste gate on the system, I thought you needed one for each turbo? Or is that engine < 750hp.
Looks amazing and I can't believe you had Roush build it for you, equally amazing. To say I am jealous doesn't quite cover it. Please post more engine pics when you can so I can live vicariously through you and your engine post's!

One also on the other side. Just haven't gotten to it yet. We'll be in the 1800 HP range on E85. It will also have a calibration for around 1100 on premium.

I saw that it helps, but I don't remember it being like that in the past.

When you upload a pic you are given a choice to do what you did or post full size like this. Just hit the insert tab in the picture.

That was glass. It's now out in Colorado. I sold it before I moved north.
