One week away! Can't wait. Is anybody planning to go on the Thursday Night Fun Run?? I can make it, but it would have to be an "up and back" trip for me (From home to MAM, Fun Run, Downtown party, then back home the same night). I've done it before, but if no other XLRs are going to be in...

It'll breathe a little better but the primary restriction is at the throttle body. Without a tune you probably won't feel the difference. The supercharger whine will be a little louder, but that's about it without a tune. My question is will it fit with the Volant CAI? The D3 Stage 2 is a...

A couple years ago I sent my third brake light to a local guy to replace the LEDs. He fixed mine, but refused to ever do another XLR because its a sealed unit. The LEDs can only be accessed by cutting the entire assembly in half and then re-gluing it back together. So keep in mind that...

And now I have four.... My mother passed away in April. She and my dad met when they were both in the Army. After they married, she got got out, but Obama sent me a letter with her flag anyway.

Great tip, but you didn't say why. I found out the hard way that if you try to work on the lamp with it still connected, the bolts will cut/scratch the fender/bumper with the slightest movement. I used a bath towel underneath to keep it from happening again.

We couldn't get the D3 headers I bought to seal sufficiently with my level of boost. So we hand-made a set of 1 3/4" primaries long tube headers and installed them with Billy Boat FCOR-0432 C6 Z06 3" X-pipe and Billy Boat FCOR-0466 C6 Z06 3" Fusion axle-back exhausts. I lucked out at...

:chuckle Sorta Kinda. If you only knew..... You had to be there to really appreciate it :chuckle

Great meeting you Eric. This event was a great time. Really glad to see my XLR family again after such a long & trying year. Great pics! Mind if I borrow a few for my facebook page?

Saw a Crimson Pearl cruising through Forest Park (St Louis) last nite around quarter to eight. I wasn't in Elwood and wasn;t close enough to the road to see the driver, even with his top down.

Blomington Gold 2014 I just happened to be in the neighborhood, so I dropped by Bloomington Gold this afternoon. For a Friday afternoon, the crowd was small, but all the vendors had setup shop and the swap meet was plentiful. The big show is tomorrow,I just needed to stop by and pick up a few...

I just tell everyone, "$50K cash, and I'll walk home." And I don't hide the fact that it's been raced hard and often with records and championships all over the country. The racing stuff usually shuts them up. No takers, yet.

Under "same", you can add spring assemblies (both front and rear) right down to the ride height adjustment bolts and the exhaust tunnel shields and mid-pipe. Under "similar", add wheels, XM, Nav, and some engine accessories.

Glad you had a good time. If you're not going to Montana, you might want to look into the Mid-Ohio race as well. Even better accommodations with the huge treehouse-style viewing stand, infield parking, and another great race.

First thing I modded! Then added boost and cooling.

A little birdie told me the HUD will display 186MPH. Then she told me to slow down or she was going to call the cops. The poor Hemi Challenger in my rear view never stood a chance in a 50 roll. :reddevil

I try not to drink too much when I'm driving so I opted for a little 6 can REFRIGERATOR. Gotta have my beer ICE cold even after hours of driving. :D

My street tires are 255/40/18 (8.5w) front and 275/40/18 (9.5w) rears. I run 34 up front and 36 in rear for highway use. My race tires are 265/35 front 285/30 rear all 9.5w and yes the pressures are all over the place, as high as 40 or as low as 28, lefts and rights also differ based on track...

Good luck with "rattle can" chrome paint, Dan. I've tried three different brands on my "V" grille I made for my Eldorado. and none of them are worth the tin can they came in. Even if it does stick and maintain its sheen, that paint can't handle the abuse of the front of the car, i.e., bugs...

Don't do it! Don't do it! The D3 ECM is a waste of several hundred dollars! It's much cheaper to install the stage 1 and stage 2 together, then find yourself a good engine tuning shop to dyno tune the car. You get almost twice the horsepower over the ECM module and a good tuner can better...

PJ & I will be there. Looking forward to it.
