Just curious.

Was looking at my poor pitiful 5.4 Truck this morning sitting in my barn and debating on draining the gas, charging the battery, getting some new tires and getting it inspected.

Welcome back!!! I thought you were long gone. GoOn3 is making some nice numbers with the Procharger. 520ish to the wheels. Wish he would take that beast to the track but he has got some more important issues to deal with. Over at F150forums there is a whole thread around the 1/4 mile times of the new 5.0 trucks. Makes me sick lol. Those guys are running mid 11's to low 12's with just boost (13psi) and slicks.

Nah I'm still around. Had some big changes in my life and just not been very active. Just now getting back to messing with cars again.

Bought a 14gt and picked up my 15gt last weekend. 14 will have about 1400rwhp and the 15 around 750rwhp. Sucks having them both down at the same time, but both should be up and running in a few weeks.

It's keeping my mind off things that is for sure.

Just sucks I only got to play with my 15gt for a few hours and 70 miles before I handed it to the fabricator.

My 14gt I played with for a few weeks, before it got stripped down to nothing.

Here is my 15gt with only 9 miles on it.

The 14 is not a "track only" car, but yeah, it's just a toy.

15 is the new daily.
