Hey, I'd like to join LSSHOC

[cyanmauve]

Hey,
I live in Waco, and I am interested in joining LSSHOC. Where do ya'll meet and do you hav e any cruise nights, shows, track days, etc? Also, I was reading abou the SVT On Track Day. My fater has a 2000 SVT Contour that we took up to TMS last year on the track day. Great experience. There was an auto cross, a 600 ft (I guess) slalom, and of course the infield race track. Sever Bondurant instructor were present, and the SVT trailer was there to showcase the Boss Mustang and all the SVT products. Two Lightnings and two Cobras were avaliable to test drive. Unfortunately, I was too young to drive in the events last year, but this year is different. I'm going to show the SVT Contours, Lightnings, and maybe even a few poorly driven Cobras what a 91+ with suspension upgrades (and hopefully 96 brake upgrade by that time) can do.

91+, Konis/Eibachs, SFCs, strut tower braces
all polyurethane, rear control arm brace
Firestone SZ50s, Hi Revs Jr clutch, K&N
Police subframe bushings, 2 12' Rockford Phosgate subs, interior neons (I promise that they aren't gaudy)

Thanks

Hey, we would love to have you join us on our next get together! We are a loosely knit group that has get-togethers twice a year, and have a blast doing so! Every once and a while we might have a track day, or other things planned for the members in the Austin/Waco/Dallas area to come often joining another car club because of our smaller numbers. If you would like to visit a more trafficked forum for the club, go do topica.com and search for LSSHOC and join! Love to see you our at the next gathering! thumbs_u

Sounds cool. Is there a membership fee?

 

[SHOfun 93]

Er..uh..YEA..please email your $100/year dues to...HAHA just kidding man...nah..no membership fee, just keep in touch via the internet and clear the calendar for the get togethers!

 

[cyanmauve]

Ok. feel free to email me @ [email protected]. If you've got any idea when the next shindig is, give me a call (well, an email, anway). Are there any LSSHOC decals, membership cards, ets? I'm just looking for somethng cool to put on my rear window to compliment my other shameless advertisements for performance products.
Thanks

 

[SHOfun 93]

Well Martin had a guy that made decals down in Houston for us, but so far it has fallen through. Just keep track of the topica.com site, and we will post the details when Martin and I get them together. Probably in the fall when it cools a bit more, and it will be easier on our shos. Looking like Oct or so if I had to guess..

Go to the Topica mailing list and subscribe to the LSSHOC mailing list. That is how most of the communication takes place.

hey sweet, im a member now!! Cant wait to meet all of you. By the way, i got in a big argument with that shop i told yall about and after giving him the 8th vin number... they agreed to install my headgasketts if i pay them 50 bucks more. I think the whole "my sister is a lawyer" line actually worked! So, they will be picking up my 91 MTX tomorow morning. *sigh of relief

 

[Osiris]

When will the next G2G be, anyway?

I remember someone mentioning that it will be somewhere near San Antonio, is this true?

I'll be in Denver ( very possibly trying to wrangle a 550 HP Mustang , heheh ) September 8th-11th. I hope this isn't the time, I'd like to be there again.

 

[SHOfun 93]

Damien,
Probably late September when it is a bit cooler for our cars to be out streching their legs. Martin and I will keep the club posted.

I wanna play too! SHO me what ya got killa. Welcome!

Baby L!
He speaks!
Did you find the Gen I of your dreams?
Ma Ma M wink

 

[SHOfun 93]

Laurence! Glad to see you are still alive and kickin! I ALSO see that the mod list for that sweet Lightning is getting longer! Hope to see you real soon!

 

[DfwSho]

I'm still alive!

Actually, I have my eye on a real nice white 91 SHO. It belongs to a close friend of mine in Missouri. Chrome slicers, plus hood, rod shifter, and other goodies. It would make a great daily driver. Hopefully, I'll have it by the middle-to-end of September.

Mark me down for the next Run. Jen is in the process of buying a 98 C5, but why bring a Lightning or a Vette to a SHO run? SHO all the way! I miss my SHO bro's! frown

DfwSho:


I miss my SHO bro's!

Why is that people sell their SHO's then a year or so later they want another one? The car must have some special powers that it makes the person want another. Weird.

 

[DfwSho]

Mexican, it sure ain't the speed.

I miss the gas mileage, the 4 doors, the cheap ass tires, and most of all, I miss the damn thing braking down on me. I also miss throwing thousands of dollars into mods to gain a whopping 2 fwhp.

Ahh, SHO ownership. Can't beat it.

In all seriousness I miss the car, plain and simple. I could buy an Altima or some other recently produced high-powered 4-door, but a Gen 1 at less than $3000 is hard to pass up.

 

[SHOfun 93]

So true Baby L! If you find a cherry gen 1 around you can get all the great luxury features for under $3500? Grab that sucker up quick! thumbs_u

 

[snowwind1990]

Yea, Mexican, we had a discussion a longggg time ago about the possession of the SHO...seems that as they left the factory assembly line, one special person at each FoMoCo plant had a job title to do nothing more than issue the final curse to each and every S H O he laid hands on!
We have tried to locate this individual by using our highest upper-level spies to no avail...they have seemed to simply disappear...if you ever happen to meet one or hear about where one could be found..let us all know..
Now you too know the secret of the S H Os..Long live our cursed bulls.
Ma Ma M eek!

 

[Wildstar]

I think its some damned chemical or drug that Yamaha put in these cars. Just can't seem to not spend huge amounts of money on them...

Or at least that's been my experience for the last 12+ years!

 

[kaoticSHO]

I just don't know what you are talking about.
