Got around to using a photo spot I wanted to use for a while.....

One of the local supermarkets by me closed about a year ago and every time I pass it I keep telling myself the loading dock would make a great backdrop. Today I decided to finally take advantage of it.

Great shots. Amazing contrast between the brick and blue. I wish my state had a no front plate rule.

That's awesome, you'd never know what was under there. I'm not sure those 235 P zeroes on the front are going to cut it though!

Me too, but it's never been an issue with this car.

I'm more of a straight line guy, but for twisties I could swap the stock rims on the back, put some Nittos on all 4 corners and move the control arm brackets back to the stock location.

Very nice shots.

Just yesterday I found a business park whose entrance would be an excellent photo backdrop. Problem is, the park is active and I don't know if I'd get in trouble if I went there after hours for some photography. Just got a ticket for doing photography at a vista point after it closed so I'm a little paranoid.

I am slightly impressed, but incredibly aroused.

No lowering done to your car, right? Does the axle sit differently with that LCA relocation?

Ah. Almost forgot. Cobra Jet springs in the back. They lower it about 5/8 to 3/4 of an inch. Fronts are stock. The axle sits the same with the relocation brackets. What they do is change the angle on the control arms for a better instant center for drag racing.

Yes. They're getting to the point where I should take them off, but I want to stick them in a photo album with some pictures.

I don't remember if I saw your car any of the years I went, yet again to be fair the show is 3/4 mustangs so

ahh good to know. sweet that's how low I am, means I can get big meaty tires like that to fit. How is it that those huge rear radials fit on that 9 inch wheel? Does the wheel have to be rated for a massive tire like that?

It's funny. Most of the Carlisle Mustang crowd in the S197 category are quite a bit more into "bling" than I am. Granted I've done some cosmetic stuff to the car, but in comparison it's rather tame. It's funny to watch people not really give the car a second thought until someone they are walking along with takes note of the blower or perhaps the front bumper. I have a good time at Carlisle wandering around without care for 3 days. I go mainly to see other stuff there and perhaps get ideas for my own car. Nothing is better than seeing a part I'm interested in on another vehicle. Going has probably saved me from a couple of mistakes.

Terrific location, and excellent photographs. I like the leaves.
