Interior
|
|
|
I haven't really done much with my interior. I have the blue interior with bucket seats and all power options. Power windows, door locks, rear window defroster, Shiter on the console. Several years back my ashtray holder got kicked by someone jumping in to my car and it broke apart. so i little by little pulled it apart and saved what i could. But since i don't smoke it didn't bother me to remove it completly. I put a set of AutoMeter crome gages in it with them lighting up red, white and green. I plan to someday have all of the interior redone so it has a better look to it, as of now it looks pretty good but it could always be better. As for the sound system i have an Pioneer in dash cdplayer with kenwood 6x9's and infinty kappa series 3 1/2's in the dash.

Traction?
|
|
|
What's the point of all the horsepower in the world if you can't get your tires to catch traction and propel you past all fords? As of now i only have P215/65R15 on my car but I have been offered P245/55or60R15 tires for 30 bucks a piece with only 500 miles on them. I have trouble with traction becuase of my tires and becuase I don't have posi yet. The only origional option my car didn't come with. I haven't lost to but one car is light to light racing. That lose was in my first race, I raced my friends volkswagon jetta, and when i took off i punched the gas fully. He was almost 4-5 car lengths ahead of me when i finally caught traction right before i had to shift out of second. Needless to say he never wanted to race again. He wanted to be able to say he raced me and won. Well for his new ford ranger 4 banger he has, i raced him with my 4 cylinder 85' S-10 with over a 100,000 miles on it and left behind eailsy.(i don't think a cop would have enen attemped to stop either of us on account of the fact that most other cars on the road were passing us anyways.
