I'm back!

Maybe you guys remember me, I'm the former owner of this 2009 SS/TC. Was full bolt ons, tuned on E47, daily driven on Mickey Thompson drag radials. Such a fun car that I miss like crazy.

I had a truck for awhile but missed the feel of a car. So I ended up buying my first new car that you see below. It's a 2014 Track Pack 5.0 premium model that I've tinkered with a little , Airlift suspension, full bolt ons, etc. It's been a blast, and will end up with a blower before the year is out.

Still, I greatly miss my SS/TC and I was in need of a daily driver, so I ended up with a base 2010 Cobalt for pretty much free. I obviously know it's nothing like my old SS, but I'm enjoying the money it's saving me on gas. Looking to buy some SS/TC suspension and that's about it.

It's good to be back! Hopefully I see some familiar screen names around here, haven't logged on in a couple years I think.

Thanks guys, I hated every Mustang with the exception of the 03/04 Cobra up until the 13/14 model came out and I fell in love.

Not a thread jack man, I love talking about the SS. I was on small DR's, I think they were only 245/35 on the stock 18's or something. Stock suspension too from what I remember. Can't remember if I had them on with the coils or not

They were 245/40R18 ET Street 2's. Just checked

They had a bit of spin from a 40 roll, but hooked up quicker than anything else I had used
