Since the last remaining open track Cobra in this club is no more it has been decided that Club Cranky is now a Mustang Open track club. Since the Cobra has now replaced the Corvette as the car of choice among the show and shine set we will no longer accept Cobra owners into our exclusive club. The rules are the same as always ( if you have to ask the rules you are not an Open tracker and the membership is closed for you) only now you gotta have a Mustang or at least a Mustang replica like the one FEZ has.IP: 68.193.103.22 |

I guess this means I gotta keep my 95R for a while and keep Roger company. IP: 69.136.102.77 |

John W Since you are already a member you are grandfathered into the club just like all the existing members. No need to buy a fake Mustang.IP: 68.193.103.22 |

I just got a note from Joe R and he still has his Cobra but I can't remember the last time it was on the track. Terry still has his Cobra but it hasen't been on the track in years so it is now a show queen.IP: 68.193.103.22 |

I'm still awaiting the local track Libertybell Motorsports to open, at that time I'll buy another track whore for myself.Then again, if I could find a manager or sales person for my shop, perhaps I'd be out with you track whores now....... Bill S.

Thanks Roger.You guys need someone with 100hp to beat up on. Who's Mustang was the blue fastback body built around the Cup Car chassis? I'd take that one. Still think about that car. [This message has been edited by JohnWechsler (edited October 24, 2009).] IP: 67.86.216.66 |

That's Rich Alperts Mustang. I have not seen him all Summer so I don't know if he still has the car or maybe he just took a break from Open Tracking (can be expensive you know)IP: 68.193.103.22 |

Well, being I have a Mustang, I guess I can still hang out with you guys, just too bad you'll is soo far away!!!!!Roger, your gonna like the Stang.....I've driven 2 similar cars on track and one was a full blown race car, the other was a street car with some suspension mods and a fairly stock engine. Both were a pleasure to drive, with power rack/pinion steering and power 4 wheel disc brakes.. The Cobra brake package is awesome and really works well with any decent race pads. The suspension mods are too numerous to name and fairly inexpensive...... You is gonna like it!!!!!!!!!!! David IP: 98.67.134.248 |

Dave, Since most of the Cranky guys already have Mustangs it is only natural that since I now have one that our club now becomes a Mustang O/T club. All those guys who ran with us and did the Club Cranky thing are still members even if they don't care to own a Mustang. I am going to start collecting the necessary parts to install the Dart and when I get tired of being passed by everybody I'll drop the moder in. RD IP: 68.193.103.22 |
