No prego's that I know of, but I have a few bikes you might like. Ever thought about a Ducati 900SS SP? Of course its been worked over like my race bikes, but this one I use for back road fun. Its never been on the track. I put dual plug heads on it, racing coils, a stage 2 kit for the modified air box. olihns racing rear shock with ride height adjustment, ohlins internals up front, etc. Should give you a very big grin! On the dyno it pumped out 82 ft pounds of torque. I'll be up that way in april for the ama races and I'll bring it along in the trailer. If anything else, we can just hit some roads around your neck of the woods. |

Well... the lease just ended on my 2004 S60 ... so I know am trying to rip the treads off of my winter tires in my 1998 Volvo S70 T5 SE... this will be my little tuner project. I should be able to take it onto the track this summer. My last outing onto the drag strip I timed the 1/4 mile in 15.2 seconds at 98.7 mph. (0 to 60 in 6.7) Not too bad for a family car!hand6.gif...that is stock! I will be adding a turbo chip and large exhaust... bigger brakes and some cosmetic upgrades (HID lights!!) I am hoping to drop a second off the 0-60 and aobut 40 more hp. Not sure how much money to spend on a 10 year old car with 240,000 kms on the clock! Cheers! |

I like to do the drags also with the family car. Its alot of fun. Your time are very good. You might want to upgrade some suspension components 1st to lower your et. My bike does a 6.22 in the 1/8, and a 9.65 in the 1/4. 0 to 60 is 2.6 seconds. |

The lease on my Honda Pilot runs out soon, so I've been looking for a replacement. Right now I'm leaning toward the 2008 Subaru Tribeca, which is due out late this month. They've cleaned up the ugly nose and rear, plus added a 3.6 liter "boxer" engine. I test drove the 3.0L 2007 model and liked it a lot. It doesn't look very big but it's actually 1+" longer than the Pilot. We'll see...  |

MINI is the name of a Cowley, England-based subsidiary of BMW as well as that of a car produced by that subsidiary since April 2001. The car, designed by Frank Stephenson, is marketed as a "retro" redesign of the original Mini, which was manufactured by the British Motor Corporation and its successors from 1959 to 2000. The name is written in capital letters to distinguish it from its predecessor. It is sometimes called 'The BMW MINI' or 'The New MINI'.

I am also a Ducatista (but I'm more of an Alfista). I ride a Monster 800 i.e. - very often too, go to work with it from April until November (I'm in Toronto, Canada). If this global warming thing works out, I'll be able to extend that period for motorcycle commuting even further. But, alas, I'm a skeptic, so I keep a fun car also, a red Alfa Romeo 164S. Just in case the alarmists are right I also have a Bianchi racing bicycle and a Fuji commuter that costs less than the next watch I plan to buy. |

New wheels- 2008 Volvo XC70. I had a 2002 xc70 that I traded towards this last month. The '08 is based on the S80 platform and is a lot more car than the '07 and earlier model in terms of ride, fit and finish. Most importantly it has built in DVD! Inline 6 vs 5 cylinder, 6 spd auto vs 4 spd. The color is called premium silver, but it is really more of a light blue. Cool color that varies with the light  |

How about this? This is my pride and joy! Its a 1953 John deere model R Diesel. The first diesel JD made. I collect antique tractors and also have a restoration business. I do all my own painting. This was a total mess when I got it. I did a complete restoration on it. I had the pump volume increased 30% and the rack setting is at 18. Stock setting is 10. with the 30% its a 21 rack setting! When she's hooked to a sled she throws fire and plenty of black smoke. I will have to post pics of what I haul it with now and my future hauler.

watchguru wrote: hey scott, Anytime you want a lesson let me know!:) I used to be into cars but found this tractor hobbie. Its like collecting watches, once you get one you need another and another and so on. You just need a big building to store them and a good truck to haul 'em. The people are the best thing about the hobbie. Real "down to earth". Anytime you need help there is about 10 guys there to help. It also is a family thing. Alot of times you have 3 generations or more participating in the shows. If you ever hear of a tractor show near you I strongly suggest you attend. You wont be afraid to take the family. Its such a great hobbie I drove all the way from PA to Calgary to bring home a tractor. 4600 miles round trip with 15,000 pounds behind me. It is though starting to get like the car hobbie. The tractors are getting more expensive to buy. Some of the rare ones are starting at $60K to$200k to buy. Too rich for my blood. Oh well, I will just stick to my putt putt JD's Scott |

Ok, Heres what i haul my junk with. Its an '02 superduty with at 7.3 TURBODIESEL. Love taht diesel. I am getting ready to put 4 in. exhaust on it and a programmer. Then, when thats all done, NOS!yourock.gif I love the fuel economy and then the power to pull when you need it. My goal is to get it in the low 14's hi 13's in the 1/4. Next is my future hauler when its restored. 1952 REO F50 I plan on repowering it, lenthening the frame to add a period sleeper. I think it would be neat hauling the old tractors with the old truck!

Fast and fun. A 1996 540i LE 6-speed with a stonking V8. As the British say - its "pukka". I had bikes for a while (including a Ducati 750 chopper, but thankfully there aren't any photos to prove it), but I was nearly taken out by a couple of young guys in a pickup while minding my own business one day, so after that I decided that I would rather have metal all around me for a while. But bikes get in your blood, don't they. That's why I am going to get a Harley Fat Boy in a year or two. Or after I get tired of collecting watches.  Cheers!

My "other-other" car is a 76 Stingray that is currently being nursed back to health and getting prepped for a trip to the paint booth for a quick and dirty touch up.
