I've got mine up there and really enjoy the way you can link imbedded videos and the way the pictures are shown in a album/slide show format.

There definitely needs to be more Thunderbirds out there. Last I check there were 26 of them, a Cougar and a couple Mark VIIIs. Some more that are "no longer owned" but for the most part, there's not a lot when compared to vehicles like the Mustang or Camaro. There's hundreds of them out there.

The challenges are definitely fun. And they've got good give-aways for the month long winner of challenges. (Who wins the most) I'm going to hit it pretty hard next month. I doubt that I'll be the winner, but it's a good way to showcase our cars!

I haven't had anyone challenge either of my 'Birds - but had 3 challenges with the truck - won 2 of them too :D

[pablon2]

I got ya already!

I know you did...I was just hijacking your thread for self-promotional purposes....ah, I mean for MN12 promotional purposes. :D You gotta challenge some folk with your red '94.

P.S. I have just a slight lead at 59 vs 56 with 31 hrs left. It must be a brand loyalty thing as clearly my car would whoop his in the 1/4 (once I put my engine back in. :( )

[DamonSlowpokeBaumann]

It very much is brand loyalty..The F bodies keep pickin on me hahaha!

[SCreamin]

I think we all know what the "F" in F body stands for... :eek: :D

[pablon2]

[ThunderDave]

Paul, Lucy got my vote. :cool:

[Andy 94SC]

I'm there. Which brand should I be loyal to?



I'll tell you one thing I HATE W cars.

[DamonSlowpokeBaumann]

Andy..SC owners from what I see arnt like Mustang or F body owners which are generally brand loyal...So its really what you like...Or who you like :O)

[supercatxr7]

Just signed up.

[Andy 94SC]

I just got a friend request, and a compliment on my "LS2" :rolleyes: from some 3rd gen Camaro owner... I'm not sure what to do with that.

[DamonSlowpokeBaumann]

They are going to brainwash you..Make you join the dark side on thier quest to destroy all Ford vehicles!

I ended up beating a special edition transam..lost to a moderator from z28.net...and am still battling a 3rd gen iroc Z and its close!

I'm getting a kick out of this..Really

[Andy 94SC]

If that's what they think they are going to do, they haven't looked too deeply into my garage.

[pablon2]

I won...98 to 87..thanks all. You know who you are. :D

[Andy 94SC]

A super coupe beat a GTP?!?!? Cant be. ;)

I've been doing some work in my garage. It's getting too cold to work in the real garage.

Need some engine pics of the goat. Also, I assume the drag vid has no sound?

I don't know if I have any engine pics other than just the one with the hood up. You've seen one LS1 you've seen 'em all right?

Nope no sound. It was taken on one of the first digital cameras that had video, so the video capability is pretty limited. Grainy, choppy etc.

[pablon2]

That's fine, if you don't think your car is special. :D

[DamonSlowpokeBaumann]

My first win was a GTP hehe Same oneyou beat!

[SCreamin]

it's a good thing nobody has challenged me... I'd lose.... :eek:

[007_SuperCoupe]

See we need to make a unified effort on the challenges. The problem is how the brand X loyalty that people vote. And even now with 40 or so SCs, Xr7s and regular T-birds on there, we still don't quite have enough to battle the brand Xers...although we're gettng closer...

I think if we have another 20 or so SCers on there we could start to hold our own versus the various brand Xers. I haven't seen more than about 50 votes on average...there was one or two that had 180 or so votes, but most of the time, they are under 50. And there's a lot of multiple Thunderbird owners on there right now...

[DamonSlowpokeBaumann]

I had somehow gotten well over 100 points on my stang vs the camaro....But still lost..Each vote is 5 points

UPDATE z28.net!!!! 1/10/07 I just had too

Don't forget to attach your car to the page as well. You attach it by clicking on the tab labelled "cars" that is just to the right of the tab labelled "members." From there it's pretty self explanitory.

And the web address for the enthusiast group is this:
