    Post up pics of your "other" toys!!

    Searched but couldn't find a thread about non Tige related toys (other than the truck thread). Here's my "other" expensive hobby......

    2003 Mustang SVT Cobra. Hardly ever even drive the darn thing, but constantly spend money on it. Close to 600hp as it sits now, will be closer to 700hp by spring.....

    I post some pics of my 80 gal saltwater tank tonight.

    talk about a money pit but I love it...

    Just had a $25 fish die last night. I also had $120 worth fish die in one day it was only 2 fish.

                  Moki took this one of me on top of a cliff doing my cold weather hobby.

                  Ok, Ok, the side we climbed up was not a cliff, but kind of a steep hill.



                  The barkbusters (hand protectors) are really not to protect my hands, but I got tired of replacing brake and clutch levers every time I dropped the bike. They have served their purpose well.

                    If you don't like the bark busters ( I hate 'em--always in the way) try the ARC or ASV folding levers. They work AWESOME. I'm the crasher in the group, hence the nickname "Boom Boom," and I've yet to break a folding lever. I prefer the feel of the ASV, but both work really,really well. A set is around $120.

                      A friend of mine has the ASV levers and they work great and look cool too. These don't seem to bother me, so I'll keep them for now.

                      Somehow, on one of his last trips out, he managed to break an ASV lever. I am not sure exactly how that could happen, but leave it to someone who hangs out with me...

                          Nice car you have there and not a bad time at all for that elevation. What did you trap??

                          Yeah, the S197 stangs are HUGE when compared to vettes or older gen stangs.

                              I think my trap was 107 mph (it's an automatic) on a 1.85 60' with the factory 3.07 gears. I still haven't had it tuned properly, I'm sure a good tuner could get another 20 or 30 HP out of it.
