Orf Posted October 6, 2006 Report Share Posted October 6, 2006 It appears that a few of us might be getting together on the Outer Banks of North Carolina on Saturday, October 21st. Just trying to see if there are any others who might be able to make it. This could be a good opportunity for pictures and video, as well as getting a chance to meet each other. Chime in if you're interested. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RUFDRAFT Posted October 6, 2006 Report Share Posted October 6, 2006 The Rufstang will be coming. :happy feet: I could use some fresh seafood and some dark rum. (after we do the burnout competition, of course) I may even "drop-ship" the car...I need to call Andrews AFB.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RUFDRAFT Posted October 7, 2006 Report Share Posted October 7, 2006 You better turn up the boost in your 150, Beach Boy. And bring some glass cleaner - you'll need it to remove the rubber off your windshield. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

68fastback Posted October 9, 2006 Report Share Posted October 9, 2006 It's not a Lightning, I was hoping we were running on the beach!!!!!!!! Getting a weird mental image of you guys literally running on the beach -- in slowmo . Only way he's beating me is if we run on the beach! :happy feet: ...wait...I think it's the FedEx guy at the front door....it is...he's got 3 big boxes from...Livonia MI...Now I wonder what they might be.... ...got to remember to fill the tank with 93 octane.....he he. Livonie! that can only mean one thing ;-) Bryan, they tell you to run it the tank low then fill with 93 octane and then run that through and refill again with 93 before putting the Roushcharger on. Even 5-10% 87 octane in the mix can do damage. I read on a website that they've added a full page posting in the Roush owners manual because if there's engine damamge and any detectable 87 octane in the fuel system, they won't honor the warranty. Just wanted to mention it to you -- apparently it's genuinely important to do the double tank of 93, pain in the a$$ that it is. -Dan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RUFDRAFT Posted October 21, 2006 Report Share Posted October 21, 2006 Just got back to the crib from the Outer Banks Mustang Summit. A very - very cool day. Orf, me, scgt500, and mastersmech gatherup at the Orf Compound and then did a bit of terrorizing the local beach-type folks on Rt. 12. Pics and video links to follow soon. Thanks, Orf - you're a great host (he even let me & scgt drive his Shelby!). Heading out to CVS to get some of the pics developed. My first impression of driving a Shelby? ....where is that phone number for Roush Racing....???! And - Orf - thank your mom again for posting our bail.

Orf Posted October 21, 2006 Author Report Share Posted October 21, 2006 A very - very cool day. You southern boys don't know about cool days. 68 degrees is plenty warm for me. It was a great day. Nice to meet some of the guys from here. I didn't hear any negatives about my Corsas, so either everyone was being polite, or they actually do sound OK in person. Pictures don't do the Rufstang justice. It is a sweet looking ride. Very impressive. Not to mention, if you run out of room in the trunk, there is still room under the hood. Sorry, Ruf, couldn't resist. Mastersmech1 and scgt500 are good people, and their wives seemed to enjoy the get together as much as they did. Out of 26 pictures, I picked a few of my favorites. I really like the reflection picture, but I have to give credit to Ruf, as it was his idea. I also like the shot from the ground a lot. I have a few minutes of video. I'll try to get them up on You Tube when I get back home. I may try to get a copy of the entire video to Robert, to see if he can post it on the site.

RUFDRAFT Posted October 22, 2006 Report Share Posted October 22, 2006 Sure! One of his favorites is everyone standing in front of my car! Here's the original comment about my engine compartment: I pop my hood. The boys gather 'round to look. Orf says, "Gee, there's a lot of extra room in This engine compartment." Very funny! Orf also bragged about finding a 4" antenna right after I told him I had just ordered a 14" - the shortest I could find! SCGT rode with Orf toward the Sonic burger joint. The thing is - before Bill could fasten his seatbelt, Commander Orf decided to engage full boost!! Poor Bill just hung on as the 3 of us ripped off some gears! And I'm telling Bill's wife (riding with me - and a good call based on Orf's driving habits), "Look at these guys - they're out of control!" So - no collateral damage. The old couple in the minivan decided not to press charges - and the little dog will only lose one leg. Now - about that guy in the C6 Vette....more on that later.

Orf Posted October 22, 2006 Author Report Share Posted October 22, 2006 Antenna envy and not being able to keep up pace. Like Mick Jagger said oh so many years ago, "What a drag it is getting old". :bandance: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mastersmech1 Posted October 22, 2006 Report Share Posted October 22, 2006 Thank god I kept Ruf from jumping. What would we do without our patriarch? Orf, the Corsas sound great. You could not only see and hear you, but the feel was great too. The Rufstang is truly a sweet and unique ride. It's a great car with a "Ruf" personality (I love the sunglasses). Great to meet all of you Bryan, Greg and mom, Bill and wife. We had a great time. I saw on the national news that the Dare Co police are looking for three rocketships flying through Southern Shores neiborhoods near light speed. I know nothing Can't wait till next time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't know they offered the GT500 with a yellow side stripe option. Dave Waiting 2 years and posting almost 1000 posts on this site and I still haven't driven a GT500, 'til TODAY. Man alive what a car, the thing is awesome, and all my thanks goes out to ORF. Thank you so much for such a great day with great people ORF, RUF and MASTERMECH & wife. Now I really am itching to get my car! And the Corsa's on ORF's car are simply awesome! RUF's stang is really cool with the lowered ride height and great rims, very nice in person. I also snuck a picture of RUF trying to get the ultimate picture while almost killing himself! What the heck? Were you guys trying to put him on a pedestal? RUF, did you tell them that the extra room in the engine bay will fill up with N2O equipment? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mastersmech1 Posted October 22, 2006 Report Share Posted October 22, 2006 Looks like MASTERMECH was throwing him into the bushes!!! I was trying to keep him from jumping. Thats my story and i'm sticking to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
