    Hi Fellow Coupe Crazies....

    I registered here with my old forum name before one of the prior software changes. So I'm "Geezer" (my son and his friends had names for all their parents in middle school and that was mine), but it is still me (Ken Stroh). Warming up in the garage - time to get back at it.... Let the insanity continue unabated....

    Understeer is when you hit the wall with the front of the car and oversteer is when you hit the wall with the rear of the car.
    Horsepower is how fast you hit the wall and torque is how far you take the wall with you.

    Wink Hey Hank, suggested mod for the Coupe jacket

    Hank, I'm about to pull the trigger on one of my more over-the-top parts purchases. I think the Coupe jacket should have a wallet "lock box."

    Ken,

    We are modifying the jacket, it will have a new slit in it, so any of us can reach in, take your wallet out, and spend as we see fit at Breeze, Forte's, Five Star Ford, or any of our favorite Coupe vendors sites. Just about the opposite that you suggested, but it's been working for 8 years so far. Glen, AKA Weendoggie, just spent some of "My Money" on a new fuel injection system. NEVER go to dinner with him, it's expensive!

    Should we make a new jacket for the Gen 2 Coupe buyers? Maybe a jacket with one hand tied behind the back?
    If in doubt......flat out-Colin McRae
