Yes, welcome aboard, ICURUNNIN.  I've lived in Houston, Wichita Falls and Dallas.  I've been told that I'm a nice guy, but I'd never be a Texan.  So I moved to Illinois...

Though owning a Capri gets lonely in Springfield, Illinois, I find I am only a stone's throw (Indiana) from the site of the largest Capri Gathering in Christendom (or at least the USA).  We had 35 cars last year and close to that this year.

I've owned a few cars myself.  I don't actually have committment issues, but I bought my first back in '76 (a '66 Triumph TR4A-IRS).  Currently I have a '93 Straosphere Blue NA with K&N, 2.25" exhaust, steel 4-2-1 header, high flow cat, Flowmaster Delta muffler and Pacesetter Monza exhaust tips.  Also has Firestone Firehawk Indys (205/55 R15) on American Racing "Estrella" wheels and some other stuff.

Next step is to open the front with CAI, but I work too much, work on my house too much and play music.  I'll get to it eventually.  The next Capri will be turbo, but this one only has 67,000, so I think I'll end up keeping both.  Did I mention the LeBaron is for sale?

Hey Mark-
Are you going to make it Rocket's little shindig?  I't be great to have you in the caravan! You'd just have to drive in front of me the whole way - I love the way those tips sound on your car!!

I'm going to try.  I need more info about the where and when.  If it's October 3, I think I'm good.

my last GVR4 only had 82k miles on it and I felt bad modding it. Sold it due to the fact I dropped waaaaay to much into it in a matter of 60 days or so.

It was reeeeal quick thouh. I just didnt want to have so much into a car I was going to abuse/drive.

Hope you find a XR2 soon. These things are fun to drive in turbo form. Cant speak for the n/a but can only guess the 32hp lost cant help.

This forum is WAY more active in the last year or so than it has been ever before, I used to come on and find only a few new posts a week, now there are better than 10 new posts a day! Thats comparatively very active!

Good to see everyone rallying together to support each other.

And mark yes Rocket's Shindig is October 3rd. I hope to have a final itinerary for everyone this week.
