Foxes are good drag cars, have had two in the day, an 85 GT and an 89 LX Coupe. I have a buddy here with a 93 GT mostly fiberglass running a 4.94 in the 1/8, that just blew up last week, aux fuel pump went out spraying a 300 shot and cooked it.....$30K down the drain, but it'll up and going again this weekend hopefully or the next. Another guy here has a 07 shelby turning 9.50s in the 1/4 and is street legal, running a KB and some other toys.

We mostly run up in dinwiddie va at VMP, we rent the track for the day and have a ball.

I have to be honest, I would rather have my X5 pulled by a wrecker everywhere I go than drive a Trailblazer. How can you stand to look at that interior? The exterior isn't much to look at either. By the way, the Trailblazer was rated as Average for overall crash worthiness while the e53 X5 was scored as good.

Yes, the TB is a faster accelerating vehicle, but does it brake and corner better than the X5? Does it have that "car-like" feel in the twisties? Is it as safe? I doubt it. It also gets worse gas mileage! I just dont get how the two can be compared at all.

I am not new to forums just new to the line of thinking that was expressed in a certain comment which I am going to address . But while I am on my soap box , I want to thank each and everyone of u guys that have done the fyi's and how to's ....you have saved my butt on numerous occasions.
Now to the meat .....I think this really represents whats wrong with our country and no im not going to play the polictical card but I could..... read on and see if u can connect the dots (so to speak.)
The qoute " W89coupe, I'm frankly embarrassed by the behavior of some on this forum. I realized many were just joking around (and there were some funnies!) but some of the comments were really out of context, overblown and meant to dig you and that just isn't right.

HMMMMMM ok
1. If you dont like your bimmer in the u.s U have the right to sell it !

2. Freedom of speech allows u to say ur Bimmer is sh%^ Freedom of speech also allows me to flame the he%% out of you if u choose to imply mine is also. (especially just because you are selling yours ...sour grapes)
3. And for the guy who is so apoligetic for some of our behavior "I stand by my earlier comment (which was tongue and cheek not what I really wanted to say) and I still think it is BAD FORM to say ,in exit, the stuff that was said. I really dont care if u dont approve of my behavior but I suspect ur the guy that is compensating for something with YOOOUUUURRR bimmer. Ive got my 2 because I wanted to drive a nice vechicle and i wanted my wife to also . You are probally the guy who trys to defend the guy who just raped a child by trying to convience us "it wasnt his fault" it was "how he was raised" . Im gonna suggest you try decaff ! Seek a physcologist for your compensation issues and go march in the sensitive american parade this weekend.

In closing I would like to say I can take as well as I give... so dont hold back...... please forgive the grammer mistakes and spelling as I was pushed for time ... just flame me for the thought process or message if
you must.
And I am proud to be in such a great forum as this U guys are the best !

There I said it !
