BuzzHaze - 08 May 2007 00:34 GMT
Hi Everyone,

My name is Buzz Haze, I used to post here back in the day but my ISP
dropped usenet and that was the end of that...I have finally found a
way to post on the web so here I am.

oh joy...he's back [rolls eyes]  ha-ha!!

Actually, I had many friends here and I look forward to catching up.

So here's what I have been up to, Im still in Ottawa Canada signed in
Div 1 NHRA points for the last 4 years. Ive done very well managing to
stay in the top 5 each year. My mustang has gone through many changes
but a few things are still the same.

I've gone to an adjustable ladder-bar system along with more cage, I
got a scatter shield on the stock T5 cause she's gonna blow soon...ha-
ha!  Can you believe I still have the same motor...a bone stock 5
liter. I have sunk 15 grand into the rest of the car and not 1 red
cent under the hood. Why? you ask...simple. Im an idiot....ha-ha!!!
but I have a new sponsor who is dying to drop a S.B.Ford stroker motor
in it. He wants me in the low 10's on motor.

As I have been adding cage and shields, I would have to work really
hard to get more 12 sec passes but it has been running consistent
13.2's without hammering the shifts so Ive been doing that. Now that
the scatter shield is in, I can lay down another 12.9.  I did hook up
a 125 NOS shot (wet) and did a half pass. I engaged the NOS just
before the 1/8th and saw flames....shut it down and ran a 12.61 @ 114
mph
I think I can squeeze an 11.9 with the stock motor and NOS.
WOOOOO!!!!

So, here's the kicker. It's painted like a CHP car...yes. I'm insane
but let me tell you, It will look fantastic,
It will be out of paint and body this week so no pics yet....I will
post a link in a week or 2. It will say
"Dragway Patrol" instead of highway patrol, and will have "project and
swerve" on the rear quarter. lol

I am the photographer at 2 tracks here, one is NHRA (Luskville
Dragway) and the other is stock cars (Capital City Speedway) check
them out  www.buzzhaze.com

So what the heck has everyone else been up to?

Uh... Buzz?

We've changed things a bit here in ramfm.

I think you're looking for rec.autos.makers.ford.mustang.canada now. This is

Ahhh Dwight, good to see you've still got your sense of humor. How are
you? the Frog? kids?
After poking around a little, I am surprised to see names I recognize.
A guy named Steve is one
of the posters I was hoping to see around...you too of course..lol SVT
Kate, she's a blast!!! WindsorFox
is another....I missed you guys.

I should have mentioned Im in google groups, sorry about that but I
will probably just
subscribe to supernews or something since I like Agent and some of the
older usenet readers
over this google thing.

Jean and I moved a couple of years ago, a little further outside of
Philadelphia to a place I like to call Paradise. www.tfrog93.com tells the
story.

TFrog is still with me, now over 207,000 miles, and has a new stablemate
CFrog, a '93 GT convertible. Meanwhile, I'm busy stockpiling lenses for the
Digital Rebel XT, trying my hand at remaking my landscape, and basically
killing time until the Eagles start their 2007 campaign.

Princess still lives with us (25 now), and The Boy, my prodigal son, has
just moved back into the area after living a few years up around New Yawk.
Life is good.

Your timing is great, since Steve just popped in again not too long ago. And
I understand why you miss these folks, since they're the reason I've been
hanging around in this corner of usenet for lo these many years...

Google Groups can't be a lot of fun. If Supernews is a bit much for you, try
www.Teranews.com  - not the greatest, but for a one-time fee of $3.95,
you'll have access to just about any newsgroup you want.

Good to hear things are stable. I've been doing so much work on this
car, it's crazy.
Here are a few early paint-shop pics. The car is ready for the vinyl
work.

No KIDDING, that's a lot of work. From where it's been to where it is, it's
looking great.

Let me see if I have this right... You're going to fix this little Fox up to
first-class form, then take it to the track and beat the living crap out of
it?

You bet!! The car wouldn't be happy doing display duties. Now that I
have all
the sponsors in place, I can mess it up and they will fix it before
Sunday. Wooooo!!!

...a little "Pam" on the rear panel to repel the burn-out rubber and
she'll be fine,

lol...good to hear from you Windsor. I dont remember getting an email
but I was having major problems with my ISP's mail service. I was
getting
emails that were 2 weeks old or not getting rhem at all...and I pay
these people [rolls eyes]

I hope everyrhing is going well. I'm still watching hockey over here,
We have
our team in the Stanley Cup final but they are choking like a fat man
on a chicken bone.
Ah...who cares, race season is here. lol.  I have been shooting at the
local roundy round.
Talk about BORING....ha-ha. The accidents are cool but the other shots
all look the same
night after night.

I'll keep you guys posted on the police project. I ordered the decals
from Chicago, They
are as close to the real thing as you can get. (MSquad)  once I get
them on, I go for the
cars final E-Test (1987 and older are now exempt) then we put in the
stroker...ha-ha!!!
Im going carb. I just hope I can get it done before the season ends.
We only get 11 nice
days here in Canada.  :)

    We had the same trouble with Cox when they first started dicking
around with spam filters.

   Yeah, love the B&W paint job. I plan to keep up with it and would
love to add any vids you get to my Youtube site if you don't have one.
BTW, I seem to remember you're in Toronto? You can find me sniffing
around on ott.general just for the company that's there LOL.

   We also had a Toronto member of the ShamiksServer NASCAR racing
league come down and spend Thanksgiving week here in the bayou with us.
He told us all aboot winter time in Canada ROFL!!!

Hey Buzz,

It's been a little while since I last dropped by - basically once I
got the car running, which I know you've seen the youtube video of it
idling.  I can't believe it was 4 years ago that I was up in your neck
of the woods!

Not much new with my car since the last update.  I still have lots to
do and it only takes money.

When I was watching it, my original thought was that they were going
to spin around and show another car idling because it didn't look like
it was coming from the Tbird.

   Well I don't think it was coming from the car they DID swing around
to ROFL!!
