Due
to the fun times had by the 40+ cars that showed
up to last years LA cruise, I had been approached
by a few to set another cruise up, a catalyst for
an LA Cruise Part 2. The date will be 2/28, location
and time and route will be determined and made better
from issues we learned from last year and will be
posted in the days to come. We are definitely rolling
through Rodeo Drive as that was a big highlight
last year. I am starting a list for now and will
update periodically and update the time and meeting
place.
For
more information on the cruise please visit our
forum, it is listed under the Up Coming Events Section.

TRANSFORMS A STOCK MUSTANG INTO A MOVIE CAR
IN 6 HOURS AT THE SAN DIEGO AUTO SHOW
SANTEE,
CA (January 8, 2008) – It usually takes days, weeks,
and sometimes months to create a show vehicle, but
the San Diego-based Stangpede Mustang club has set
out to prove otherwise. In front of a live audience
at the 2008 San Diego International Auto Show, the
Stangpede team transformed a stock 2008 Ford Mustang
GT into full-blown show car in exactly six hours.
This
wasn’t the first time that Stangpede has built a Mustang
show car - they have previously built vehicles at
auto shows in Orange County and Las Vegas as well
as last year in San Diego. However, this build was
somewhat different because the newly-modified Mustang
will be featured in the upcoming Fast and Furious
4 movie. “We love having a live audience watch us
build Mustangs, but this car is extra special because
millions of people will see it,” said Ernie Sigala,
Club President of Stangpede. The completed Mustang
will appear in the movie with the Stangpede banner
and will also appear at shows across the country.
The
build-up was done using the very best aftermarket
products available for the Mustang. The Stangpede
team added an LNR body kit from Blow-By Racing, TruFiber
GTS hood, Saleen 550-hp supercharger system, suspension
and brakes, MAC full exhaust system, Classic Design
Concepts Glassback roof, and a vertical door kit from
Vertical Doors, Inc. Several sponsors took the extra
step and even helped out with the build. Chris Jones,
owner of Blow-By Racing helped install the supercharger,
and Mac Jones Jr. of MAC Performance took on the installation
of the exhaust system. DiabloSport co-owner George
Najarian was on hand to tune the car using a Predator
tuner, and Brad Diez from Speedzone Paint and Bodyworks
was present to make sure the Mustang’s Candy Apple
Red paint remained spotless. NOS Energy Drinks provided
plenty of beverages to keep the team energized during
the build. “We had tremendous support from our sponsors
and couldn’t have done it without them,” said Sigala.
