The Correct Way to Spank a Pony

The Correct Way to Spank a PonyIn our quest to enhance the StreetFire experience, our marketing team thought it would be appropriate to demonstrate what make StreetFire unique from the other video sharing sites. It's from the same guys that brought you StreetFire.net is the Good Kind of Goat With Balls so it has to be funny! This is what kind of ideas we come up with in our Friday afternoon meetings when we use beer for inspiration!

Mustang Cruise, you're invited!

Love Mustangs? Can you get your ride down there by February 11? Ninoavila just uploaded an invitation to come join their cruise to Padre Island, Texas. That's a bit far for me to get to, but I would love it if the StreetFire loyal would join up with some video cameras and upload what I missed!

Rockers in Action

Don't know why but watching rockers in action is hypnotizing to me..... sort of my Zen place. Anyhow, cool idea I hadn't thought of, if something odd is going on with your car, why not shoot a video of it and post it up?

Corsica WRC Rally 1997: Ford vs. Subaru

Yet, another small taste of what we're missing out of here in the states since no cable provider will pick it up. "Only Rally Videos" has another great one they just put up from the WRC race in Corsica from almost ten years ago. Great stuff, love how the growds just press up within inches of the cars..... somehow this is like the exact opposite of Formula 1 racing to me. Formula 1 is all about Safety, safety and *yawn* more safety. Guess what? If I want "safe" I'll white knuckle the National Spelling Bee. No, I like watching car racing because it *IS* dangerous. It's the control of danger that makes it so exciting....Sorry about that, rant off. here's a cool Rally Vid.

First GT500 into the 9's

Looks like Evolution Performance has gone and done it again. As a Quick recap. We've covered their ongoing efforts quite a bit. Honors to date include......and now, the First GT500 into the 9's. Next week, I challenge Fred to have the first GT500 to win a figuring skating medal because I can't think of much else left to be first on. ;-)

GT500 Video review by Carpix.net


Last month we featured a Ford GT getting thrashed by the good folks at Carpix.net. Well, they've been busy and have just released two more videos. The first is a very nostalgia rich highway run down Route 66 in the GT500... (Which I've been featuring way too much lately.).. The second? Well that one is extra special and one of my personal favorites so I'll feature that one in a second... so for now, please enjoy this great run down Route 66!

First Mustang Shelby GT500 into the 10's

Evolution Performance beat everyone to the punch by submtting the first video of a brand new GT500 on a dyno. Now they've done it again with video proof of the first Shelby GT500 into the 10's! Backing up this run is a video of a 578RWHP dyno run and pictures of the timeslip. So what does it take to get a GT500 to dip into the 10's?
  • Metco 2.6" Pulley
  • Evolution Performance Custom Tune
  • JLT Carbon Fiber Cold Air Intake
  • Stiegemeier Stage 1 Blower Port
  • Custom Off-Road X-Pipe
  • Borla Cat Back Exhaust System
  • FRPP 4.10 Gears
  • BMR Suspension
  • S&W Roll Bar
  • Aerospace Brakes
  • 4" Aluminum Driveshaft
  • Bogart Racing 17"GT Series Wheels
  • M&H Tires - 325/45R17 Drag Radials
Oh, and this Shelby achieved that run with less than 100 miles on the odometer, and only 4 weeks off the showroom floor. So expect a whole lot more to come!

Congratulations to the whole Evolution Performance team, thanks for the submission!

900 hp Twin Turbo Ford GT

This is just a work of art, and with 900hp dyno pulls...man the Louvre has nothing on this. Take a look at the turbo work on this thing. Those pipes are massive. Anyhow the folks at Fast Parts Network just uploaded this video giving us a cockpit-view of a full throttle 10-140mph acceleration run in this beast. It just doesn't let up at all. Most impressive.

Tuned up Mustang Shelby GT500 does 483 RWHP

Okay Okay I admit it, this is the second Shelby GT500 dyno I've posted in a week. What can I say I'm a sucker for any stock car that puts over 400 HP to the rollers in stock form.. This one does 435 RWHP stock and 483 RWHP with a mild tune! That's about 568 HP at the crank with 15% drivetrain loss!

BTW guys, PLEASE get a better microphone, this recording is all peaked out.... Also I would love to see the actual dyno graph.

Carpix.net Thrashes a Ford GT...

...Then consoles car with a hot chick car wash.

Folks, this is why we started StreetFire right here. We got sick of car TV shows that were more "infomercial" than real enthusiast meat and potatoes.

Simple formula here, take a damn hot car, annihilate $4,000 in tires, clean it up with hot girls. Can't wait to see more from the Carpix.net team!
