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?

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?
