More info on Mustang Cars



Shelby American has unveiled their Super Snake package for the Ford
Mustang GT500 2013. The 2013 Shelby GT500 Super Snake made an
appearance at the Barrett-Jackson collector car auction in Las Vegas
in September.
The limited edition 2013 Shelby GT500 Super Snake features new styling
cues, color options and optional performance upgrades at a lower base
price. Only 500 total 2013 Super Snakes will be built;
The entry-level model has a supercharged 5.8-liter V8 engine that
develops 662 hp (494 kW / 671 PS) and 631 lb-ft (855 Nm) of torque.
Other option is that the engine can be equipped with a Whipple or
Kenne Bell supercharger that enables it to produce 850 hp (634 kW /
862 PS).


I know about this car because it is in the  Muscle  Car car Museum in Blenheim  There are

also three other mustangs there .They are two 1964 GT Mustangs and
a 2003 GT Mustang.  The first Mustang rolled off the assembly line in1964.
Since then they have remained very popular and many people around the world.
Random Fact: The first Mustang was sold to a 22 year old teacher, Gail Wise. According to the Yahoo.com news article, "she went to Johnson Ford in Chicago. After a tour of the showroom turned up nothing of interest, the salesman said “I’ve got something in the back that's really new" — a light blue Mustang convertible, fully loaded with a 260 V-8 and a power top." It was sold on April 15, 1964

QUAKED - SKATING IN CHRISTCHURCH AFTER EARTHQUAKE




Somehow this catches the eeriness of the streets of Christchurch, better than any news report. It reminds me of walking around the CBD and hearing, in the middle of a built up city, the kind of absolute silence you'd normally only hear in a forest or out in the wilderness. Amazing video.

Captain Fantastic is back, but can we beat the Boks?

Okay, This is the second Rugby post and I have put nothing up about Basketball or Soccer BUT,
the All Blacks vs the Boks is HUGE. Richies back, but the stats are not in in our favour. In 11 matches at Ellis Park, we have only won 3 times. Of course I don't know much about rugby!
