Hello everyone. I registered awhile ago and have read the boards for years but have now finally decided to post. I have a 1993 x-CHP coupe that I have owned for 10 years, plus friends and family have owned 4 1992 x-CHP coupes and I have possesion of a friends 88 x-CHP coupe. I was a prospect for the CHP back in '96 but due to family issues was unable to go to the academy and gave up my pursuit to be a CHP officer. Have since become a Ford parts counterman and a Mustang/Ford drag racing promoter for the West Coast. From '01 through '07 held my Mustang Drag Days at Los Angeles County Raceway in Palmdale and am now associated with the PSCA (Pacific Street Car Association) in which I have a class called Mustang Maddness sponsored by Ford Racing. Look for my coupe in an upcoming issue of 5.0 Mustang magazine in a tech article on MSD's new 6AL-2 ignition box. I'll also be attending Pinks All Out in Bakersfield in Sept '09 in which by then the notch will be wearing the trunk "HIGHWAY PATROL" decal to highlight it's past.

Welcome new guys. Be sure to come out to Knotts in a few months and see the restored SSPs.

[Sal]

I have seen your car at Knotts. I should have mine there this year as I am setting up a display with Ford Racing for our PSCA Ford Racing Mustang Maddness class. We'll have about 6 Ford Racing M/M race cars alongside the Ford Racing trailer. Question is, how to acquire the trunk "Highway Patrol" decal before the show?

A little video of my SSP at LACR the week before the track permanently shut its doors. It's still running the 130,000 mile stock short block, all motor!

Nice launch on the PRO tree, but what did you run? Inquiring minds (well, me at least) want to know...

[Sal]

12.2 at 112, LACR's elevation was at 2700 feet but the DA was always about 5000 feet. Car's gone 11.90 at Fontana and 11.60 at the also gone Carlsbad Raceway. Combo is a naturally aspirated EFI engine with ported Cobra intake, 65MM throttle body, Trick Flow Twisted Wedge heads, custom Comp Cam camshaft, and full Bassani race exhaust all on 91 pump gas. Simple but effective.
