was so pleased to see and hear this year’s “National

Mustang Day” (NMD) getting the recognition it

deserves by the media, honoring the iconic Muscle

Car's 54th

birthday. That day was celebrated by clubs and

enthusiasts worldwide. Channel 7 (ABC/NOW-WXYZ),

Fox & Friends, Internet, Sirus radio announcer “Flash”

with 60's on 6, newspapers, and Ford all mentioned the

Mustang Birthday and offered some trivia / history too. So,

I thank you club members for the great turnout, despite the

balmy 30 degree temp. and snow flurries. We had approx.

100+ members and 50+ Mustangs to celebrate National

Mustang Day. You even had the pleasure of seeing my

GT500 (George Tomas) which I had had to dust off.

I felt a lot of pride in our VFW meeting hall. In

addition to, the complementary pizza (we ate 28 pizza pies

and we will need more next year), soft drinks, National

Mustang Day Birthday Cake, and cookies, all members

received a: commemorative NMD window decal, 25th

anniversary glass and coaster set with NMD logo.

The merchandise table also launched for purchase

(at a slightly reduced cost) the new 25th anniversary club

logo short and long sleeve T shirts, crew and hoodie

sweatshirts, and a tool / product pouch organizer. It was a

pleasure meeting new members and hearing about their

pride and joys. Colleen Addeo was our big NMD banner

winner. Everyone that attended helped out with setting up

and cleaning up. Joanne and I brought a Jeep full of your

generously donated

nonperishable non expired food

items to the “The Interfaith Food

Pantry”, in Morris Plains. Our

club donated 472 pounds of food.

Please see pictures in this

newsletter.

Sunday, April 22,

our “Spring Round Up Open Car

Show” at the Nielsen

Dodge/Jeep/Ram Dealer-

ship, 175 Route 10, East

Hanover, from 9:00 am -2:00pm. Tom Addeo and I had not

one phone conversation concerning rain or snow, but we

learned about food vendors (permits) and food serving in

East Hanover. One of our own GSRMC Members, Bill

McCombs came to our rescue and provided our show with

a food vendor (thank you Bill M ) .

The car show committees did an awesome job. All

in all, a great day, a successful club event. From

Registration, Parking, Vote Tabulation, Merchandising

Table, 50/50, and our NEW car show software. Again,

thank you all for making this car show very successful.

Over 225+ vehicles, 50+ club members, spectators too, Not

bad for our 1st event at the Nielsen Dodge/Jeep/Ram

location. So many volunteers too. The Club will donate

some of the proceeds collected to the car show charity,

MDA. Again, our success is due to your participation and

generosity that we so greatly appreciate. Also, please check

out our website at www.gsrmc.org for the car show

pictures.

On Wednesday, May 16,

2018, The GSRMC will be having

the “Pot Luck Supper Meeting”.

Please bring your favorite dish to

our meeting. We will also have a

guest speaker at our meeting, Mr

Tony Monopoli from AVM

Appraisals. He will go over

“Estate Planning” for you and

your family members.

See you on, Wednesday,

May 16.

LET’S EAT

The May 16th meeting will be

our Spring Potluck Supper and it will be our first Meeting

Cruise Night of the season. Everybody knows that we as a

club like to eat, so the Spring Pot Luck Supper is one of our

most popular meetings. Members are asked to bring a salad,

appetizer, side dish or entree, while the club will supply the

soft drinks and desserts. Now that the weather is getting nicer

and the days are getting longer, it is also time for our Meeting

Cruise Nights. We encourage all members attending the May

meeting to bring their ponies with them. Come out early to

check out the cars. Cruising starts at 7:00 and the food will be

served at 7:45.

3RD ANNUAL. GSRMC

MINI-GOLF TOURNEY

This year’s event will take place on Saturday, June 30th

. The

club will once again meet at the Golf Zone, at 239 Route 206,

in Flanders, by 2:00 P.M. for 18 holes of mini-golf. After a

couple of hours of showing off our putting prowess, we will

head over for dinner at a yet to be determined local eatery.

We have reserved the course from 2:00 – 4:00 PM so

if attending, please be prompt. We will collect fees the day of

the event. If we arrive as a group by 2:00 PM, then we can get

the group rates of $5 or $6, depending upon how many of us

are golfing. The Golf Zone also has a 36 hole mini course for

the brave, and talented. Look for more details at the meeting

and in the next newsletter.

WE LOVE A

PARADE(S)

Parades are a fun way to show off

your car and we hope many of you will participate in one or

all of the them that we have coming up. Although it doesn't

matter what year or body style Mustang you have, we’d really

like to see a diverse group, including a good turnout of first

generation cars.

Memorial Day: First up is the Dover Memorial Day Parade

on May 28th. Details will be available at the May meeting or

contact Dale F. at 201.306.8127 or [email protected]. Also

on May 28th

, is the Fairlawn Memorial Day Parade. We will

be meeting at the Panera Bread in the Kohl’s shopping center

(165 Rt. 4 W, Paramus). We will need to leave there at 8:30

am for the brief ride to the

parade staging area. Contact

Joe D, [email protected],

for more info.

Independence Day: We have been invited back to

the Independence Day parades in Maywood and

Ridgefield Park. Although they are both on July

4th, there is enough time between parades so

those who wish can participate in both. We will be

getting paid by both towns for participating, so

we’d like to have a good turnout at both. We need

to line up for the Maywood parade at 8:30am in the parking

lot of Myron Manufacturing on Maywood Ave. After a brief

pit stop, we will cruise over to Ridgefield Park for their

parade’s starting time of 11:20am. They are looking for 2-3

convertibles to carry honor students, if interested, please see

Mike D or contact him at [email protected]

Keep in mind that these towns start closing down

streets early near the parade route.

FREE ICE CREAM

Who doesn’t like that? We will be holding our annual Ice

Cream Social at the June 20th

meeting. Everybody loves ice

cream so this is always a crowded meeting. There will be

different flavors of ice cream along with all the fixings to

make your own personalized treat. So bring the whole family

for a really cool time. We will also be having another Meeting

Cruise Night. We encourage all members attending the June

meeting to bring their ponies with them. Come out early to see

what everybody’s driving, just don’t drip ice cream on the

cars. Cruising starts at 7:00pm and the ice cream will be

served around 7:45pm.

SHOW REGISTRATION

One of the perks of being a GSRMC

any or all of our 2018 shows for only

vehicles preregistered by the deadline. This special rate is not

also hope that all members attending shows will help out

while they are there.

Our thanks to Ken Najarian for getting the badges.

CLUB CRUISE NIGHTS ARE BACK

That’s right, starting in June we will get back to the GSRMC

tradition of Club Cruise Nights (CCN). Basically what we do

is select an existing Cruise Night, pick a night and members

either meet up and drive in together or just meet & park

together at the cruise night. All of the CCNs will be open to

all years of Mustangs.

2018 GSRMC CCN Schedule:

June 23 – Whiskey Café, Lyndhurst

NATIONAL MUSTANG DAY &

GSRMC 25TH

ANNIVERSARY

CLEBRATION

his is the third year that the club has been celebrating

National Mustang Day on the Mustang’s birthday,

April 17th

. The first two years, the weather was about

as good as you could want for mid-April or any time of year

for that matter. Sunny and 70’s plus tempertures. So when the

forecast called for below average tempertures and cloudy

skies, it didn’t look good for our scheduled party. Then when

some areas saw snow flurries during the day, we had second

thoughts about not using our rain date of the following night.

Mustangers are a hearty bunch however, and over 45

ponies of all years, colors & body styles filled the lot of the

Whippany VFW hall. Then when the free pizza came, the hall

became filled with over 100 members, former members &

guests. After the feeding frenzy had ended, GSRMC glasses

& National Mustang Day coasters & decals were given away

to those in attendance. We also debuted our new 25th

anniversary apparel which caused quite a stir.

When we finally got to the meeting, the following

members were recognized for being at the very first GSRMC

meeting back in 1993; Rich Calabro, Jim Cogan, Mike &

Louise DeLiberto, Ken & Maryann Olsen and Brenda

Zimmerman. At the end of the evening, over 200 lbs of food

that was donated was packed into the Chernack’s car for

delivery to the Interfaith Food Pantry in Morris Plains.

All in all, a great night was had by everyone present.

AUDIO ENGINEERS TAP INTO OUR

ANCESTRAL DNA TO ENHANCE OUR

EMOTIONAL CONNECTIONS TO

PRODUCTS

The next time you jump at the sound of thunder or feel an

adrenaline rush when you hear the new active valve

performance exhaust on the 2019 EcoBoost®-equipped

Mustang, thank your prehistoric ancestors.

It’s called an autonomic response, and it traces back

to ancient humans who successfully learned to react quickly to

loud and powerful sounds, like the roar of a lion or the crash

of a tree. Over time, this fight-or-flight response to avoid

danger was passed along in our DNA and hardwired into our

minds and bodies.

Today, modern sound engineers tap into those very

same concepts when they create sounds for everything from

movies and music, to cars and cellphones – and even

appliances.

So that familiar “ta-da” chime your smartphone emits

isn’t by friendly accident; it’s carefully designed to be pleasant

and happy, according to Marpurg’s theory.

In Dearborn, Michigan, audio designers of another

sort create sounds that tap into our desire for power and thrills.

They are engineers at Ford Motor Company, designing

acoustic exhaust sounds that excite the senses and deliver a

note of performance.

These automotive sound engineers rely on

computational analysis to design, for example, a computer-

controlled active exhaust system that opens valves – much like

a saxophone or a large pipe organ – to change the sound of the

car based on the mood of the driver.

Ayesh breaks it down using a simple analogy – a

guitar. “Strum a chord on an acoustic guitar, and you get a

clean, simple sound wave – that’s your quiet Brahms’ Lullaby

kind of mood,” he said. “Plug that guitar into an amp and

crank it up to 11, and that’s your aggressive, crackling sound

that really rocks your soul. We call that track mode.”

Performance comes in all sizes. When you step on

the gas of Ayesh’s test car – a 310-horsepower EcoBoost

Mustang – the throaty rumble of the exhaust makes the hair on

the back of your neck stand up, just as it might on the larger-

engine Mustang GT and Shelby GT350 models.

Click a switch on the center console, and the sound

instantly changes to match your mood – normal, louder and

more aggressive sport and track settings, as well as a quiet

mode, when all you want is to just keep the peace.

“When I pick up my kids from school, they want to

hear that growling rev of the engine,” said Ayesh, “but my

wife and neighbors, not so much. So I can select the quieter

‘good neighbor’ mode, and keep them happy, too.”

MUSTANG COBRA JET CELEBRATES

50TH ANNIVERSARY WITH QUICKEST

STRAIGHT-LINE STALLION YET

Fifty years ago, the Ford Mustang Cobra Jet took to the

staging lanes at drag strips everywhere – and along with the

resulting wins, a legend was born. Now comes the return of

the Mustang Cobra Jet drag strip race car by Ford

Performance – targeted to be the most powerful and quickest

version from the factory yet, capable of running the quarter-

mile in the mid-8-second range while topping 150 mph.

“From the very first Mustang Cobra Jets dominating

the 1968 NHRA Winternationals to our modern-day Cobra Jet

racers, the Ford Performance Parts team continues to build the

Cobra Jet brand based on its success at the track over five

decades,” said Eric Cin, global director, Ford Performance

Parts. “That, in turn, has inspired generations of Mustang fans

to create their own performance machines for the street.”

Engineered by Ford Performance Parts, the purpose-

built drag racer developed on the 2018 Ford Mustang platform

is limited to 68 non-VIN production cars. It includes a

supercharged 5.2-liter Coyote V8 and unique four-link rear

suspension, along with a Ford 9-inch solid rear axle from

Strange Engineering. Race add-ons include NHRA-certified

roll cage, Racetech FIA seats, and a drag race-specific coil-

over suspension with specially designed Weld Racing wheels

with 50th anniversary badging.

The result is a turnkey racer that showcases many

performance add-ons available from the Ford Performance

Parts catalog for Mustang dating back to the original 1968

Cobra Jet. Offered in either Race Red or Oxford White, the

2018 Mustang Cobra Jet features an available commemorative

50th anniversary graphics package and anniversary badging.
