Remembering George Poteet
George Poteet, a true icon in the world of hot rodding and land speed racing, has left us, but his legacy blazes on like a nitro-fueled firestorm. Poteet wasn’t just another car guy; he was “The Car Guy,” a legend who lived life a quarter-mile at a time and made history on the salt flats. Let’s dive into the life of a man who put the pedal to the metal and never looked back.

SHOP PROJECT
When you attend a Mustang & Shelby event, especially one the magnitude of the Rocky Mountain Mustang Roundup in Steamboat Springs, Colorado, it can become kind of a mind-boggling process to pick a “favorite” Mustang among the more than 750 entries. Nonetheless, it’s an assignment we relish. And at the 2006 RMMR, there were plenty of outstanding Mustangs and Shelbys to choose from.

Picture this: you’re cruising down a muddy backroad, ready to switch into 4WD, and nothing happens. You check your ESOF switch, slam it again… still nothing. The culprit? Not your transfer case, not your drive shafts—it’s the OEM vacuum hoses and steel fittings at your hubs, silently failing after years of exposure to heat, moisture, and road grime. Dry-rot, leaks, and rusted fittings strike when you least expect it, leaving you stuck and frustrated.
Enter the DIESELSITE 4WD ESOF Stainless Lines Kit—engineered to prevent this nightmare. Designed for 1999–2010 Ford Superduty models, this kit replaces those old, failing rubber hoses and rusty steel fittings with Teflon-lined, stainless steel braided lines that outperform OEM parts in every way. Whether you’re battling mud, snow, or the daily grind, these lines keep your 4WD system reliable and responsive every time you flip that switch.
