Hey Steve;

Does this interest you at all??



----

Mark, are you going to share any pics for those of us who either cannot, or simply do not plan on making it tomorrow night??

----


Ok, I need to ask you guys something;

when pushing these cars in the turns, do they seem to have rear end hop?

I took the merge from westbound canyon meadows onto southbound macleod trail this evening;
The right lane was empty even approaching the turn...
The right lane was empty for the whole merge deal-eo...
I could have sworn that when I pushed it my back end hopped twice...

The first time, I momentarily let off, then got back into it thinking I was mistaken, and sure enough, it happened again...

??

this past week.

I'm sure you can guess the source.

Figured I'd see if you were at all seriously contemplating the swap...
(I can lend it if you want to decide which route you'ld go.)

I am sure I was MUCH above the limit... but then again, when I push a car I'm a little more concerned about being aware with the road, and who or what is around rather than looking at gauges...

The first time it kinda spooked me, then the second time I was like "WTF, I didn't imagine that!?"...

no big deal.

you just didn't sound 100% for the swap... I figured if I lent it to you you could better decide if you wanted to or not...

Hey All,

Im hoping that I can get the assistance of a mechanic to help me diagnose a noise that has developed on my 06 ss/sc. Happens only under load (or thats the only time i can hear it) and from what i can tell (NOT a mechanic at all) it seems to be exhaust related.

Anyone in the South/Bridlewood area want to help a brother out?

(disclosure: posted in another forum for more answers, as this is regional, but so am i so....)

I know places to get methanol for cheap. . . . . . . but it's just slightly illegal! I can bring some back from when I go home if people want some. for a small price though!
