Kissrocker was talking about racing, and i think someone else was going too...
Gates open at 6:00pm and the racing is supposed to begin at 7:00pm.

The plan right now is to meet at Race City, watch some racing, and maybe go to BP's afterwards.

Ohh okay, I'll probably get made fun off by posting this. But believe it or not, I never been to racecity before. I don't even know where it is?

it's pretty easy to find - but you can meet up with me before (say around 6-6:30ish) and follow me out if you want.

just tried to call you... no answer

I was wondering if you were going to be in the south end of town tomorrow afternoon and could do me a small favor...

.........

So where is everyone meeting @5 - and why 5pm?

if gates only open @6pm for tech to start, why the rush? - I figured that if people who were not going to race met, or showed up around the time when racing started that would be all good...

I personally can rarely even get home by 5pm ~ and considering how close I am to RC (ok, Kissrocker has about a whole kilometer less than me to drive :LOL: ) - that somewhere in Riverbend might not be a bad place to meet.

I thought you were going to race? ~ wouldn't you want to try to be there as early as possible?

sorry... just my two cents...

oh btw, I am thinking of having some fun tonight too (I'll figure out tonight if I am for sure or not);
Can we compile a list of people who are coming to watch versus race?

Simply remove your intake and the throttle body is attached with 4-10mm bolts and 1-Vacuum line and 1-Electrical connector. Once removed I noticed that I had a bit of gunk in the body(not a significant amount and keep in mind my car have only 5k miles on it) but I figured I would give it a good cleaning with a $5 spray can of throttle body cleaner and then clean right around the valve(keep in mind when you open the valve be very gentle when cleaning to avoid any unwanted strain or possible damage). Once this minor operation was finished I reinstalled everything back to normal and fired it up and HOT DAMN!!!! Back to normal baby! Everything is running 100%. No more funky butterfly idle problems and my gas mileage is back to normal.

should get you going till the new DP shows up...

and btw, you really should take a peak @ Kris's shorty header - I thought it was a great looking piece ~ and something like that would not have any of the headache involved taht a full length header would have.
