yea they're used but just from another cobalt who got rims there and didn't want the oe ones... omw there, my coolant temp sensor went out... stopped to see if losing coolant and feel the engine to see how hot it was... seemed fine... shut off to see if that would help... start up... didn't wanna start lol, kept turning over and trying but barely got it going... got temp sensor for 11 bucks after discount tire and fixed! engine temps are fine and on my test drive, saw a black cobalt with an exhaust on it here in eagan, anyone from here?

Hey what's up everyone? My name is Bob I'm up in Cambridge but I'm in the metro often for stuff. I cruise with a few guys down to ricekillers occasionally. Anyone going to boost for boobies at the end of April? I'm really hoping to be blown by then!

Oh snap!

Say, bankerbalt you have a build thread anywhere? You have a similar set up to what I'm going to do, it'd be cool to see a local guy with about the same stuff.

Haha fair enough man, thanks though.

On another note, does anyone know where most of the cruising goes on anymore? We used to rip around University in St. Paul the last couple summer before they had it all torn up but now I don't know where it all goes on anymore

ahh i see man, yeah Ricekillers is fun once in a while, I went when it was in Fridley and at MAP, but I get sick of looking at the same highschool kids and douches that drive rusty hondas and dirty trucks in there, and don't get me going on the ******* skittle guys. Lol, but i'll have to make my way down to Bloomington when it warms up for sure.

Scared of the po po?

Id rather not go to a ricekiller meet but that is just me, too many highschool kids. I know theres a few other meets where people goto and race. keeping up is a must though, cops went after us a lot last year so I wouldnt advise being the slower car.
