LOL, mine did the same thing to me yesterday and today. Had no idea that I had to have the phone AND PDA volume on, I thought the phone volume would be enough for the ringer.

Mine performs as many functions as my computer and without disappointment, as many problems as well.
Anyone up for chicken and beer in Robinson tonight? Dan, Wes, Alicia, anybody?
Or better yet, a run out to Summit?

Wes gets off work at 4, is picking me up sometime in the neighborhood of 4:45. If we're doing Robinson, we'll have to go back to my house and get my inhaler unless we can bribe the hostess to get us a booth seat. My asthma's horrible today and Robinson puts the non-smoking tables way to damn close to smoking.

Getting my wheels put on as we speak. I went to PepBoys but they are backed up so I went to NTB. The guys couldn't get the stock lugs on the new rims so I had to go over to Pepboys with the rim so the guys could figure out which lugs I need. So I had to buy a set of locking lugs cause thats all that will fit. That was 31$. They charge a bit more then PepBoys(110$) to switch the tires onto the new wheels. I'll get pics as soon as I Pick up the car.

Which NTB???? The one in Monroeville aparently is a ***** when it comes to inspection, they rejected my buddy's car for having a window banner on the windshield. YES, I know they are technically illegal, but so it window tint on certain ones, and other places pass them.
Sorry... had to rant.
Wish I would've knnown about the chicken/beer tonight... I was hungry.... SS.net was being a tard and not loading on my computer.

I went to the NTB in Greensburg. Their service was very good. The guy changed the tires even though he knew it would be past closing when they were done. The guy at PepBoys was very helpful in finding the right lugs. Here is a couple before it got dark.

The wheels look great. The 6 "split spoke" design fits the car well. Glad you had good luck with them. ( NTB )
Dan ( jester ), did you check out my pics of the wheels??? You kept asking.. and then I post and I hear nothing.

Speaking of Sir Brian, um, there MIGHT be someone from State College looking for a roomie for Nats. But he's bringing his Gran Sport Corvette and I know how you feel about Corvettes, so maybe I should just tell him I don't think you'd be interested.

Sir Brian wishes not to leave stock class. Konis will give a lil bit of a lowering effect when they're on full stiff though.

Ask Dan P. about the clearance my car has and you'll know why I do NOT want to put lowering springs on the car... I get an occasional rub every now and then as it is ( up front ).
I need to look at my budget and see when I can get those Konis!

Just have to watch how low you go as not to really f-up your speedo readings. Mine seems to be very close. That's what determined my tire choice size-wise.

Probably not. I'm a little hesitant. We'll see though. I REALLY want to, but as Wes was leaving work yesterday he was getting a thumping noise and movement like a flat tire, but nto a flat (and not flat spotted). When we were driving back from Fridays I also noticed that the car is "wobbling" from side to side. So there's something not right there. I'm going to re-torque the wheels again tonight and make sure that's not it. We shall see how things go. I don't want to take a chance of really FUBARing something.

Well, the lower profile tires are not going to rub as easily as a taller tire. Stock tires are 25.7" in Dia. ( i think ) and the ones on the car are 25.9" Dia. So they take up more real estate...
