I can make the cruise this weekend if the rain holds off...

I won't have it IN the cruise since it will have 100K miles now, chippy paint on the hood/nose... and oh yeah... a whole boat load of raing gear in it...

Autocross in Washington , PA.... Sunday

Birthday party saturday afternoon, so I'm out for Zieli..

and my car is black tooo... well what's not chipped... have thought about going all F-117 with it in the fall... but that would hurt resale... not that the 100K miles would help...

 

send me a pm if u kno ure goin to be goin 100 forsure

 

Haha, yeah I did, didn't I. I guess we're getting enough "new" people that we could have another big meet just to get to know people. I think the original group is just SO used to seeing each other all the time it's not worth planning a "big" meet.

One of these weekends I want to get the car all shined up and show up at Irwin with my R-comps on the car

 

Annnd suspension mods begin for me... Might even catch me turning left AND right.

rear drag springs and diff mount insert, tightened up the rear of the car tremendously... need more now.

 

w00t! Can't wait for my suspension mods..

 

Whoa dude. Baby steps. Boats dont turn on a dime....be careful.

 

Hey now!

Construction of huge dime begins tonight, to prove Tim wrong....

 

Its a nickel...canadian at that...but its still a coin

 

Anybody see this?

1. Pittsburgh Pirates
Never mind championships, pennants or division titles, the Pittsburgh Pirates haven't even had a winning season in 15 years. One more losing season and the Pirates will tie the record for most consecutive losing seasons among the four major sports. They continually field one of the youngest and most inexperienced rosters in the league and are always rebuilding. The black and yellow team colors fit their plan of constantly being under construction.

Puzzling personnel plays: Signing Derek Bell, Jeromy Burnitz and Tony Armas, Jr.; and trading Aramis Ramirez.

Remember ... 1997: The closest the Pirates have come to 82 wins (otherwise known as a winning season) in the last 15 years was in 1997. They were expected to push 90 to 100 losses, but ended up as one of the league's irrelevant surprises when they finished with 79 wins. The entire team salary was $9 million, which was less than what Albert Belle made that season.

 

if I know I'll be WHERE this weekend?? The car cruise or the Autocross??

the way the weather looks, I doubt anyone will be at teh cruise.... rain or shine, I'll be at the autocross...

 

I'd be pissed if I took that in to spend it and it was only worth a nickel..

if it isn't one thing it's another...now my ABS light is on...

*shakes head* i'm tired of this car

 

I got the ABS light this winter. The tech told me it was a speed sensor and something else. Don't remember cause I was to depressed on how much tires were going to cost.

 

First things first, check the fuses.

That's the most likely culprit is a bad wheel sensor, but I've had it happen both on my Cav and my Cobalt that the fuse has either blown or come loose.

 

Well....

My ABS light came on intermittently last year... would stay on for a few days, and then go out...

I think it's been about 6 months since...

Go PENS!

Oh, BTW... getting a new clutch in the car next weekend... Exedy OEM spec'd repleacement.
Anyone know where to get a good deal on OEM STYLE axles???

 

Odd... I sometimes get the TC and ABS lights for no apparent reason. Hasn't been happening lately.

 

oem style axles?

u can get dss stage 2s...just stronger...def not any lighter
or a dealer imo...

and if i was doing a clutch id get the exedy 6 puck...but i know how u are about stock things lol

 

yes... the ONLY reason I'm going OEM spec is becuase of the Autocross rules...

If I was doing it differently, I WOULD be going with the stronger axles and clutch.

 

Wow autocross rules are a buzzkill again...

I made fun of tyger till he stepped it up, now hes getting a full suspension... and is looking at headers.... lol

 

Yes... depending on what you want to do, the rules are stifling...
but they're that way for a reason...

Once you "step up" into the ST, SP, and M classes... you can really have some fun if your wallet lets you.

 

Will anyone be out at the Irwin car cruise tonight? Taking mum out to dinner for mothers day and might swing by on my way home if people will be there. I wont be strolling through till around 7:00ish...

 

Can anyone tune me? Ive been looking for a tuner in the pittsburgh area and havent had any luck

 

Nope, no tuners here. We are teh nubz.

 

Tim, I should be there this evening after 6:30.... closer to 7

I was just by there 30 mins ago, and there was a handful of cars there...

Well, the car show was much better than I thought it was going to be... figured with cool weather, it would keep peoplpe away...
Good to see Tim& Erin, Dan and Steve there...

props to the Ferrari 308 GTB ( 78 or 79 I think )... that made my night.
