Dave's still got a screw loose, but at least his car doesn't.

Would have liked to have seen the twin-charged Mini.

As for open-wheel car, was it an SAE car? Both Pitt and CMU's engineering schools run their race teams up there for auto-x.

 

No, that makes me the 4th oldest I think.

 

Ok.... as far as pics... I am swamped here. Maybe before I leave. I didnt' even eat lunch...

The Open wheeler, was a track car that the guy took the rear wing and nose cone off. It was set up nice. It looked like an SCCA spec racer type car. Not that it WAS one, but that's what it looked like.

I spent most of the day talking to the guy with the Mini. He's on RacePA and he was staged next to my cousin, so we BS'd most of the day. Got to hang with the WRX/STI crowd. Fun and nutty bunch of guys. All seem very cool.

 

Well, I'm 26... is anyone other than Uncle Brian older than me?

 

Big Ben is all over the news......bad bike accident.....he's at Mercy Hospital now

 

No news on his condition...but he did bloody his face and he is at mercy...that is all the hospital will release

 

Alley how did you paint the radio...carefully...or something different?? I have three of the pieces out and painted but i am going to wait to do the radio on a day i dont have to go to work.

 

Yeah, I just heard that over the radio. Stupid stupid stupid....

Why oh why would you risk that so close to training camp. You make all that money, and you do that. Don't get me wrong.... it's not like there's a law, and he's a big boy, but I wouldn't risk ruining my career just to ride a bike.

 

man, big ben needs to stop being so cocky! wear your stinkin helmet!

 

Helmet?? We don't need no stinkin helmets!

 

Bah, he'll be fine.

 

look at the size of his cranium... that thing is HUGE... it's got it's own gravity..

 

I didn't. I've seen pictures of that center piece painted and it just doesn't look right. We just painted the trim around the outside, no HVAC controls, no radio, and skipped the piece where the heated leather seats would be. (Eventually I want to cut that piece out and put a storage tray in there.

 

idk i might be the youngest, how old are you Wes, i think you told me 19 but what month were u born, i was born in march of 87? Also who is all going to the irwin car show, i should be there if i get my car back together and running by the weekend. These aftermarket clutch problems arer ******* me over and i cant drive my car couldnt go to thunder in the burgh or the irwin cruise this past weekend.

Dan

 

woot woot im the baby

yah these clutch problems are a bitch, CM called my dad and said they are gonna talk to GM about the hydro lines cause as eveyone knows the inevitable they are to weak cuz they are plastic.

 

Actually, it looks like Wes has that title by about 2 months... young whippersnappers!!!

 

Hmmmm maybe it's that NEW MATH that they're teaching in schools these days.

You can never tell anymore.

 

Little off topic, but I figured I would clean the car today even though she is broken.

I tried that Turtle Wax wheel cleaner Dave told me about. That **** kicks ass. It blows away the Armor All wheel cleaner I was using in comparison. Now she shiny, cept for the few bruises on the face.

 

FYI, Im turning 25 on June 22. Dont know where that puts me but it looks like im upper tier. Im willing to get together this weekend but saturday is kinda shot for me. I got to go up and visit my fiancee's(sp?) grand parents in Sharon PA and wont be back till late saturday. If anything is happening late late on saturday or any time on sunday let me know.

Wes, what is a "V"?

 

I think your referring to the Valentine 1 radar detector/locator. Expensive little device, but I heard it's pretty good.

 

Or the shape of Wes' front bumper.

 

BURRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN NNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN NNNNNN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

a lil off topic...but anone know of roads that are relatively flat and straight that we could do 3rd gear runs from 2000rpm to redline on? I need some tuning roads
