Well -- X him off my friends list.


I can't hang around with guys that sit all day at car shows... just shoot me. That's like paradin' around at the mall with a super model -- when you should be home in the sack.

Ron --- The paint appears to me to be much better than when I saw the car at JCG.... (by the way -- since they worked on it you should have their decal across the front of the windshield) -- Did you have it painted??

Despite me giving you grief -- the car looks and sounds awesome... even if a Chihuahua is louder.

Not only did he probably just stumble on the car show he probably hasn't been home since he picked it up.

Car does sound awesome though.

I'm thinking he hasn't made it home yet. You know, stopping every 5 miles to get out the quick detailer.

SHOW TOURING FTW!

I know it's tough waiting Bro, but you'll get your turn to drive.

SO the car has 40 miles on it and you want me to go straight to the track?

The car was the belle of the ball at Super Car Sunday today, just my opinon and I might be biased. Dustin (SC Sunday organizer) wants to shoot it for Driven World magazine and I met a couple of members that recognized the car. Not bad for two hours. It's all about the people, right G-Dub?

~ 93 db at idle. That was a loud, yappy freakin dog!

Dick and company did a buff and polish and the paint is pretty smooth. Not perfect, but good enough to ruin at the track

Man Sieg you don't miss a beat. Trans is a little notchy and the clutch engages about an 1/8" off the floor. Makes for some tough shifts. Not good, and I'll have to deal with it next weekend.

I'm a ProAssumer too

Possibly need a bleed on the clutch slave?

My T56 Mag was finicky the first 5 hundred miles, the next 1K miles could have been described as notchy, after 2.5K miles it's butter. I've ran Mobil 1 from day one.

If it doesn't show signs of improvement Trans/Bell/Crank alignment?

Okay -- That's got to show up as somebody's "signature" around here... That's just funny as hell.
