Ok so what time is the cook out and what time are we leaving to go on the cruise. im woundering because i have a college oreintation on the 6th at 10am. i heard the cook out is around noon so i might have to miss that. but what time are y'all leaving to go on the cruise because if i miss the cook out i deffinately dont want to miss the cruise and the drive in.

 

kinda curious myself...haven't really heard any details of anything that is going on for sure. except of course for the cone killing that will be happening sunday

 

so does anybody know cause ive been waiting for this and i really dont want to miss it. i might have to miss the cook out and thats bad enough

 

nice avatar quote, Rob-o.

speaking of which, I need to hit the strip for some tuning...

 

so what are the plans for this weekend then chuck? as long as i can get my issue worked out with my brakes i'll be up for some cruising and some beer after that

 

im down for beer

 

dude I dunno what to say.

My life is so fucked up right now.... I am trying to just make it through the next minute, hour, night....etc... one moment at a time..

 

do you think we will know by friday if everything is good to go

 

lets just get wasted this weekend

 

all i wanna do is finish up my brakes friday night...and autox on sunday. so that pretty much leaves saturday somewhat open for me so someone let me know if anything is going on here in the fort

 

ohh and by the way...someone give chuck a cookie to cheer him up

 

ok i will when i see him... well then i guess ill come up saturday night and run with ya'll at autox

 

is the auto x at navistar? i got to work out some coolant line stuff but im down. and im always down to drink some beer. i got a wedding to go to on sat at 6 but after im done with that im down for whatever.

 

The autox is at grissom aeroplex at the airforce base on 31

 

not looking pretty for me right now......still can't get my brakes staightened out even after messing with them for 12 hours today and like every night after work. i'm presently stumped with what the hell is going on with them

 

what all have you tried

 

three bottles of motul 600 brake fluid 30$ , 5 calipers 80$, 4 braided lines 90$, 3 mastercylinder 80$ (final one), 24 hours of estimated total time working on brakes, thrahing on a car all day at an autox or lapping session.....priceless!

finally got her all fixed so i'm all ready to go...as long as nothing takes a **** when i go out and try to break it again tonight. so lets get some **** going!!

 

rob gimme a call me and james are down to drink some beers jack whatever tonight

 

well i just got home from autox and i was 1 of 3 rx's there. where were you guys i was really looking forward to meet and hang out. oh well at least i know that i can beat a z3 out there and im mostly stock. my worst time was a 67 (1st run) and my best time was a 62 )4th run)

 

yeah i had the gold first gen, i believe we actually chatted there for a second before out heat. i didn't know that anyone else was still coming due to a lot of circumstances that have be happening up here no one was able to make it out. i did manage to get down to a 56 though even though i was fighting some engine issues off and on through out the day (and my co-driver forgetting to turn the fuel pump switch on....opps)

 

lol thats good... yea i didnt realize that was you, dont i feel like a dumbass, i also found a prob with my tires i was using, they were too big 205-55-16 when i need 205-45-16 the tires were rubbing my springs and it went through the coating and some of my spring is exposed. and i thought my engine was going to over heat so i had the guy with the purple 2nd gen spray my engine a couple times and it worked pretty well. also i left right after heat 2 was over cause i needed to come home so i was woundering if i missed anything, but that was my first autox event. for a first timer with a best time of 62 is that decent?

 

for what your car has done and being it was your first time that doesn't seem to far off to me. it just takes time to get the hang of that kind of driving style. i have more of a road racing style myself so i'm still trying to get accustomed to it too. so if you enjoy it, just go and get some events under your belt and you'll start knocking some serious time off of your runs without even messing with your car.

 

are you going to the champoinship tis weekend

 

i'm not to sure as of now. i love driving my car...but i really hate standing in the sun all weekend for like 10 minutes of track time over two days. i'm trying to save some cash for labor day weekend, i'm planning on going over to pennslyvania for a NASA 3-day event on beaverrun's road coarse.

 

i hate standing in the sun too next time im bringging a canopy. let me know how your run in pennsylvania
