So looks like weather is going to be nice (but hot) tomorrow. Can we get 9 or more FDs out at CFA tomorrow night?

Andy, did your wheels come in? You could bring them and show us. Perhaps we could place them in front of an FD and take pictures so you can see "what it will look like". Ohh but don't take any unauthorized pics...

Being my Birthday and all, you'd think I would do whatever the hell I pleased and go wherever I wanted, but since I am a loving husband and father (no laughing Scott), and given that I will being spending the majority of Saturday at the BBQ, I'll have to pass.

At least my wheels are done though. WooHoo!

Wish I could, the car is at PBC for the clutch fork... I should have that back next week.

As for the wheels, I should have them on in a few weeks. I need tires and Dan to roll my fenders.

Nice looking Volks Andy. What size and offsets did you end up going with? And what for tires? I look forward to seeing this beast in her new shoes.

All this talk of helping each other out, who is gonna help me with my parts? Nick, Vlad, Andy, Scott??? Free beer and pizza. I'll even let you hold my MD BBQ trophy!

Anyway, it is my father in-law's birthday today, so if I make it tonight it will probably be around 7:30ish.

Hey Matt, any chance of me hitching a ride on the track with you at Hyperfest? I'm slowly working towards getting my car on the track and it would be great to get my feet wet with a ride-along.

I'd be happy to bring my FD along once I'm a bit further into break in, but my weekend trip out to RP Performance/Hyperfest will probably take care of that.

I'm subscribing so I can keep informed....
