Which fan? Lol... I've got an engine E-fan, the regular ol clutch fan, and then the interior stuff... I'm pretty sure it's just the logicon, (hopefully).

I was there at around 7 with my friend and his girlfriend. We were just chilling there talking about old times (we used to be in middle school, but after his mom got preggerz for the 3440122987923874 time, his mom had to go back to Vietkong for some family help and left a couple of children there and my friend had to go to cumberland. We saw each other again for the first time in 4 years last year and we've been in ok, contact since then.

Will be there next week in the FD.

sweet!
the driveshaft was prolly easy to take off because it was replaced 'bout 2 years ago
thats actually an S4 drive shaft I got from Richard Mitchum
that exhaust is one of my favorite upgrades to the car besides the suspension
it improved the lower end of the powerband quite a bit

I was afraid of that and I hate it when people have fun without me.

I'll just have to shred those old tires by my lonesome...

I was actually going to talk to either Dave or Robin this Friday, but maybe bringing it up now would be better. You both have mentioned to me that you would be cool with me riding along with you on a run, and I'm grateful for that, but considering that that would effectively ruin the time of whatever run I joined you on, I was wondering if you would allow me to pay at least half of the entrance fee. Let me know what you guys think. Either way, I'll probably be down there at least watching.

I am at VIR right now doing a Trackdaze event.

You can ride along. Don't worry about paying, the people that are really worried about their times are the ones competing in the points race. I am not there enough to even begin to be competitive....plus the class that they put me in is rediculous.

However, you still manage to get like 6th place? WTF, Robin, you're leaving me behind. Grrrrr!!!!! Inspection!!!! Now!!!!

I think I would like to ride down with one of your guys. Do I need a helmet?

Also, I found out my physics teacher's father and brother run track!!!! =]

However, she always looks like she's drugged in the morning though.... Don't know if that's a good thing or a bad thing.

I'm willing to drive too, hmmm. What will you be driving? I'd probably take either my integra or my FD. Depends on how much gas is in either of them, LOL. Premium price > Regular price

did you get the steering in the FD fixed yet?
Actually for your first time out there I'd recommend the Integra since it a car you're familiar with and you won't be worrying about it.

you're not really worrying about gas at a little over $2 for super are ya?

I was planning on taking the 50mpg High Performance PieceofcrapCivic. Filled up this morning for less than 15$ from below the red line to above the full line.

hahaha, I was jk. I got the power steering belt on. Well, I just wanted to ride around in someone's car and see what it was like, hahaha. Don't want to drive yet. Still need to get used to driving the FD. I haven't driven it in a while because it's without an inspection sticker.
