Holy ****, so what really happened tonight? Can anyone give me some details? That **** was crazy, and I was so close, but I didn't see anything.

 

BAAHAHA!!! That movie was SOO ahead of it's time dude... I love that thing...

Lolz. Basically: Honda Odyssey > Toyota Paseo.

The Odyssey was trying to turn left onto Huguenot, trying to beat the traffic I suppose. I can only assume he misjudged, and completely nailed the guy in the Paseo.

 

"I hate my life!!"
kicks Odyssey



see this is why I try to go every Friday if I can
so much weird **** happens right there

 

Fixed that for you according to Actual Quote. Lolz... I got a closer look at that kid when I was talking to the cop, and it's not actually the kid I was thinking I knew...

Still crazy...

 

thank you for clarification

and boy did he F*** his life

glad my son was there to see that, so he can see the direct result of bad decisions
he turns 16 April 20th

 

He didn't actually kick his door, he slammed his door, hahaha.

That really sucks. He was trying to beat the traffic? The paseo was hit in the right fender wasn't it? And how old do you think the kid is?

 

He did slam the door but then he kicked it when he shouted above quoted phrase. He couldn't have been more than 17.

Dave, I really REALLY wanted to talk to you about your house last friday, but things obviously got a bit hectic. PLEASE don't leave this Friday without letting me ask you about it...

 

Oh and also... I've kind of been in a fret about what to do ever since you told me that I actually want my suspension SOFT for Autocross... Does this mean I actually DON'T want to install that RB rear sway bar? Cause I kind of feel like I almost SHOULD just because I have it... Anyways, I'm trying to read up on the subject, but I'm having a lack of luck trying to find information...

 

I'll be there, basically I'm looking to rent it fairly cheap right now if someone wants to put up with my renovations.

Soft in the back stiffer in the front, if you get the swaybar in though I can help you compensate for it.
I also didn't bother with the rear sway because I got lazy at one point, it's much harder to intstall when you have the full exhaust system - it should be much easier now.
Basically I'll adjust the end links for you so you don't have any preload on the swaybar, the front swaybar is set dead nuetral right now and the back is at whatever stock was.
Really what the car need is some f'n camber up front, the car understeers like a bitch - at least for me it did, but I like my oversteer so who knows.
We may have to go for a test drive soon, and i can see what's up with second as well
Even my Miata understeers, just ask Robin he's seen me slide, spin out, etc... in that car at an autocross or 2.

 

oh and holy **** I was watching Top Gear on BBC America and they actually liked 3 American cars - Corvette ZR1, Cadillac CTS-V, and Dodge Charger.
Jeromy clarkson actually set a land speed record for a production vehicle at the Bonneville salt flats with the 'Vette.

 

You mean working on the house while it's being lived in? That should be fine with me, I'm looking for a place I can afford to live in, maybe with one or two other people... I'm just desperate to get out of my house but also very poor...

I feel like a swaybar would help keep the rear planted, but I'm confused as to what you mean by soft in the rear, as in Body roll? Or... ? What's the benifit of having preload on the swaybar? I have noticed the understeer as well... Lol... Let me know when you have a free weekend and we'll take a ride...

Ninja Edit: Bushings. Did you have new ones for the RB swaybar? Or do I even need new ones?

Ninja Edit No. 2: Where the hell have Robin and Alex been?? I'd like to talk to Robin about that TII tranny he's got...

 

basically yeah, floors need redoing, walls need to painted, back sunroom needs the ceiling ripped down and redone plus some flooring, lotsa little stuff - we'll swing by at some point and I can show you.

we'll talk at Starbucks this Friday - this would take waaaay to long to type out
the rear endlinks are also Racing Beat adjustables, the original endlinks wound up on Robins old LS1 FC
you know those FD types, always afraid to come out in the cold

 

No I'm talking about the actual Swaybar bushings...

 

oh those,
they should be in the box of parts I gave you
if not i'll look around I know they came with a set
they'll be white metal with red poly bushings

 

Yeah, I saw a picture of 'em on RB when I was checking them out, and that's what made me think, "Wait a minute... I don't actually remember getting any bushings..." I've had a quick look around and can't find any upon first inspection, but I'm home later this evening due to afternoon Psycology (PLEASE shoot me!) class. I'll have a more extensive look around tomorrow, but if you could keep an eye out for 'em as well, I'd appreciate it...

 

Robin got himself a new chica ; )

-claps for Robin-

Alex, is busy with work I think.

 

Oh really? That wouldn't happen to be the chick that he brought a few weeks back would it?

Well... New developments as of last night, My best friend decided he wanted to be in the hospital having seizures so I may not be there on Friday, I really don't know yet...

 

tonight will be 50/50 for me as well
Diane is currently having contractions every 15 mins or so
This could very early labor or just Braxton Hicks contractions http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Braxton_Hicks_contractions

Then again i may really need some coffee tonight if it's going to be a long night.

 

Haha, no, not the same one, and that was more than a few weeks ago, that was in late December!

Hope all is well with your friend. I will let you know when I speak to Zach.


I won't be there tonight, off to VIR....

 

Sweet!! Best of luck to you guys!! Have fun!


Was it that long ago? The one with the Jetta? She was a cutie...

He hasn't had any more seizures since the ones on Wednesday so hopefully he should be discharged by this afternoon... but we'll see...

Good luck at VIR mate! Vids of the run are a must!

 

The Jetta?! I think you have me confused with someone else!

 

whos gonna be at the meet tonight? is there one?

 

there is one every Friday - sometimes it's as little as a dozen sometimes it fills the parking lot
the odds off me attend have gone up as the wifeys contractions haven't gotten any closer
I suspect it's the BH prelabor contractions
Anywho, if'n I (or maybe we) make it down I'll be in the silver BMW 323iT

 

thx man!

 

It's really strange when people show up. Sometimes it's a great night, and no one shows up, but when it's the coldest night of the month people show up. It's really weird.
