Apparently the schedule is here: http://www.siblingrivalryshow.com/

Roll in at 5PM and show doesn't start until 7PM. Too late for your tastes? I'm borderline considering going to the Old Town event in Orlando tomorrow night also and coming back.

I was talking to a couple people, tonight... No one can make it, I guess.

Told Ruler_Mark that I'd go, but the FC is still out, until I het a hard-pipe to supply oil to the turbo; mebbe a week, or so, so I'd need a ride.

Ruler and the Potato are out, as well. so I guess just Kev is going? I B rideless.

I've had it in for a few weeks. Need to hook up the boost sensor and test that boost controller you gave me. I pulled the steering column out of the parts car. Tell me when you are in the shop and I'll bring it buy and you can get the stalks off it.

This week is kinda hectic. Father in law gets PET scan Wed, surgery will be scheduled either late this week or early next week. Churazco event in jeopardy due to family obligations but family comes first.

I'll let you know. I snuk away in the garage to rewire my fans last night in between kiddo bathtime and reading time.

Mark...nothing crazy...I'm just going to move my PLX stuff from the driver side of my car to the left. Super simple stuff. If I get crazy, I may install some shocks/springs as well this week.

I'm not doing **** this week with the possible exception of Thursday. I'd be open to working on my car in your shop tomorrow on the PLX stuff and maybe getting adventurous on Friday with Shocks/Springs if you don't mind me being in there while you are working...I'll bring that stalk of course.

Well looks like it will be a shotgun ride to Orlando then South FL for the Markham Park meet and then a quick turnaround to come back the same night.

Have lots of family stuff going on so this will be sort of a last hurrah for a bit. Anyone else from G'ville want to make a long round trip drive?

Sorry dude. I have a few things that are about to happen that I need to be around for. I'd be open to a local yokel run next weekend somewhere with Team Shinken.

My boy, who's a mechanic, just sent me a text letting me know something nice....

In case anyone's interested, Subaru (now located where Mazda used to be, on N. Main+39th) just took in a Red '91 coupe with 118k on it...

Not sure of the cost, and it would be a DAMNED shame if it ends up at the auction (those slime-suckers will pick it up, bulldog the **** out of it, then rape someone selling it) I'd love to have a coupe, instead of the vert, but I've got what I've got, ya know.

Get a hold of Subaru, if interested.

Spotted in the last 24 hours:

Blue (not MB) 99 Spec FD on campus. Very well done car. The owner needs to hang out with us.
Black, S5 Coupe, on Newberry headed West. Waved at the driver but no response. Looked like a clean car.

Anyone want to hit the Orlando Old Town meet with the Orlando guys first Friday in December? They might not let Mark in if he doesn't have the CF Monster lol.

This is true... Though it wouldn't be the first in Gainesville; I think everybody here's had their car in that state, at one point, or another.

HEheheheh.... Rat-Rod 7.

That's bad-***. You painting or wrapping?

My old sport bike was UA camo, for a while. B/W/G ACU DigiCam...

Looks good if done right... NOT so good if not dome right.
