Oh yeah. Karma is having a field day with us. Trying to figure out who I pissed off.

Even had a dyno pull set up for next saturday. Don't see that happening now.

The carnage. I guess I need to look on the bright side, no one is hurt. Reminds you to be careful and take your time.

Hi. One of you fine gents dropped a OGTA card into my window. I didn't realize you guys were this local. I see one of you in w/ the turbo every now and again.

I don't know if I qualify completely, "old guys with 12As" I'm 19, and I drive an 88 vert. But hey, close enough right! Soon to have a 89 vert with a V8 on the road,

Your car needs a beer. Looks very grumpy.

Stranded, does this mean that we'll see you Tuesday? Come on out, man.

Ahh! That was ME! I was driving to Zaxby's and saw the vert there at the church, and this time I decided to stop and give you a card. I started to stick it under the wiper, but it was sprinkling so I wiggled it in the window. And I'm not a turbo... it's just the hood Anyways, there's a meet this tuesday. You should try and come. (Dont be fooled by the threads title, I'm only 17 and I'm a regular.)


And I snagged a quick picture as well:

Nice find Brett, I have it on my watch list, thanks. You other guys keep your grimey hands off. Cathy made me a display case for the rest of my 7's, I'll bring them along tomorrow.

Stranded, as far as being 19 goes, it is the nature of things that you get older and wiser. So it seems likely that someday you will be older and driving a 12A. Then you can change your handle from "Stranded" to "Bullet Proof". And of course we would love to see you and your 7 tomorrow evening, bring your camera!

I'll print out some more OG@TA cards, might even wash the 7.

No Fooling.

Ray

Yes i can. I'll either be in an 87 4x4 chevy or an 84 318 bmw.... Either way i'll have room.
I figure 50 for all three? Only since scrap guys are bringing 20 for a wheel with no tire, but I'd rather them go to good use. Just let me know, i'll bring them either way just in case you want them or what not.

The phonedial wasn't but $14, but I told you I'd get it and did. It'll be at the meet on Tuesday. I don't need a phonedial, so someone can pick it up for you, or it'll be in the dumpster.
Was that first part directed at me? And if it was, left right?
That totally sucks that somebody took your tools. I hate Theives.
Oh, and Crit, if it somebody doesn't get that phone dial i'll cough up $15 bucks for it, and Friday I'll get that money back when the scrap aluminum guys come so you don't have to throw it away lol.

No, the too-late comment was because Brett was telling me that he didn't need the wheel. Collin and I were at the same car on successive days to pull the same wheel that Brett needed. I don't need a phonedial and my garage is full of other stuff, but it would be tough to just throw one away. I was just super-pissed about my tools and willing to scrap the wheel. It looks like Brett will take it anyway.

See y'all tomorrow.

Yes yes! $50 sounds good with me. And I'll deff. be at the meet. I'm going to go ahead and buy the one off of Crit today just so I'll have an extra...

And now, I'm off to Crits to help Collin install his new shocks...

Austin, it's about time you got your butt out of the house.

Given all the families that are showing up for these things lately and the long and useful late spring daylight, why don't we figure on a photo session in the parking lot at 7:30?

Remember, Cherry Cokes till you're 21. After that you need a designated driver.

I'll be there at 6:30 with my petroleum jelly and windex for anybody who wants to put on a last minute shine.

Well Stu the May meet is actually May 6th, the first Tuesday of the month, not May 13th.

Man, to have a 20 year old's view of the calendar.

But since you feel strongly about it, and you are Vice President, we could do the May meeting on Wednesday May 14th and make it a kind of rotary birthday party, if you know what I mean.
