Ray, you must be getting CRS disease (Can't Remember ****). We talked about this last month and agreed to move the meet to Taco Mac. Reasons: the food is bad and the service is terrible. Same reasons we left the last place.

Yeah but is there a LBW at Taco Hack? And a 10% discount?

It seems to me this vote is divided along party lines, beer drinkers (Old Guys with 12As) vs soda drinkers (Young Guys with 13Bs).

Sounds suspicious to me. We need to hear from Crit, Holly, Jeremy and Mike on this before it's official.

I'm not sure, but if there is a LBW at Taco Mac you are 300% more likely to see her than the one at No Service Kilt.

Don't worry, Ray. It's just another Republican conspiracy.

I used to worry about Republican Conspiracies but after watching the last two Republican Debates I'm convinced they don't have the collective intelligence to pull one off.

It's the Capitalists we need to worry about.

Does Taco Hack have Draft Beer? That isn't flat?

And what does Holly think?

And Crit, who selected the Shrinking Kilt for our meetings in the first place?

And Mike and Jeremy, who both prefer 12A's to 13B's?

I am going to try to get by TM and talk with one of the managers. See if they are open to the idea of a regular meet. Also, see if I can get them to kick in a discount.

I have been trying to cut back on the beer, but I'll take one for the team.

BTW, rumor has it that they have nothing but LBWs at TM... just saying.

I like tacos. Sounds good to me.

Martin some of those Young Guys with 13Bs are into turbos, I think Brett has two or three of them in his FD.

If anyone knows fcs, its Brett. As far as turbo fcs, that would be a toss up as I know he said his specialty would be NA.

Btw, anyone know anyone who does frame straightening? I'm really about over it now, everytime I want to do something it seems that front left support not being perfect messes everything up for me. Bought very nice sideskirts (s4) but cant install without s4 trim for the front fenders, which I was just going to buy widebody but if I try to bend fiberglass to fit the bent mount, I foresee ruining some fenders. Almost at a point of wanting to just buy a second rx7, swap all the goodies and go from there.

Taco Mac - TMac - New meeting place for OGTA

Ray, my vote is to try taco mac. The food is much better and the draft beer selection is the best. Hopefully Mike can get us a discount, and we're all set.

I haven't made it out to any meets yet but I am rather familiar with FCs I've owned several over the last 15 years(no AEs yet-jealous), if the car sat for a while check the throttle cable it may be stuck, the throttle position sensor and the pressure sensor would be my first three guesses, definitely sounds fuel or emissions related, I have a bunch of FC parts let me know if you need anything another member(87 t66) has a for sale thread with a ton of S4 T2 parts too

Holly said so, so it is: Taco Hack for the Win! See you dudes there 10-6. And there'd better be lots of LBWs.

"anyone know anyone who does frame straightening?"

Cam, I've got a real nice chain and a tree and I've got the touch with stuff like that, you want me to have a shot at it?

badsvt1, sounds like you should come down for a meeting and help us with these turbo FC's, they are a real pain in the butt.

I am learning, quickly at that, and would second the idea that it was TPS. that was my first thought actually but Id rather keep my mouth shut than remove all doubt if I knew what the answer was or not lol.


Ray, yeah I know that trick, just seems like no fender or anything else I decide to add is ever going to fit right if I dont find a way to get this drivers side square.

Ray, Taco Mac is a misnomer for a name. Its not a mexican place.
They do have a good draft selection. Drink enough beers and they
give you a tshirt. When you go there join the club and get the card.
Every beer you drink is recorded and tallied so you don't repeat
unless you want to that is.

I know Taco Hack isn't really Mexican, that's why we call it Taco Hack.

Thanks for the info on the tshirt, but I think I'll pass on that. Who wants someone counting how many beers you drink?

Especially for a tshirt with Taco Hack advertising all over it?

Good news about the excellent draft selection though, it will be much appreciated during the many serious discussions we'll be having about the candidates over the next year.

Martin from what I hear turbos are like vacuum cleaners in reverse. You can even make one out of a leaf blower.

So just think logically and it should be obvious.

Yeah Ray, I hear they have to share that info with the NSA as well. Good decision.
Can't have the gubermint monitoring your alcohol consumption or anything.

Them democrats do that you know.

Taco Hack has a Brewniversity Program. I just need 47 more beers and I'll have a Ph.D, just like you Ray.

Yeah, Tim is right, the gubermint is tracking my drinking.

This Taco Hack place is sounding better all the time, I always wanted to earn a second PhD.

Tim and Mike, you need to learn to appreciate what our gubermint does to protect ourselves from ourselves.

Take for example the recent law Obama passed prohibiting people under the age of 25 from carrying engine hoists in their passenger seats.
