It was more of a squeal than anything...I came in pretty fast an a really tight turn. The rear didn't lose grip, the whole car just slide a little. It was a mini-drift! hahaha Also, once Pettit puts out their SC kit I will get my boost!

Do me a favor and find a hot friend to "thank" me too. HAHA.

phoenix_flame

lmao! Her hot friends are taken...but we'll keep our eyes peeled for a hot and decent girl for you. We won't direct any trash your way.

I8U

At this point, I don't think what gets thrown his way matters...LOL!

100+?? i dont know what are you talking about!!!!!!!

Oh no, I didn't ask DAVID to pick out a girl for me, I asked his fiance. Trust me, one of my brothers and one of my nephews were both sailors...I would not go that route, HAHAHA. Well Nic, you're partially right. I did tell you what's good in my life right now right? Haha. Still going, like the Energizer bunny...hopefully, haha. Basically, don't worry about it just yet Dave, I got it under control lol.

And Victor, you know exactly what I'm talking about, haha. Oh that's right, it was ANOTHER "RX-8 blue" 15psi FC with a PR flag hanging from the rearview. HAHA.

phoenix_flame

LOL!!! Thanks johny! Anyway, I'm not a REAL sailor anymore...I've been tamed by the great and beautiful redheaded one .......Wait a tic...Did I just make myself

AntiVenom7

^+1 agreed, haha.

mrthundercleese

Man, I go away for a few hours and you guys rack up another page on me haha. The CX-7 is nice for an SUV. It's kind of big and like Nic said, there is loads of lag. Overall if I were in the market for SUV it might be on the list.... but I wont ever be in the SUV market hahaha (thats what the 8 is for... 4 door kid mover right!?). I wont be a part of the new engine club so only sparkies, fuel, and detailing for me. I get my ride back tomorrow, will be good after driving the family mobile around all day haha.

Dave & Stina, thanks for the heads up on that car. Greg, don't bother going back to look at it. If any of you spot a NA S4 for about 2 grand in decent shape, let me know. Oh yeah, she wants it in orange but I told her they don't come in that color. haha, she wants a 5 speed too, she's mad I wont let her drive my cars.

speedjunkie

iTrader: (3)

^Oh well, she'll get over it once she has one of her own. It took alot for me to let Barb drive it. Now I wish I hadn't, haha. I apologize to her every day, but she still makes me pay with her high pitch squeel and boost leak, haha.

Good luck finding a car Jason, I'll keep my eyes open. Oh, actually, there is a red one in running condition in Goldsboro. The guy that mounted my tires told me about it. It's $1,000 I think. Don't really have any info other than that. Nic, you think you could find it? I think someone said it's on the backside of the base. Like out one of the back gates or something?

Thanks Bobby. I guess my search continues if I ever want an SUV type vehicle. Actually, I'm in the same boat you are though. Well, not EXACTLY. I'm not looking for kids anytime soon, I'm too in love right now with my two-seater with no cup holders. Ya know, a REAL sports car, right Nic? HAHAHAHA.

mrthundercleese

Oh nooooooooooooooo. No kids in the forseeable future for me, but for those guys with kids an 8 can be justified since it has 4..... seats... and dont hate on the cup holders hahaha

I8U

^^I'll look around but, I thought it was a FB??? I'll find out. And yes, a real sports car has no cup holders...but wait a minute, the Ford GT we saw at the last meet I was at had cup holders...what does that make it?

speedjunkie

iTrader: (3)

Definitely NOT a sports car! I can't believe...the travesty!!! Haha. Maybe it was an FB. The guy told me it was an FC but maybe he just didn't know his RX-7s.

Bobby, I have to hate on the cupholders. I have to either put my cup between my legs (and the boys don't like the cold too much) or sandwich it behind the passenger seat. Plus it was the only argument I had against the guys in my shop when they called it a Miata. No offense intended Joey, haha.

Thadeous

as funny as it is watching passengers hunt for cup holders i would like to use something other than my shoes.. not the biggest fan of cold feet

impulsive-rx7

iTrader: (2)

weirdest thing, my BMW doesn't have cupholders either. What are my chances of buying what's probably the only BMW model that didn't come with cupholders???

speedjunkie

iTrader: (3)

Chris- Ben told me he uses an old rotor, he said it holds up to a Big Gulp without spilling. Although that's alot of weight to add for a freakin' cupholder, haha. At least you know the cup isn't going anywhere though. Just not sure where on the dash to mount the rotor, haha. I've used my shoes before too.

Jason- You got one hell of a BMW sports car there! Haha. What year is that BMW, and what model?

impulsive-rx7

iTrader: (2)

I believe the correct term is sports sedan. It's a 95 540i 6-speed.

speedjunkie

iTrader: (3)

^Nice, take it to the Gap with us next weekend! Lol.

DREYKO

youve gotta set the rotor on the pass side floor, and when you have a pass, thats what theyre for lol.

I8U

Next weekend??? Are you for reals? I wanna go!

speedjunkie

iTrader: (3)

Well I know that BEN! Lol. A passenger has two hands...two seats in the car...conceivably two drinks...it's perfect! HAHA.

Yeah Nic, I wanted to go with you guys but I just didn't feel like I had enough time to get everything together. Even though the car was pretty much done, I still felt like it just wasn't the right time. Might have had alot to do with the fact that I'm broke, haha. Yes we are supposed to be going on the 23rd though. As of right now it's just Josh and I, and possibly our other friend Jason with his Supra if he gets his projects finished. Josh MIGHT have the FD-LS1 finished but not likely, so he's probably riding with me. CUPHOLDERS!!! Haha. It would be awesome if you guys could go again though! And what about Carowinds this weekend?!

I8U

I'd like to, but we are moving into the new house this weekend.
