OK lets all meet upstate and go to clemson for the autocross, i am defintly down for that. i dont know how she will hold up but i will give her a try at the track. We would have to meet early since it says registration is at 9am. I dont know if half of you guys know how to get up that early. I can plan on being in spartanburg or cola on friday night, so just let me know what you guys want to do.

I think if i come i might trailer the 7, this would be the longest i have driven it and the last thing i need is to have to get it towed home. As of right now i am planning on coming, i will probably be leaving from columbia, so rusty if need be we can meet somewhere in cola. call me when it gets closer 296-5625 So lets make a list of who all is going to make it. And is this going to be a offical meet in clemson?? Or are the rest of you planing on doing something else. Oh and nieto, good luck on the trio, we all know that you are just making excuses because you are scared.

I just got vert wheels mounted on my car and all four wheels aligned today. I suspected that my U-joints were going bad, so I got them to check them while they were working on it. They said that the U-joints are bad, and they also said that they think I have little or no oil in my differential from a sound it was making and that I need new struts and shocks in the rear.

So, now knowing that, I won't be doing any runs at the autocross if I decide to go. I won't be driving it hard if I don't have to until I atleast get some oil in my differential and new U-joints/driveshaft.

Well guys, i will definitly not be able to go to the autocross. I really wanted to go, but yesterday when i was driving my 7 it decided that it wanted to catch on fire, so needless to say i guess this is a sign, so i am gonna go ahead and pull the motor and do everything that i need to do to it (new torque converter, fix oil pan to stop leak, fix gas leak, and then port and polish) so i dont think that i will be driving her anytime soon. I am just lucky to still be alive since it was a gas leak that started the fire.

Damn Landon that sucks!!! You still palnning on making it a 5 speed? But it's good that you are pulling the motor out so you can get all the little stuff fixed. I would start from scratcn and replace a lot more things.

Yeah, there are a lot of little things that need done, so i will take this opportunity to fix all of those things, all i need now is more money. If anyone has any extra that they dont need i will be more than happy to take it from you.

quick ?.... for my efan im running it off the fuse box on the hot side then running a inline fuse of 30amp (the 20's kept blowing) but i noticed since the fuse box is at my feet that i saw smoke coming off the wire..but it wasnt melting or melted it was just really hot!! but i have run my fan like that for about 2 months now and drivin pretty long distances so.......should i just get a thicker guage wire?? i think its a 12 or 14 now but i have melted so many other wires in my box from my ghetto wiring (which is my worst) i could mold a dang army man fleet.........

well it sounds like maybe we need to decided on a spot closer to all the guys. how about columbia? And where is Reese? We are 5 days away from this meet. I rather have a good turnout than 3 at clemson. Since i'm not even going to race.

Thanks to all of the guys that offered me monopoly money, but i dont think that the bank will accept it. Too bad. Well i will be in charleston this weekend, not planning on going to columbia because i will have to work. So if the charleston guys want to get together that i could probably swing that. Since we are the only ones that meet up for the charleston meets. (well almost)
