it was a cool - run - would have been better if the leaders didnt take off and i got stuck with a group that had no clue where they were going - my buddy and i got video of it - somewhat, but since we arrived so late from the rest of the group. didnt get all the cars. i hope i have a much better experience next time - but i still had fun.

Looks like you blew it coming off the on ramp.
i was behind you. Big cloud of smoke came out. And you went straight instead of turning with us.

lol yeah it kinda sucks but im not too worried about it.

it had 195,000 miles on an engine that has never been rebuilt, so going 120 down the tollway wasn't exactly the smartest thing lol.

so while its down im going to do a t2 swap, unless i can find something else in the area. and i always have my A6 to drive around in the meantime.

anyways thanks for the support everyone

HAHAHAHAHA!!! sorry man, but that is HI-larious. You should leave the grass in there so next time somebody says that your car smells like a lawnmower you can say "Well no ****, look it eats grass!"

goddammit all i gotta do is put the ffff....reakin pulley and belt back on and put PS fluid in........ BUT..... i can't get that god forsaken f'kn metal key off of the old pulley shaft to put into the new shaft. WHY can't they just give you a new 5 cent piece of metal with a reman instead of making me waste an hour with no luck at all to reuse an old one which is about to become a useless one if I keep at it.

Welp, i feel better now..... I pegged my dog in the face with a snowball and he gives me a "wtf!?" moan then proceeds to cover his face with his paws. Oh and I finally got the car all back together and working.
