Aw Mark, that really sucks ass.
The new grille looks good, but not what I was expecting to see after a trip to paint....you were holding out on me!


I JUST refired my car....again. Hopefully I've got the gremlins exterminated this go round.

Your car looks great! It does suck you wont be able to go, not that I'd be there to see it in person, but it still sucks.

i may not make this one :(

i have to wait to this thursday if i can get this friday off

lame new company rules.well not new rules the rules are still the same my company just likes to change them whenever they choose to.. the rules are.. one driver, one warehouse,one sales and so on could have off at the same time. but since the warehouse is short on staff they only want one person from the warehouse/driver off at a time. and someone in the warehouse is off for the next to weeks which is only permitted if someone going out of the country and that person is going to Colombia.. and this trip is right in the middle of that persons time off.

but my company said if friday is slow i could take the time off...

so i have to wait and see..

oh and sarjxxx it's scott right i'm going to need a phone number to reach you at if i am able to go and you want me to pick you up on the way..

Hittin my loose ends punch list today
  • Replaced rear u-joint - picked up a vib on the dyno at ~115mph
  • Warrantied out the starter - wouldn't crank when heat soaked
  • Smaller pulley on alternator - slow turn signals at idle
  • Shorter belt for smaller pulley
  • Replaced Idle screw - head stripped out
  • Third bottle of water wetter this year...:punchballs:

So far so good.


Oh, and I am workin on a lil thing for the car that will not be seen on the forum till after ThunderCat day :evilgrin:

If I wasnt saving for another car I would bring the Orange car down. I could use a little road trip right about now. Would be interesting to see how much power it doesnt put down.

sarjxxx is not coming. He can't afford a hotel room, food, gas for the trip, or to take the time off work that he needs in order to make the trip. He is very sad and hopes everyone else who is attending will have a great time:cheers:

I want to go so bad! But it's like a 15-hour trip for me...and Monday is my district's first day back to work for teachers. I've thought about it all summer, but there's just no way. :disappoin

Y'all try to have fun without me. Maybe next year.
