Might have an old friend from my days at OKC stop by. He is somewhat of a Hypochondriac when it comes to his truck and want me to look at something....Ironically he had a pick up near DFW airport (OR Dallas area) on sat.....couldn’t have worked out better! haha.....
ALSO, Nick (My best friend) says one of his customers drives a Dodge and is on this forum. He wants to meet up with one of yall to start coming to the meets. He has a DTT tranny in a 3rd gen.....but i dont thing much else....talk about starting off on the right foot! haha....I told Nick to tell him to swing by if he had time....

Yeah. They are going to check the push tubes and the rocker bolt and what not. Its definately not a good noise. Sounds like horrible with the engine running. For now though i'm headed home to look at graduation presents.

Mike, When does your banner ad start running? Have not seen it yet. Got a web site to send people to for the taction bars? I'm getting lots of pm with questions better answered by you. 
I'm limiting my responses to my own experiences and saying contact XLR8R for the rest!

Mike, are you selling stock in the company yet? Any chance of getting an IPO?

FYI, TAB locking ring works fine...as long as constant load on the rear axle! For me it's min of one full turn (guesstimate) and medium hammering on the tab.
Been tight on mine since both Brian & I set them the same way.... on Sunday at Sedalia. I checked them last night. We both did 1 & 1/4 turns. Nothing else needed, IMO. Brian ?

Just got home from driving the G35. First thing is I'm most definately getting a stick. That triptronic crap sucks. Second that car is very peppy on the bottom end but lacks big time on the top end. I guess I'm just used to the brute force of the truck and the Vette. Fun car to drive though. Fit my whole family in it with ease to. The 08 models are gonna have 30-40 more hp and they look even cooler. Also went and mom test drove a new lexus LS460. All I can say is WOW. You talk about one dang nice car. Also saw the lawyer for andrea yates up there. We had to keep mom from going over there and telling him what she thought of him defending her.
My buddy's went and tightened up the exhaust rocker and lashed it all up and his truck is still making a horrible ticking noise.
I've got an Ipod dangly thingy. It's cool.

A g35. I gotta have something I won't modify.....heavily. Not to mention I would like something with a tad more class and refinement and dad definately ain't giving up his car and I ain't sure ain't getting a new vette cause mom's afraid I'd kill myself (she's probably right). I won't buy a ford and I'm tired of being treated like crap from dodge (did I mention my power steering pump is going out?), the only chevy I'd get would be a camaro and I'd play with it to much. So yeah, I'm looking at a nice luxury sports car. Something that isn't a handful to drive with service that I know I can trust and I know that they will treat me well. Wait a sec. Why am I rationalizing my thinking to the most unrational person in this chapter?
