Yeah, I was thinking about it Mike, I figure with some airbags and coil spacers, we might be good. Actually the tires on the Accord are like new. I need to put a bigger tire on my truck that won't make me want to drive it off a cliff. The 265's are too small for my likings.

ha, I had a shakespear base station, hung out on channel 16, the base was pumped up a few watts and was hooked to a nice super big stick that had the tip 40 feet off the ground. my handle was " the bottomless pit " given to me by folks due to my never ending appetite.

boy what a slow weekend, was watchin the feed from the pinks trials at englishtown and did a bit of work for a side job customer and thats it.

Well nice weekend to have my future father-in-law's 60th b-day. They braved the summer traffic and rode down the shore for a BBQ/day of relaxing on Saturday. Took the g/f and her brother out on waverunners yesterday, and she and I went into the drink courtesy of a high performance boat at full throttle cutting through the riding area. Was a little upset at first, but was glad I could at least climb back on the thing. We were out there for about 45 minutes and we paid $75 for a half hour. I thought it was pretty reasonable.

Anyway, anyone up for wrenching on Saturday? I think the Conductor and I are getting together to put those speakers in my truck. Shooting for sometime in the morning, location to be determined. Anyone who has some work to do is welcome or just wants to come by and shoot the breeze.

That sucks, there was talk of doing on in easter PA which kind of fizzled out. Maybe try to get one of them fired up again. The one place, Torque 4x4 volunteered to host a dyno day.

1: solution to the problem, me get a job without a desk. It is a WIN/WIN situation!

2: Don't make me put this one up for vote Pres.

Sucks to hear that George, it is hard enough finding this stuff used, then it seems to get even harder getiing it in your hands...

That sucks George, hope you get your money back. I was looking hard at those 90hp tips for sale in the classifieds, but don't trust someone with 2 posts.

I did see that mobile dyno for sale, only $45,000. Maybe it will give Angelo 400hp instead of 385 like the last mobile dyno....

I will be headin down, guess we gotta figure out a time, and if we are going to eat at a spot close tot the track before we go in like we did last year. We should do a bit of bbq'n to cut down on food costs for ourselves and give us somethin to do while hangin out in the lot.
