[QUOTE="Blk03SVTCobra, post: 1537577, member: 10866"] Sweet man, congrats! :thumbsup: I just wanted to thank everyone who came out for this event. It was actually shocking to me that we had as many Terminators as we did. We had to have had more than 35 there total. Here's a picture of just a few of the fellas that showed up: [ATTACH=full]1265064[/ATTACH] The meet at the park and ride was sweet and so was the nice cruise down. The track was awesome, except for the fact that people felt the need to breakdown every other run. The had something like 34 breakdowns or something? It put a big dent in the number of runs we were able to get in. Oh well, that's why there's always next time. :thumbsup: It was definitely good to hang out with guys from as far away as New Jersey, Pennsylvania and Northern Virginia. I appreciate you all making the long haul down to MIR for some fun. I hope you all had a good time. I REALLY want to thank J.R. and Tommy for basically swapping Dan's cracked half-shaft right then and there with significantly less than all the tools needed for the job. I'm sure Dan appreciated it greatly. I certainly did. Just goes to show you the kind of group we got here fellas :thumbsup: Now, as far as the write-up for the replacement of half-shafts, here it goes: 1) Remove the wheel on the side which has the broken half-shaft using J.R. (JRS BLOWN SNAKE) and Tom (F8L BITE) while trying to look like you're doing something serious 2) Remove calipers using Tom and J.R. while trying to look like you're doing something serious 3) Remove rotor using Tom and J.R. while, again, trying to look like you're doing something serious 4) Have Tom and J.R. remove and disconnect a whole lot of other stuff. :bash: Make sure that you're pretending like you're really helping. 5) Remove broken half-shaft. 6) Insert new half-shaft, making sure to have Tom and/or J.R. do everything for you. 7) Have Tom and J.R. replace/reconnect a whole bunch of stuff. [B]IMPORTANT:[/B] Do whatever is necessary to make it seem like you know what you're doing. 8) Watch J.R. replace tire and tighten lug-nuts. But in all seriousness, a BIG thanks again to J.R. and Tom for lending their help. Without your help, Dan wasn't going anywhere. I hope everyone had as great a time as I did. We will DEFINITELY be doing this again. I really like the idea of making a club out of this (Mid-Atlantic Cobra Owners?). I also really like the idea of renting out a track.

J.R. would like to make sure that there's one thing we CAN'T forget about: The MIR "Strobe lights" P.S. Jason, PM me your cell or something.
