Damn, I’m almost ashamed to post it’s been so long. All I’ve had for the past two months is Excel budget hell 24/7, which is about as bad as a snake with no traction.
Can a guy who hasn’t even washed the beast in months creep back in the NW forum, or must I consume the entire XXX menu to redeem myself?
If you have it in your hearts to be gentle I’d be most grateful.

Hey Jakal, thought you'd fallen off the edge of the earth. Good to see your back. :burnout:

It sure feels like I’ve been on another planet. Glad to see everyone active though: a new beast for Mean and XXX Saturday – things are hopping almost as much as my vert. I should get some time off week after next which has me thinking about BilletFlow’s kit with the Strange shocks. And if I’m nice, Santa will drop off the MGW shifter. Getting in gear and staying there would be a treat in this chilly weather – these cars love cold air!

It would definitely be cool to have another get together. Drag racing or some kind of cruise would be fun. I like Christian’s idea of a dyno day as well. I was the guy driving the Sonic Blue Cobra with chrommies for anyone wondering who I am.

My drive home was pretty cool too. Ken (kj385) and I did a couple quick highway runs. I came to the conclusion that I need a pulley so Ken stops beating me, lol. It was pretty sweet cruising with another Sonic Blue. I kind of felt like I was following myself :) A few miles down the road I came up on a C5 Vette and noticed the guy looking over. I put it into 4th, got on it a little, and the next thing I know he pulls in front of me and takes off. I then put it into what I thought was 3rd and floored it. Hmmm, this doesn’t feel right. Well, it turns out 5th gear isn’t the best for racing from a 60 mph roll:cuss: I tried to catch up with him to see if he wanted to go again, but the guy was driving pretty crazy through some heavy traffic so I backed off. Oh well, maybe next time.

Joe,

Glad to have met you and your wife! You should get in touch with Rick (the Black Coupe with the Magnapacks) he's selling a few of his items... still in excellent condition: 2.80 pulley for one!

Should pick them up before the dyno run!

Boy I thought everyone was cussing me for going the wrong way. I did find out today that we could have kept winding through that apt complex and it drops you off right into that shopping area.

That's ok Dave... I needed to burn the tires a bit for some traction!:thumbsup:

Good times!
