Total Est. Distance: 676.87 miles. Wonder if I should take a day of work to witness this historic event. 10 hour drive. Hmm..

philodox 01-14-2005 04:38 PM

I'll have my camcorder there to take video. I'm sure Jeff probably will too ;)

You are always welcome to drive up. I'll buy lunch for whoever travels the longest distance.
Right now, that would be Jon, but I don't think he would be upset if you beat his 160 miles. :D

Hehe.. if you came from 4-5k miles away to see the dyno runs, I'd buy you dinner for a week, not just lunch ;)

Want to finish seeing how the engine runs with the turbo.. then I'm doing a street port.. who knows, maybe i'll throw nitrous in the system with the turbo eventually.. but that 'may' be a bad idea... lol

Ο φίλος μου - έρχεστε, θα σας ταϊ'σω. :D

RotorManiac 01-15-2005 07:36 AM

^haha^ you guys are great!! Jeff, I have to say I'm shocked:) I remember that you are related with Greece, but I never thought you can write & spell (is that you writing:rolleyes: )

Jon, I know its not easy to do them both, I was kidding, but porting is some serious stuff... hmmm, well, how about you both come down here in summer for free vocations:D for as long as you want? You port my engine, and jeff does his turbo magichttp://home.covad.net/~carrillo/emoticon/whistle.gif

:D

Hmmm... how are the beaches in that part of Greece? Are you near the Med? :):):):) You have me debating that offer.. hehe

RotorManiac 01-15-2005 08:21 AM

Med? not sure what you mean, but generally I'm all over Greece;) south&north, to be more specific, capital&2nd biggest city. what else could you ask for? 100degrees F, endless beaches with all the sand colors/types you can imagine, nice ladies, noumerous islands for all the tastes, tourists (and refugees, oh well...) from all over the world...

have I convinced you:D:D

Med = Mediteranian.. didn't want to look up how to spell it properly.. hehe. Just didn't know if you were near the coast or further inland.

poolsidenaz 01-15-2005 08:57 AM

Philodox & Mazda Maniac may I ask a :o question :o
When you are conversing in Greek how do you get the letters to appear like that? I mean, there's nothing like that on my keyboard.

Just wondering. Now back to your thread topic :D

Rotarian_SC 01-15-2005 09:46 AM

They just hold down Alt and randomly peck at numberpad keys ;).

Actually there is a character map under system tools in the start menu where you can get them.

Did you say 4-5K miles away? Ok right on I'll be there. I was thinking about getting my car dyno'd as well at Altered Atmosphere they said for 80 dollars. And maybe take me out for a spin? Ahh Im excited now.

slllygrl10 01-15-2005 11:48 AM

I think I have work that day but I get out at 2 dammit. If you guys are still there I would like to swing by.

Paul_in_DC 01-15-2005 10:58 PM

RotorGeek 01-16-2005 12:15 AM
