Woot, I'm in the top 20!

On another topic, my trans is dying. In the last couple of weeks it started making a grinding sound while driving in all gears execpt 5th. Yesterday, reverse went bye-bye. I now have to be careful of where I park.

I was having a similar problem. I moved my wallet from a back pocket to the front. I haven't had a problem since.

The laptop only has a 60G hd. The company depot has a 250G waiting for me. I will use a company image on the new drive, slave the old one via usb, copy my profile to the new one and download any lost programs.

Same thing can be said of Illinois in regards to Chicago & Cook County.

I prefer driving, long distance, at night. It is physically less tiresome. There are less cars on the road.

I dont grocery shop much.
Gas $2.89 for 93.
Don't drink or smoke thank god. But i think cigs are 6 bucks

For here add:
$3 for lunch
$10 for dinner
20 cents for Gas (regular)
That is for the Suburbs. In the Chicago business district it is higher yet due to additional taxes and higher rent. There is also a $1 menu but it costs $1.29

My son went to Iowa State for Architecture. Dropped out after the first year. He decided that he didn't want that as his major. He just graduated. Majoring in Game Design and 3D Animation.

Reverse is gone. 1st isn't looking too good. Lots of bearing noise in all gears except 5th. I got a local guy that is going to rebuild it. I can't find a used one locally. Emailed Mazmart from their website and I haven't received a reply.

One reason those few back in...July? threw me off. There wasn't an advertisement in those, but I can see now that it was apparently testing the algorithm.

I looked at the poster/member's ip and geolocated it to China. I don't believe there are too many RX8 owners there. So, the Ban Hammer was used.

I used to fit. I haven't tried it since I installed the GTO wing.

I know I am getting downforce with the GTO wing and lowering springs. Once, I was driving in the rain. At 80 mph the car was stable. I slowed to 40 for an exit. The car got twitchy due to hydroplanning. Speeding backup over 60 helped again.

I really don't know much about the tags. I pretty much ignore them, unless I'm deleting them. You don't have the ability to create tags?
