Me and Annette went to the truck races and "open wheel racing" at the track a few times. The NASCA stuff is not that loud but the open wheel racing is loud as hell!!!

need to find a oil filter wrench like this.
http://www.tooltopia.com/index.asp?P...OD&ProdID=5624

only thing is you would need to stick to one filter and stick with it. I myself use the wix 51365 filter and picked up the same style wrench at checkers I think.

Just got new plugs in the mail. got them off ebay $65 shipped Also picked up some 8.2mm wires so that will be on the agenda once I get the car back from the dealer to fix the little things that are broke

Anthony, what do you sell at Chanel? Bags correct? Where is the corporate office? Milan Italy right? OK then you are a bag man for the Mafia.

lol yeah it took me 2 hours. my neighbor had a whole set of wrenches...the filter that came from the factory was an odd size. and since it was the same filter that came from the factory....they had cranked it on about 3/4 a turn too much, it was on there so ridiculously hard it was insane. If i had put the screw driver in it sooner i could have gotten in out sooner, but i wanted use that as the last thing i tried. k anywayyyy

phil where is your oil filter at?

here's a tip.
take off the a/c braket that's in the way. it's one bolt 10mm. it easily moves out of the way. this way, you can access the oil filter without strain and get a better angle of attack!!!
this way, you probably will never need an oil filter wrench.
try it. it works for me.

I waited for some one to post a food meet and no one did so you got stuck with me.

RED ROBIN

Las Vegas, NV 89102
Phone: (702) 364-1858
SOUTH OF SAHARA WEST SIDE OF DECATUR

The creative menu offers 22 different burgers--from teriyaki-marinated Bansai with grilled pineapple to the 5 Alarm with pepper jack cheese, jalapeños, salsa and chipotle mayo. Soups, salads, and entrées of fajitas, fish and chips and Cajun-spiced shrimp round out the casual American menu.

I need everyone attending to post your intension so that I can get a big enough table. I will also try to get separate tickets for ease of payment.
ATTENDEES


Phil, Nancy, Gilbert, Annette, Albert, Jason (MX193) w/kids, Marco, Niel, Brooke, Gary, Mario (Bran702), Maribel, Armin, Anthony, Jordan, Mike

I think, we'll have more people show up that are not on the attendee's list.. They are new members in our local group, but haven't posted in our thread yet. I have been speaking to them with PM's, so I'll remind them later about the meet again.
