I'd say yes and no.. It depends?! What time did you start it, was it cold outside? Also, did you ever get that new gasket installed, might wanna check and make sure it's nice and tight.. There could be a lot of reasons why there was smoke coming out, one main reason is that you have a mid pipe with no cat. Go underneath your car and check everything bro.

Have you had problems with your Jeep's windows? Our windows keep falling of the track.

There should be nothing wrong with the white smoke - most likely condensation. Let me know if you notice any other symptons but premix should keep condensation down also but now you get a little of dark gray smoke - ya can't win

Oh yes, expecially the rear windows. They have a fix for them on warranty but Nancy now refuses to roll down a window .

Anyway how is the bite? post some pics if its big I want to see it!
It's actually not that bad it was swollen for a little bit but after it popped I put a band aid over it and self medicated with some of the wife's antibiotics that she had left over from a UTI a while back and it's pretty much healed.

I thought you get 3 day weekends? So you get one during the week and the weekends now? I found a 929 on Craigslist for $2500 only 2 days old. http://lasvegas.craigslist.org/car/722080604.html

Is there a meet tonight? Let's make it a food and drink meet! Thai? Gordon Biersch, Blue Martini? Happy Hour anyone? I will play some Xbox now.

Hello PurpleRX8? What are your plans during your visit to Sin City?
