Yeah - took me a while to read all of this post whoring today. I actually have a life and a job that requires me to WORK during the day. Wierd huh?

 

me too, just sometimes I work hard and other times I hardly work...

Keith: did UPS show up yet???

 

not yet.

UPS UPS UPS, wait I think I hear something.....


nope.


UPS UPS uPS

 

hopefully UPS Shows up Tuesday for me, UPS UPS UPS!

Hey Casey can you get a silver or matlic Racing for my banner before sevenstock? i dont want the chrome. thanks

 

thanks erica

 

cesar, denward, you guys interested in doing a practice day for autocross. Rick is interested in doing a practice day as long as he has some company. Rick is SPT05 on the Autocross thread. He has been competing with us this year but wants some more seat time.

 

Cones and Zaino don't mix..........SS9 safely :D

 

You mean for the 14th right?
If that's the day, yes. The next practice is the week before SS9. I'll probably be applying another coat that weekend. (Jedi Style)

BTW - UPS Delivery of my Zaino kit is Monday 25th. Sweet!

I'll post more info tomorrow, but just so you guys know, Costco has 16"x16" Microfiber towels - 24pack $10.
I looked around a lot today. That was the best deal by far!

 

even better than the Wal Mart deal?

 

Sounds good Cesar. Car went in to ****** to get recall work done today and it should be done by the end of the day I will let you all know what happens.

 

ok, there is way too much to read here, but from what I get....there is a zaino waxing party at the keith/erica house on Sept 30th? I want to come. I need to bring a clean car and zaino and that's it? I'm going to be gone all day so do talk too much!

 

My car is at Redlands Mazda for the recall work.
I need help with the chant.

New Engine!...New Engine!...New Engine!...New Engine!...New Engine!

I got 51K on mine. It'd be sweet to have a new one now.

 

Did anyone else notice that Zoom Zoom Live is on Oct 28 & 29- ie the same weekend as SS9?

Autocrossing fun all day w/ Mazda's cars -or- look at SS9 cars all day? Hmm... Seems like a no-brainer for me... Someone convince me why I should go to SS9 again? <LOL>

 

First of all, Zoom Zoom Live is not autocrossing.
If fact, if you do hit a cone on a course while driving fast, you'll probably get kicked out. It's not as fun as you might think. If you go on Sunday, you'll have plenty of time to enjoy the event.
Their fast courses are 25-30sec courses, and there is a 1.5hour wait minimum.

I may go on Sunday, but only because I live so close. I wouldn't waste a day going if it was any further.

I went last year, and was sorely disappointed. The Toyota version was more entertaining.

- Cesar -

 

I too was rather disapointed with zoom zoom live. the "auto cross" part of it is you driving their RX-8 at "spirited" driving levels. the course is so tight you never get any speed up. if we were autocrossing for real we would leave it in first but they make you shift to 2nd instantly. if there is nothing better to do, then go. but if you are trying to decided between SS9 and zoom zoom.... SS9 hands down without a doubt. if you are looking to auto cross, then come out to the track with us on a practice day, you will have WAY WAY WAY more fun!

Do Both! What Do We Have To Do At Ss9 On Sunday? Saturday Is The Main Event.
Saturday - All Day At Ss9
Sunday - All Morning At Zoom Zoom

 

Oh And I Think There Is A Zoom Zoom In The Ie And The Oc At (different Times) Check The Website Out!

 

there you go!

 

YEAH I GOT OUT BEFORE THE MILITARY COUP. I WENT BACK TO ORDER SOME PRODUCT FOR MY STORE WHICH WILL BE OPEN BEGINING OF NEXT YEAR. I DON'T HAVE ANY CARBON FIBER STUFF AT THIS TIME. I WILL LET YOU KNOW WHEN I HAVE ANY OTHER CARBON FIBER ITEM.

 

i like loren's suggestion too. so, sounds like the plan then... i'm not an experienced auto-crosser like u guys, so i actually had a lot of fun at ZZL... i think if i get there bright and early on sunday it should be possible to get quite a few runs in b4 the circus zoo shows up.

 

OK results from the recall (have not picekd it up yet). New plugs, New PCM Program, and New part added /raplaced? to the catolitic converter. I will let you know how she drives when I get home.

 

Detrich, if you liked the zzl autocross, you will LOVE a real auto cross. you have to come out sometime. I promise, you do it once and you will be hooked.

 

Here's the info I gathered yesterday w/ regards to car stuff.
I did not go to Autozone yesterday, but I knew the prices on the Autozone items I listed.
"X" Means they don't carry it, or I didn't look.

 

you guys are WAY to into the wax. I have created TRUE car nut NERDS

 

well i might end up missing ss9. and even the meets for awhile . my boss told me he might promote my asst. to manager at another location. if that happens i'm back to working 6 days aweek til they get me somebody which might not be til next years .. on a good note i'll have so much money the mods won't hit my pockets too bad...
