Well, it's official!

Tomorrow will be the first meet I miss since I started coming.

We're leaving for Vegas in about 30mins.
I'll be back late Sunday night.
My wife is running the Las Vegas Marathon.

Have fun, and don't go anywhere too exciting or have too many great stories since I won't be there.

lol.....i'm not running any virus protection software either. i used to, but not no more. unfortunatley, the only anti-virus software i do have is now outdated =\. people always ask me for something, but don't actually have something. the only thing i have that is kinda good, is the microsoft anti-spyware thing. it's a free download from microsoft's website, but if you don't want the hassle of d/ling it, i'll still make you all a copy

hey guys...do not delay...there is a RACING BEAT exhaust on ebay right now......hurry up. It is at 150 bucks (obviously it will go up)...but this may be a chance to get a used exhaust at a reasonable price.

speed..I can imagine that you posted all those wheels so that you can play around with photo shop Maybe I can get to the new sigs a little later, maybe tomorrow. I've been staring at the computer for awhile now, posting all those pics from today, and I'm starting to get a computer headache. What do you want added to it (just more products...or pics...like the pic above of your system)?

will putfile work for you? they allow you to upload upto 25Mb video clips for free. anything larger than that, and you gotta register w/them (not free).

Seriously though, that was such a great day compared to last night's rain. It was nice hanging out with everyone at lunch, I'm usually rushing off to work.


Here is a bit more info about the autocross on January 14th, which takes place on our regularly scheduled 2nd Saturday of the month.
main site:
www.solo2.com

January 14th Practice, hosted by my school:
http://www.solo2.com/eventpage.asp?eid={338C8C53-2E8C-4B4F-A913-F975CA2C652C}
This page should update in a couple of weeks. The entry fee will be $60-70. Like I said, the events fill up quick and I can guarantee 5 people a spot if they can help set up in the morning (show up around 6:45am, depending on when the sun is up).

Some more info for first-time autocrossers:

Great pix, I will try to post mine soon. Last night we got our xmas tree, decorated it and then all fell asleep in front of it. Today I will be a little busy but hopefully get to post a few. KC I cant see the video (dail-up) but I wouldnt mind downloading it for a view hours. I do want to see the black spinning/spending rubber The tight turns were a lot of fun, very much like Malibu (malibus are tighter longer and a little faster also easier to see because there are no shadows). This was a great meet for me, I hadnt gone on a run with your guys since before sevenstock. Already looking forward to the next meet, maybe I can ride with a few of you ?

Keith the RB exhaust looks pretty beat up, to pun intended. Any opinions. Good price but doesnt say where it came from, how much it was used or why they are selling it.

I would assume it is coming from a salvage yard, and would assume it is from a wrecked 8. Just my guess. Pretty beat up...well, Erica's exhaust was thrashed when we bought it. We got some Mother's metal polish and made it look brand new. The only thinkg you should worry about is how the tips look, since the rest is really hidden under your car. If the tips are really bad, you could always order two new one's from Racing Beat. You may try calling them to see how much two new tips would be, and factor that into the ebay price, as well as shipping.

A used exhauust, unless it has been rear ended or dropped off a cliff, would work just like a brand new exhausts. Exhaust don't really get used up, it's not like the wear down. After all, Borla warranties them for life. I would suggest bidding on it, as you don't see too many used exhausts for sale.

Forgot you hadn't been on a cruise for awhile until you reminded me. Yah, like I said, can't really compare Malibu to anything. There really is nothing like that out here. This is why I want so many of us to go out there, just once. Maybe you can describe to them just how fun it is...and whether it is worth the drive all the way out there...since you will use an entire tank of gas, maybe more.

KK was DEAD when he got home. he took a 3 hour nap, and was still dead, and then he went to bed on saturday at 8pm, and then he woke up at 2am (sunday morning) to drink some water, and then he went to bed for the rest of the morning, and then some idiot decided to run the clothes dryer (which is right next to kk's room) at 7AM (Sunday morning) and now KK is almost alive trying to write a research paper

lol, someone should really think about installing a toilets in the mountains off of the highway...


i will post my pics monday morning.

ah, and another lol, when we were going through the run... towards the end of the run i should say... i had to slow down, because this infection was really messin' with my cordination and reaction times...

wow... after typing this message i am feeling alot better lol...

great meet folks
