Don't think Erica or I will be going. The idea of getting together with Rotor freaks is cool, but the memorial thing is just eerie for me. It was hard for me to attend last year, but my feelings to provide support to the family immediately following the accident was stronger...so I went and am glad I did.

I think it is awsome that Jessie spent so much time on the gift he made. I know it will mean the world to the family. I appreciate those who are going in my place...as this is just not something for me.

I hope the weather holds for you on your drive to Palm Springs...as there is no way you will be making a trip up the mountain. Be safe guys.

 

so who is going tomorrow? Time for a list:

1) Jedi +1
2) The Beagle +1
3)
4)

 

where is everyone?

 

i will be shreading up the slopes all weekend! (with my newbie skills)

 

I know Jessie and Casey will be going.

I know Cesar, Loren, Erica and I will not be going.

 

so who is going tomorrow? Time for a list:

1) Jedi +1
2) The Beagle +1
3) speeddemon
4) Vipers
5) Scrmn8 - ???
6)

 

BOOO

BOOOOOO

BOOOOOOOOOOO

 

is cool dude, I understand. I can see how that can be a little earie, and a little awkward. If I didnt know him I am not sure I would go myself.

 

Met the guy once. (my first meet with the san bern group)
But a group of rotorheads getting together, i aint gonna miss it.
And showing support for the family, aint nothing wrong with that either.


It is a great chance to take your 8 out for a get together. When will you ever have a chance to do that again?

 

i can't go either- have to work tomorrowz...

oh, and i just found out that i have to go to saddleback church on sat 2/9, because my nephew is having some sort of dedication ceremony (for newborns) in the am... <ugh> the planets are aligning to make sure i can't make it to any meets in 2008...

 

Can't come February 9th? Did you come to the December 2007 meet? Thats the only one I've been to, so I'm still trying to put names to faces.

 

i can't remember if i went or not. but, i think so. (the last meet i went to i remember being REALLY late- had to meet up w/ u guys on the 138 at a turn-off.)

i am usually there every month unless something comes up though.

 

Since many of you guys don't get out of the West Coast forum.....

Well I got good news, I will be back from Iraq on the 15th of Feb SO it will be cool to see everyone again.

TO answer questions from the past post. I was going to get an Audi R8 but after talking to a guy who owns one and getting his advice, its not worth the money. I thought about replacing my motor with a RX7 motor but its too costly, I thought about getting FI done to my RX8 but dont know about that. I did buy the NIZMO 350 Z as a final decision. With the money left over that I was going to spend on the Audi R8, I will be able to FI both the RX8 and the Z. I change my mind a lot and get a lot of advice before I do something. Sorry for the confusion!

On another note: As you all know I have the AT RX8, well let me tell you, I had my mom call PST and order a custom CF drive shaft and went with New Pulse plugs, They ignite better from what an Import Magazine said. My dyno was 145 whp stock and with the RB cat replacement pipe, exhaust, intake, and Cryo 2 spray system. I pulled 190 whp on a mustang Dyno. From what the guy said, if I would have used a dynojet dyno, I would have pulled a bit higher. He said that the new drive shaft compared to the old stock steel drive shaft that the AT has. It freed up a lot more HP for me. Still not as good as some of the HP gains I saw with the guys who have MT, but that is a big jump. It cost me $1100 for the new drive shaft and the Cryo2 system was free from my new sponser. I just cant wait to drive my car again. Having all the work done via email and Family sucks. So again hello all and I look forward to seeing you all again. Just hope the plane home does not crash now lol

Jordan

 

WOW Jorda! I'd like to see you again when your in town.

Email Phil

He is an AZ member or get a hold of MM Mazda Manic.

He has auto with Pettit SC, that is the way to go.

Won't pass cally emmisions but no FI will.

 

Jordan, be safe those last couple of days.

Glad to hear you made some decisions on your cars....it is always hard to feel you settled for less than you want, but it looks like FI with the Z and your ideas on the 8 will make things work for you.
