I would say yes.... you would be the best one. If they are doing nothing and you start accually doing work, you will be a great asset to the company.

pit crew: we have a problem
driver: what is it
pit crew: we just got an email and there will be a delay in the start of the race
driver: %^&$

So i just got an email from amazon telling me there will be a delay in shiping forza2 out and i should expect any time from now until the 11th of june. I am going to go to gamestop or gamecrazy or curcitcity to pick it up today. the stores all open at 10. you think any will be left by noon? does it get released at noon or when the stores open. gamestop has something about 1 o'clock i think. who will have more should i leave at 10:00 to go get it!?

im going to the police academy in less then a month and i dont want to get kicked out before it starts.

also, im getting a kenstyle rear bumper and although i like a center exhaust look better, i think ill wait until after the academy to change it.

I was thinking the same thing this morning. I'm going to leave it in for now but if the dealership even tries to blame the SS, I'll swap it out right there and prove them wrong.
I'm hoping my local dealership steps up to the plate on this one.

@ Jorge....yes, definatley switch out the shifter, like Michael suggested. Very good suggestion actually.

@ Gerry, don't worry about your transmission....you're more likely to have cob webs in your tranny rather than gear grind issues.

@ Loren, yes, go down and get it today. Best Buy, Circuit City are good options. Then, when you get the one from Amazon, just return it to the to where you buy it from today (just keep your receipt and return the Amazon one before 30 days is up)....I think Best Buy's policy is 30-days after purchase....as long as the game is not opened.

NO way that is a NSX...that is a 4-seat S2000. Add some back windows and it looks a lot like the RX8...don't you think.

Again, there is no way they would transform a NSX into a 4-seater. Really no reason to transform a S2000 into a 4 seater either.....

@Jedi54
Hope everything gets fixed, but I would seriously consider taking the SS out before they see it.
They probably take note of everything that is related to the tranny, especially non-oem parts.

There are still a few of us that haven't had any issues w/ the transmission.
I'm close to 60k and no problems.
I don't believe SnoFl8k has had any problems.

@SnoFl8k - Is this right?
Code:
Statements                                                 Reasons
1. I have not had any tranny problems.                     1. Given.
2. SnoFl8k has not had any tranny problems.                2. Given.
3. SnoFl8k and I drive the same.                           3. Congruent driving habits
                                                            have congruent results.
4. SnoFl8k is a girl.                                      4. Given.
5. I drive like a girl. :(                                 5. Substitution property (3, 4).
I didn't want to continue to step 6, but if this is correct, mathematically speaking, I'm a girl.

But wait, if I'm really a girl, but I look like a guy, then I do have "Tranny" issues.
And therefore, SnoFl8k and I don't drive the same, and I'm not a girl.
(Thanks Sir Bedevere)

...wait, hold the press.....you got a free game with the purchase of Forza 2....? Where did you buy the game? I would not take the wrapper off of Cars...that game sucks. Take it back in a couple weeks and trade it for Lego Star Wars...I promise you that is a better decision.

Yup....we will all be busy.

yeah that was my idea....if not i can order the game i want and pick it up at the store.

Yes if you purchase forza2 or showdown you get a free $20 xbox360 game (lego star wars 2, cars, blitz, an army game and somethign else.)
