not sure when you saw it. IT was there jan 4-today (18th) getting a new LSA. hole in piston 7, and 2 wobbly pistons.

Was in there over x-mas for getting a new oil pump.

ha ha ha if you only knew!!!

When I picked it up for the repair and they said it was the oil pump and it fixed everything the car was still knocking/ticking etc and they said taht was normal and was the supercharger. Even said the zr1's knock. I told them no way no how, I have been in a zr1.

Went home, ran a compression test, brother came over and helped me retest it. compression was down to 100 on a few holes.... yeah took it back, asked them to run a test and see what's up cuz it's not fixed. Also asked them to look at my exhaust since it was hanging an inch low on one side.

Yeah they called me 3 days later, "ordering you a new LSA" When I picked it up, it sounds so good. Asked them about the exhaust and the tech started to blush. "Yeah your exhaust was hanging low cuz i forgot 2 bolts...." oh well it's all fixed up and running good. I wanna come out feb 4th on the MT's I got and see if I can run 11's stock....

I will see if "The Warden" will let me come out and play on Friday.
I KNOW I'll be at C&C Saturday morning since I missed the last one.
Then it's Super Bowl Sunday!

CAN THIS WEEKEND GET ANY BETTER!?

Hey Domsz06, I took your advice and took a look at this forum. It looks pretty good! The airaid intake is starting to sound sweet, I guess the car had to adapt to it?

Looks like the weather is going to be shitty on Friday, I'm probably going to scrub going to the drag strip. Hopefully the roads will be dry enough for CnC on Saturday.

I live off 290 and Cypress Rosehill now, but I haven't been seeing many black V1's.

There's a black V at that ihop on cypress rosehill and 290 all the time. I think he works there. And btw, I live off 290 and mason so it looks like were neighbors. Let me know if you ever need an extra hand, I'm down!

I work in that area so it could be me that you see near 290 and Gessner. I also know a guy that has a black V1 who lives in that area.

I used to see a silver V1 at Panera on 290 at Hollister all the time. My step-son used to work there.
