I'm still going to the rental. VMP scheduled another rental for the same day. So that is why alot of people got bumped. I dont think there are any spots left. Its around 50+ cars going already. You guys should still come up and watch plus there is a T&T afterwards.

I might ride up and watch, I'm not bringing the truck though, I'm having some issues with the 6 miles of driveshaft under it right now... it seems to want to eat U-joints all of the sudden... I need to check out my pinion angles and do some adjusting. my drop has it all thrown off...

I replaced two of the U joints in it less than a year ago because my rear U joint just flat out broke in half... I replaced both joints on the rear shaft. now, the one by the trans is making noise and vibrating its *** off.... I need to just call Denny's and have them make my a nice 3 1/2" steel two piece with a CV in the middle... thats about the best way to fix it... a ton of truck guys have problems with the driveshafts when they go to 4.10 gears because of the RPM's you put it at... I really consider myself lucky it hasnt let go so far... its been 140+ mph with these gears and stock driveshaft

didnt really think of the 3.8 as a girl car but yeah b4 that i owned an 86 tempo and an 85 blazer.
anyways, just testing the water, wanted to see if it was possible to say anything at all up here with the words civic in my signiture and not have at least a couple people pop off with some wise *** post. cant say im surprised. normally i'd suggest you find a hobby, but it seems like already your taking the one you got a little to serious as it is.
