I would have been at ORP but I was inspecting the car and I found out that I was missing 2 out of the 3 bolts that hold the upper ball joint onto the Upper A-Arm on the driver's side. The third bolt was about ready to fall out, that would have been real bad.

Yea, that would have been bad. I also rewrapped my clutch line in reflective heat insulation to keep some more heat out of the clutch fluid.

Hopefully I can make it to Muncie today as long as the Monsoon quits and the track dries off.

Man you guys suck!
I pay $130 a month on my 94 Formula, 98 Z28, and 2000 Chevy PU Truck. And thats for Liabillity on all 3! No full coverage at this time.


I am 24, For some reason I think it may be due to me having an accident w/o insurance and a total of 36 points against my license.

~Yeah I was REALLY Stupid when I was younger. I've been clean now for over 4 years; other than a seatbelt.

Just count the days until you turn 25, it should drop a LOT. I forget how much mine dropped, but it was probably at least 25%...

my luck sucks this year with Red Rocket. I had more air in my clutch M/C so I bled the **** out of it with the Mity Vac to get all the air out. Then when looking over the car I found out that the NAPA rotors upfront are cracked. I guess 3.5 seasons with Hawk HP+ pads trying to stop the rocket from 120+ finally killed the rotors.

I am so thinking of a TH400 on a the T-brake if this sum bitch doesn't shift the next time I hit the track.

Lets just put it this way. I lost my licence 3 times in April 2004 b/c of 3 insurance issues. 1 accident w/o insurance and 2 tickets w/o insurance. And since they were citations w/o insurance they were 8 points each. Plus I had another ticket on there as well, which added up to 36 points total.

But I took a defensive driving class to take 4 points off and I KEEP Insurance now. haha
And now I've been clean for 4 years, other than a seatbelt ticket last year.

Damn Motorcycle cops don't have anything better to do than write seatbelt tickets to people. But I was in the wrong so I just took the ticket.

Hey, yeah I do some; but with all the construction through town now it's a PITA sometimes... I'll probably be around town tonight, and head to Greenwood tomorrow night.
