I havent driven it since before Nov. and before that I only drove it on the weekends I bought the G8 at the end of the summer so I was driving it more just cause it was newer.

My TA is def one you can hear I'm suprised I havent been pulled over just for how loud it is. I have gotten to the point were I wont mess around in it because I know if a cop is anywhere near me they will hear it cause it screams when its at 100% I'm hoping to get a new rear for it in the next couple of months the only thing keeping me from doing it was I planned to pay it off but now the rear is the same as pay off so I'm stuck on whether to pay it off and not drive it for alot longer or get the rear and pay it off later

I'd get the rear end. Which rear are you wanting to go with?

Yes Travis, it's me, (Matt you spelled it right) Celeste.

I am getting ready to start cleaning up the TA since I have told Ray he is never going to ever get it back But he has his slow *** H22 civic to play with so I guess he's fine.

I do want to get everyone together though and maybe take a day trip som where like maybe Jack Daniels or something. ( I LOVE that place )

Anyone up for it after the weather warms up a little and the sun starts to actually shine? Would be nice to take the T-tops out without freezing my butt off...
Dont make Ray put the smack down on you, talking about his Civc! LOL!!

That sounds cool. Just have to let me know in advance so I will break down and actually wash my car.

By the time it warms up and gets nice outside I should have it back out.

I know how that is. Hopefully I can get everything put together and get my car back out soon.

Good luck with the build!!!

I literally did YEARS of research on every option before I got my S60. If you have any questions about rear ends, manufacturers, common problems with each rear, sponsors, components, etc, then feel free to ask me. I ended up going with the Dana 60 because there very few people reporting problems, and I don't think I've seen a single problem where a person has broken something due to exceeding the power threshold... oh and it was the cheapest (to include the driveshaft). I was a little bothered with the thought of having to get a different driveshaft at first, but Eric at Midwest Chassis explained to me that pairing an indistructable rear end with a stock driveshaft and expecting to bracket race is a recipe for disaster.

Let me know if I can help.

I'll be setting up some more buffalo wild wings meets soon. Our last one was in Nov. But as soon as it gets a tad warmer I'm going to set it up and hope we have a nice showing. We usually get a few guys together and go "play" a little bit on the interstate or wherever.

Im down for whatever. Just have to let me know Celeste. Also looks like Ray is calling you out!!!! The battle to see who is the fastest of the house hold. LOL!!!

That sounds good BJ. I tried to make the two meets at BWW but it seems that stuff kept coming up at the last minute. The next time I will try to come even if I have to ride with someone. LMAO!!!
