I hate hattiesburg plus i'm still sick. I've lost 8 lbs from this crap the past 2 weeks. We used to go out there at least twice a month cause no body had a cage and they don't give a ****. Too much BS with swamp buggies, 4 wheelers, and crash up derby cars oiling down the track and wasting the day. It's not that bad for you guys in slidell cause you're in the halfway point to HSberg and No problem but it's about 120 miles one way.

I got a bunch of **** in today that i shouldn't have bought, but i'm putting that on tomorrow and trying to hit the dyno sat. so i don't blow the motor before the new one is on the way and end up with a pile of junk i can't sell. I couldn't find a belt for my pulley set up that didnt' slip so i had to order a bigger lower crank pulley to eat the slack up, and i have some fuel system parts that came in. I'm on standby too sunday with the rear end deal. I'm going to pull my friends solid axle out his cobra, my IRS out of mine, and put my IRS in his in trade for some CC plates and strange 10 way adjustable struts.

Then i have to put the new solid in mine and i still don't have exhaust for it. Anyone recommend a good exhaust shop? I'm keeping my bassani mufflers cause i like the sound, and the tips cause they fit the bumper and contour. I need someone to make me some 2 3/4 inch pipes over the rear axle.
Awe! Cry me a river Justin Timberlake. jfwy. I drive from slidell to donaldsonville which is closer to you and run my car. Who knows I might end up on the lake too. Just come up on the 17. I'll have food so you can gain those 8 lbs back and then sum.

HELLLLLLLL no.....i need to lose 12 more lbs LOL. I'm hardcore with the sunday morning bike racing. I'm one of the fastest guys out there. 2 people faster then me weigh about 15lbs less than me but my bike makes 3 to 5 more HP than them and that's HUGE on a bike, plus i can ride. I could go for a smoothie though

I was driving home tonight and noticed i'm missing about 10 hg/in of vacuum. I usually pull about 20 inches of vacuum and it was at 10 tonight. Time to chase some lines for leaks, plus KB sucks ***. they couldn't design the damn inlet plenum to be removed easy, so i have to pull the ENTIRE blower to swap injectors. I'm wondering if the blower was loosening up somehow.

I'll be crying you a river tomorrow when i'm doing this injector swap. My hands are destroyed. I had to help a friend pull all the dynomat out of his car and that **** cut me all over, plus i'm burnt the hell up from mardi gras.

I hope to meet some of you guys at the lake sunday. I know the guys from the shop are bringing the red hatch and blue coupe again. Few of my buddies with GTO's are coming and my boy might drive his trans am. I know he's having transmission problems though.

LOL. Can't believe both twins and their dad are all down right now. We'll be out there again. Not sure if the care will be finished that quick. When i leave the lake i'm gonna come home and tear the rear out. Then drive to covington and pull his, put mine in, and come home and put the solid BACK in mine. UGH. Want to help?

You are not pulling an intake off the car were talking a rear end here as soon as you touch that rear end the gloves are going to tear.

Those rubber medical gloves can be used for protection. They're a five shot use if you include the thumb!
