You can do it!! Good Luck

i'm pretty sure that's part of the problem because my right leg goes numb sometimes while i'm running....but it's more that just a nerve....

so wait? are we going to the track? cuz i mean, i know it's more entertaining than just standing around at sonic....but the drive, gas, and paying $10 to get in just doesn't seem worth it to me....but if that's the general consensus i guess i'll go....it will be nice to go and actually watch some races versus just sitting in the staging lane all night, lol...

thanks man, but honestly i've tried the whole pacing thing in the past and it just doesn't work for me....

No. Not every one is going to the track. I'm going to see a friend of mine from Macon run. But Ron that's the trade off when you start modding your car. As for hanging out at Sonic those days are numbered for me. I'll hang out at the track a little more often in the future only when my cash is right. But your point is well taken too!!

WTF I got a small story for yall I had to share.


Today at 2:00 Pm, This kid rolls up in this black honda with bamma plates on it. He was having trouble with his turbo, saying it started squealing at Idle. So I brought it in the bay and pop the hood... OH MY GOD it looked like a bunch of monkeys high on acid did his turbo kit. SO I took off the filter that was zipped strip on there and saw where the impeller was rubbing the housing. I told the kid his turbo my be trashed and I ask him if I could take it off for futher inspection. He said it was cool. Once i got the turbo off and opened up its a pure case of oil starvation, and chunks of slag was in the bearing. I seen this other **** that look like JB weld. And guess what it was..... So he calls his boy to tow his car home. Dude shows up and starts talking ****... I told the owner of the car why is turbo quit. The problem started when he had the oil feed line tap in the head. Thats a bigg no no. His boy is the one that put his kit on. It had the ebay manafold on it with spider cracks patch with jb weld lmfao! So we went back and foward on how to build a proper turbo kit, and it got to the point he calls me out. His buddy claims he has a turbo hatch civic that runs real good low 11's I dont call bullshit on him. The race is supposed to go down next summer when he has his new stand alone. I bet him His car and 1k That I will destroy him on the track and the street. So it looks like the Z is coming out in the summer...

So if anybody is looking for a honda Ill have one for sale.

LOL!

Oh and I know a few of you guys have probably already gotten PMs from David on GAFBA.com, but for the guys that didn't I highly recommend that you check out that site. It used to be pretty popular back in the day, but it kind of fell off after it was remodeled about a year or two ago. They're trying to build it's popularity back up though. They have some pretty cool guys and you'll find plenty more guys in Columbus there. That way some official meets can be arranged.....Now all I have to do is remember my password, lol.
