My friends hatchback was up there today, the blue one with 10 holes having the tranny rebuilt. We dropped it off thursday and it was done 2 days later.

I actually saw your friends hatchback up there today, Jay was finishing it when I brought my vert up there around 2:30 so he could weld the air pipe on my H-pipe shut. Your friends car sounds pretty good, but the 10 holes are hurting the look.

Dave, tough break at the art show, man. :(

Well, I'm really not complaining that much.. I did get a ribbon and a $50 gift certificate, but that's pretty much just an "Honorable Mention" type thing. Out of 150 entries for the show, 51 of them actually got in the show ( me included ) then 10 of those got an award.( me included ) So, I'm pretty pleased at how well I did for my first time.

According to "everyone" here, Erich's car has that " Nascar " sound to it, and he's got Magnapacks or MagnaFlows or whatever.. and THAT sounds great. So I dunno what everyones definition on " Nascar " sound is... but what he has is awesome.

dg... Are you serious dude? Lol...that mph is dead on for low 16's. My v6 Camaro, before I sold it, ran 16.48 at 84 mph. Of course you could just be making it up out of sarcasm..who knows.. But....yeah, I feel your pain man! I too had a slow ride once. 17.1-ish when I got it. Made me good to know I chopped over half a second off by the time I sold it on only minor mods...

Actually, I just picked a time off the top of my head that felt right for a 4-cyl. Then said 84 because my digital speedo stops at 85 and flashes, and I don't think my car can get much faster than that in a 1/4 mile.
 
Another gripe I had with the art show:

There was one "big" award for best 2-D art. That means one big award for whoever had an actual drawing or sketch, whoever had a photograph, whoever had a print, or whoever had a painting, or whoever had a digital image. Now, in my opinion, there should be an award for each individual genre of 2-D art.
Best of Show - Drawing
Best of Show - Painting
Best of Show - Photography.. etc..
But no, aparently 2-D art is 2-D art and that is that.

Look at it this way:

One person can get a couple rolls of film, take a hundred pictures at random, 3 of those pictures came out really good, just by chance. They enter those into the art show and take home an honorable mention and Best of Show award for the 2-D genre.

Meanwhile, the "real" artist spends hours and hours using an actual talent to CREATE something out of nothing , creates an incredible piece of work and walks away with just an honorable mention, while the " photographer " walks away with Best of Show for accidentally taking a good picture.

How fair is that?

:nonono: :( :mad:

Okay, so I guess I am complaining. :p

Tomorrow, he'll be ordering some AFR165's then doing some research on what can he should get since he already had a GT40 intake (Not the greatest, but he's going to use it since he already has it). I sold him my welds and they have some really nasty worn tires on them right now......that's why the 10 holes are still on, hopefully he'll be buying skinnies doon got up front......eh, i miss my mustang :(

you should come out to the 1 yr. MMORL anniversary meeting at Hooters. I'll be there, and I think Dan said he's going out too (along with all the other MMORL members). And we never did go see the ring...:p :jester:

well, since im getting fcuked at work, i wont be moving out, and i wont be in orlando friday night for the mmorl 1 year thing. right now, life sucks, and someone needs to shoot me!
 
1Bad89...neither. 3.1 Camaro. It's basically a 2.8 V6, but stroked. 140 hp, 185 ft lbs stock.

Josh....remember before I told you friends of mine said my tires angle out with the car when I turn hard, and you said I must have stiff as hell springs? I jacked the rear up. The springs gave no sag whatsoever. Soon as the pumpkin came up, the tires came off the ground. I checked for binding devices, etc..but didn't see any. There's about a 3/4" gap between the coils if I remember right, and one of them has a green tag on it but I can't read what the hell it says...faded off. All I know is though...i gotta get those SOB's off of there!
