Travis let Mike put it through its paces.

Yesterday I had Chris put some tint on the front windows of my 4Runner. Only took a half hour and looks great. Now they look so much better with the factory tinted rear windows. Funny thing is he did it while I was waiting for my wife to get out of knee surgery. Done in plenty of time to go pick her up.

Thanks Bryan.. I keep trying to get you guys to get your windows done, but no takers . You got a hell of a deal too. You guys come over I'll hook you up. If you need something in a hurry, I can get that too... Hope to see you guys at the BE show....

Soooo....he shouldn't mess with it? Did you go to the dyno and if so what were the results?

Hopefully he makes it back in one piece and brings it to the BE show.
My supervisor is bringing his BOSS to BE. He won a trophy the last time all of us were there, you know the day the field was all muddy.

Good MPG. Helps when its all freeway.
Hopefully he doesn't run into any over zealous cops who just want to bust someone with a loud exhaust and flashy car.

Hey Larry we need to change names. Chris' partner keeps calling me Larry so I think maybe we should switch.

We didn't get to dyno it...Hermann was up to his ears with a Turbo 03 Cobra yesterday

When we were test driving it trav nailed the pedal and i about shat...it was instant power and TQ

I was most impressed with how it handled and rode...For having a cage the car rides very nice and there is no such thing as body roll with it

was it a cage or roll bar? Either way it will stiffen the chassis and compliment subframe connectors. I wouldn't mind having a MM roll bar in my car but I think that would mean I would have to do the 5 point harness(which I don't want) in order to go to Epping.

so how are things in FL? I talked to someone the other day that just came back for the summer and he said it had been in the 90's lately where he lives in the winter. He was glad to leave because of the heat.

and what about your car? In the garage I presume. Its better than being covered in dead bugs or bird poo. At least ash will rinse off .

upgrading to what? new parts or a new car?
I'm waiting for my flywheel and clutch setup. Then I have to get my butt in gear and put the trans in.
