I just went by there today go get some 8" vinyl number to stick on my magnetic rectangle thing for autox.

they were really helpful and by the time i left they had made me full decal sheets w/ my class and number that was custom fit to my rectangular magnet sheet. it was perfect. then even cleaned my old crusty magnet sheets and put the new decals on.

the sheets were setup so the class was toward teh front of the car on both sides, regulation letter/number sizes, and he put little alignment boxes on them that would fit the corners of my magnet sheets. whoa! hah

its looks sweeeeet. hah only $16 too

so yeh, id recommend them.

oh and my magnetic sheets are just air vent covers from lowes. its one and a half sheets taped together on the back.

Another vote for them. They did Emmie's original "feet" magnetics and they came out really well. I had to replace them a few years ago and I went somewhere else (downtown Raleigh)- they came out looking like crap.

Now I have to replace another one, so I'm back at Express Signs for this job. They still had the old artwork from 1996, so they're on the ball. It's costing a bit more than $16, though...

OK Wes, I can't take this any longer!

There is only one way to settle this: A Carolina -vs- Duke fan auto-x PAX-off!!! :twisted:

In the light blue corner, we have:
The Fishers, The Johnsons, Donnie Barnes and me! :brow:

In the dark blue corner, we have:
Wes Eargle? :lol4:

Anybody else want a piece of this action or should we just go ahead and declare the winner? :nana:

Jim

Actually, a "March Madness" AX theme event might be a lot of fun. We could come up with some way to divide people along team loyalties, etc.

Jim: HS and GS and STS2 PAX vs either SM or CSP?

Yeah. How about a duel when you guys get guns and I get a spork.


You want a challenge? Breakdance off. I'll bring the linoleum and the Pumas.

I've never named one of my cars before but after thinking about it, maybe "Boogaloo Shrimp" would be perfect for the CRX? :idea2:

OK, maybe not...

Jim
- who is now wondering if quoting himself constitutes talking to himself?
