your choice of hobbies does not make you any less desirable to hang around with, your choice of alcohol on the other hand James..................

and since ya'll won't dumb it down for folks like me............. :sleep

I'm still looking for a room mate for Saturday night for setup, otherwise I won't be able to make it down.

man, I may not make it now to the T&T! There is a TSB on the tranny on the mustang where you get "crunchy" shifting from 1-2 and 2-3 shifts when the temp is below 40deg. I took it over last night for them to review and test the car to see if it needed the synchro's replaced. Well, in order to get a good look, they had to take the tranny apart, so now it's up on the rack w/ no tranny and it's waiting on parts from Detroit! I guess it did indeed need the new parts.

They told me 2-3 days, so we'll see. Hope like hell I can make the T&T now.

Plan to come and jump rides with others. Who knows, you may discover your "next" car. :twisted:

Thought about that. Still plan to make it down regardless if I have a car or not so Jordan can get some seat time in the mini. I won't be able to drive his car, no head room, so I may be looking for some rides.

You should be able to fit in my car now, Rodney.

Although mine is still on the lift too - but I picked up the final parts (I hope) tonight. :thumbsup:

Come on down. You can help me wear out those Kumhos.

Ditto but instead of Kumhos, insert the word Hankooks. You're welcomed to drive the S2000 a couple of runs.

BTW, anyone that wants to do a AP1 vs AP2 comparison let me know if you want to swap for a few runs. Something about a 9k redline makes me excited. :twisted:

Thanks for the offer Matt, but I physically don't fit in a s2000, ask Shultz.

Cash, thanks for the offer, may just take you up on that if I don't have a bullitt to drive. Even if I do bring the bullitt, I'll trade you a few runs so you can tell me if mine drives any different than yours.

SIGN UP NOW, only 34 preregistered. We're all going to be exhausted and out of tires by the end of the day if we don't get some more people! Judi and Mary will hate you if you don't preregister and paypal, not to mention it saves you $.
