Doh 505.99 with the adjusters!

 

Looks like a slow day on the ole' Midwest forums.
Hi all!!

 

Glad to see you back to work Ben and doing your part to improve this pee poor economy of ours.

 

Did you say snow day?


Darnit, drove the stang to work so i could do the suspension work today and it freaking snows!
No salt trucks yet!

 

Not here....it's raining. Is it snowing up your way John?

 

rainy day...raniy day...drove my Mariner to work...its was a nice drive.

 

Funny you should mention that. I am actually looking into the possibility of buying a new Focus, 35 MPG sounds really good. The dealer also has an 86 GT with a stated 39,000 miles on it that was taken in as a used car trade-in. Seems kinda hard to believe, but the guy signed the affidavit on the odometer. The car looks really good for a 22 year old car. They priced it to me at $4,880.00. Would make a good non-restored entry into car shows with some cleaning.

 

John- nice to have you around!

Guys, no snow here- thunder and lightening though! Crown and Coke too!

Ben, buy that Fox! It would probably be more dependable than the Focus LOL!


My 325/40 M&H Racemasters are in Chicago and scheduled to be here tomorrow! I have an appointment at 7am Sat morning to have them mounted, then I'm heading to Muncie, IN to meet up with Brenspeed and do some drag racing! Brent just put a 3.2 pulley on one of his auto cars with cams and it made like 460 rwhp- he wants to race me heads up- not sure I wanna do it, I don't like to lose.

 

Where is the dragstrip in Muncie? I go up SR 35 to SR3 to Hartford city a bunch on the east side of the city but I have never seen any signs for the dragstrip.

 

Go auto go!!!

 

turn your speakers up: http://munciedrag.com/

Which by the way, is updated today saying that they won't be open this weekend- BUMMER!

Autos are much easier to drive, that's for sure.



Especially for you old dudes.

 

I do agree that the auto's are much easier to drive. I am surprised I don't see signs for the dragstrip since it is still east of where I go thru.

 

Whats all this crying about the track being closed ....You live in in friggin Northern Indiana !! your telling me you and Brent cant find a 1/4 mile of flat black top there ? You guys need to shoot some video of a little rural Indiana drag racing ! Brent needs a little gorilla video going on, he's getting to main stream ! Its kinda scary ! I'm afraid you will be pimpin' him in Walmart next....

 

I don't street race-



there are no timing lights LOL!

It's supposed to be 50 degrees and sunny here on Saturday- that's why I'm bummed that they're closed. Plus I got that appointment on Sat morning to get my DRs mounted- I guess I can always go practice launching somewhere.

OR, I can install these pads/rotors that have been sitting in the hallway all week.

 

Man all you guys with parts laying in different areas of the house. What do you do every night after work? I only have the Brenspeed decals that STD sent me for rear side windows to install. Just waiting for it to get above 60 degrees around here. What's is your guys issue?

 

Haley (6): jazz class, clogging class , cheerleading practice, and soon to start baton season again.

Devyn (9): basketball practice, wrestling practice, and homework.

Plus Kim works nights, so I only see her on the weekends- running the kids, dinner, etc. is on me each night. Kinda explains the necessity for Crown & Coke now, huh? Alot of my posting is done using my Sprint Mogul phone, not at the computer.



Hey Scott, don't remember if I asked you- did you change out your pads too along with rotors? Never done the pads before- trying to figure out what I need to do and what I need to do it with (as far as tools go).

Sounds like the Crown and Coke is working tonight!!!!! We have had this conversation. I bought the Centric pads from Rotorpros and I told you to go the Autozone and rent their kit for compressing the calipers...Do you want me to come up and help you??? Because I will if you ask. Remember this week? That's some good **** your drinking. I'm coming up!!!
