We always have a good time! Especially when you throw alcohol and BE into the mix! 
Not worth bashing his stupidity. By him not responding to me, I think he feels like a d-bag.
+1 Brian, tools are always cool.
KR.. saw most of it, mainly for the car. Story was mehh..
Correct! It was some photobooth program on one of the demo iMacs.
Some random pics from today...
Morning root beer floats at Ricky & Ronnie's!
Luis at TacoBill's Detail Shop
Luis testing out a new mod.. can you spot it?
Action shots of superfly's GT/CS!
(check out that blackout panel!)
superfly the Model!
(.. Kai actually did the modeling (thank goodness); pics being edited by Jed)

Yah... thankfully we had supermodel kai there. The shoot was a blast Can't wait to see the pics. Today turned out great: Detail (after getting egged 
) , photoshoot, and Italian food, and I just got back from bowling. So opnions on the mod?
I'm on the fence.

That's why we changed Luis' role from Model to light reflector duties. 
Tom's back! 
#1 question from everyone here in POTR.. how's the turbo?

Fine!
It's working great... just need to get it re-dyno'd with the tuner. He's doing all of that for free (along with a new custom tune if it needs tweaking from the one he emailed me). I'm in no rush... so whenever he can set it up is fine.
I need to order those front inserts to take the eye away from the intercooler looking a hair crooked. It's not, but something makes the eye think it is. The inserts should fix that.

I still want to put "Turbocharged" emblems under the GT. Which one?
5 5/8" x 1/2"
7 3/4" x 1/4"
1/4" doesn't seem very wide
I'm also getting Speed of Sound gauges for the A-Pillar. Just 2... and I'm putting in my Vacuum/Boost gauge and a Water Temp gauge. All I really need is the Boost gauge to monitor that in case a hose blows off somewhere and boost starts to get out of control. The only reason I'm putting a Water Temp gauge is because the exhaust pipe coming up to the turbo does get close to the fan. In case the fan stops working (I doubt it will)... but I would want to know about it before the cheesy factory gauge starts to move. Air/Fuel won't change and I can check that periodically with the Predator anyway.

SoCal Crew- Looks like everyone had a great time, Cool pics
Tom- Glad to see you back on line! Dont let the mouse overwork you
Boy, I thought Knight rider was horrible, I mean the gt500kr looked nice but I guess it didn't have enough HP to get away from a Ford Edge in the chase scenes

Hey TacoBill this is what it looks like when you hit a tire tread at 75mph on the 105 freeway( In my old 03 cobra)

Glad I missed Knight Rider. It would have been cooler if the GT500KR was indeed a KR, but it's just a whippled GT with the Shelby facias... meh

Are you planning on putting the emblem on top or under the GT?
At first I was thinking under (for me), but won't it read funny saying 'GT SUPERCHARGED'?
What a goober.
Ouch! $6k in damages, right? Incredible.
Here's some 'behind the scene' pics from the photoshoot.
(Brian, these should be SFW.. nothing too crazy, except for Jed's Chinese makeshift hat.)

I've seen that Cobra wreck a couple of times, kills me everytime I see it. Goober is an understatement.
SFW pics. Thanks. My work TMS browsing thanks you.
Speaking of beautiful So Cal.... What about the forecast for this week.... Rain Fri, Sat, Sun
...
I'll wait until Thursday or Friday before I call it for the following weekend.
