Sorta like that around here too. I see way more camaros than mustangs. It was like that at the car show this past weekend. So bad people were calling it "camaro craft" in stead of car craft.


Changed the oil in the notch tonight and started her up. She was kinda iffy on the idle but I think it's probably because it's still the same gas I put in last fall. Drove her up and down the driveway a couple times and put her away. Revving her is so weird compared to the GT. When I rev the GT it's like VROOOOOM. For the notch it's like VROOOOOM.

You need to get it out and drive it. Let it get up to full operating temp and open her up. You also need to use up that fuel.

Drain it. Next year add a bottle of Sta-Bil before you store it.

Do the old syphon with a garden hose and suck it out.

Be sure you spit and don't swallow.

Went to the speedway day at mustang week today. Was really fun, met a few people from BMC, got a couple shirts. There was oval track and autocross racing. It was bloody hot for a while, thank god for tents, and then it poured down rain, again, thank god for tents. A little while after it stopped some guy whipped the end around on his cobra and smacked the inside wall pretty good. There were several power slides on the autocross course, and I freakin fell in love with a gray 5.0 with the brembo package. That car just looked sexy as hell being thrown around the course. Burnout competition was extra cool, and I have video, but I'll put that up tomorrow. Leaving the track I did a powerslide left turn that may well be up on the youtube in the next couple weeks, it was right pretty!

Regan had to take two giant bags to school everyday. The middle school here doesn't allow lockers.

Their reasoning is that kids were late to class and the drug dogs were overworked.

There's no lockers at any schools around here except gym lockers. The schools consist of multiple buildings on large campuses, with 3-5 minutes between classes. Is it like that in texas too?

Yup. I think she had 3 minutes.

I don't see how its physically possible.

I guess if a teacher tried to keep me late I'd say tough **** *****, I gotta go.

That's what you gotta do. Or get 'em to sign you a pass so you're not counted tardy for the next class. I get 5 minutes between classes, and the way my schedule worked last year, in all but 1 class change, I needed 4 of the 5 to get where I was going. And that's without stopping to talk to anyone.

My backpack is at least 30lbs. It sucks. Especially when I add my laptop to that.

Try 15 minutes to go a mile with 30lbs strapped to your back. In snow and ice.

I got to agree with Gary on this one. It does sound like a ball joint went out on it.

The Synergy Green looks awesome. I love it.
