EYah, we noticed there's been changes made, and we tried to guess which were big cones, and which little.
An updated map would totally rock! Make me a copy or two, and I can laminate them again.
And since I"m not doing registration, but will still be there early-ish, I'm gonna try to get a look at it before it gets torn down.

Thanks, Carl!

edit - you won't be doing it solo, I volunteered in the post just before yours... Yellow_Colorz_PDT_04

Done!

I'm not sure if I will be able to make it out. My clutch has started slipping and it may not be worth the destruction of my flywheel. I'll be performing some performance tests this week to see.

Kenny, come out and drive someone else's car just for the fun of it! I'll offer mine.

I'm headed to Allen's tomorrow to grab chalk - how many bags do we need?

Also - any other supplies we need to grab before the event? Its been nearly a year since I've seen the trailer so I have no idea how well stocked (or not) we are. . .

Also (again) - Set of 4x Star Specs on the way from Tire Rack. Oh yeah. (bomp bomp) < that part is from the Yello song - duh.

That's a good enough excuse for buying car parts. "I had to get it. The cat will love the box!"

HA!! The cat does love the box !!!

Bitchin' van by the way !! I think I have some ¼ moon windows and a glitter ball that might fit that Dodge van application!

Dan, get 2 bags, 3 if you can carry them. One-ish will be enough for the event, but since you are going, we may as well get a little extra.

Adam's volunteered for supplies, so he should have you covered on the usual consumables. The Flowers' lunch service includes paper products, so we're good there. Oh, oh, I know! It's not a supply issue, but the left rear taillight on the trailer doesn't work. It would be good stuff if someone could make time to figure it out, and maybe even fix it (hopefully it's just a bulb...).

I'm on it. I'll bring a some tools; a metric cresent wrench, and a test light with me, (putting tools in bag now) but.. that doesn't mean I'll remember to do it, so remind me Sunday morning. We'll need to keep the tow vehicle connected, so to whoever the driver is, leave the trailer fully connected through the morning. Most likely a bulb, can probably get one at Wally World.

I got it going last month. We'll check again when we tow the trailer next week.

Sounds good - anyone remember how much $$$/bag?

I recall the marble dust is about $15. for a 50 lb bag, but I'm not for sure positive.

I promise you'll get reimbursed... Yellow_Colorz_PDT_02


edit: Thanks, Brian and Bill

Picked up two bags today @ $12.99ea (IIRC)

Wish I'd remembered a few trash bags to protect my trunk. . .d'oh! Its probably been at least 5yrs since I've been to Allens.

I guess I could do it for the points. Carl and Mark will just kick my arse again anyways no matter what I drive.

Thanks, Dan! I was close, but a little late, eh?

Kenny, c'mon, get your arse kicked - it'll still be fun!

Wow, what a turn out this is going to be. With 10 cars in F...and if the rain holds off, I'll be moving to B for at least this event and maybe brooksville (I know a few will be excited about that). I got a set of Kumho 710s and just gotta try them out. They are used, but WIDE, which is what I'm really wanting to try. Will be going from 245/45/17 & 275/40/18 to 295/40/17 & 315/35/18. Can't freakin' wait to see how those hook. Now if my senses can handle it and react quickly enough. Watch out Tim...I'm gunning for you this weekend. :shock:

Hey Loren, the offer is still up to codrive with me if you're interested.

There is a small chance I won't make it, depending on if I receive an item in the mail before 3/28, though. I think it will make it, but I'll be up the proverbial creek if it doesn't.

I thought that was a done deal! I'm already registered to drive your car.

If you can't make it due to your car, come anyway, we'll just drive mine. New set of Star Specs going on this week... woohoo!

Ummm...I'm seeing the BMW 135i in class H. Isn't that thing like a twin-turbo 6 cylinder?

Fighting for second place is already hard enough without throwing that monster in the mix.

Sorry guys, my bad. My first time running the E63, I usually drive the slower Impala SS (Ref: Kenny is faster), but anyhoo, the E63 is a W211 body Merc which is the 07 version of the E55. Look that up and do with me as you wish, move me, keep me where I am, it don't matter. I'm just there to thrash the sedan.

Not the '08 model I don't think. Heck, the 2010 just got a single: http://wot.motortrend.com/6597991/auto-" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; ... index.html
