Some say the “That Guy” trophy still exists, waiting to haunt its next victim...

Maybe I'll get my son to make a paper hat thing(itll look horrible but that's what we want, right?)for ftd for fun runs.

Group photo is a great idea for the last Brooksville event!
Also a sticker for STD :smack: :moon: .... I might have a vested interest, I’m bringing out the special vehicle (no, not that one) for the afternoon, just saying!
Hope fully ur not the only one with a special ride in the afternoon

I'm stressed as usual, but more. Until event day, and we're at least half way through the first run group and on-schedule... I'm going 6 directions at once trying to stay on top of things. :derp:

Once the plan is in motion, then it's an easy stroll! :walk:

A little late I know, but... anyone have any co-drives open in the afternoon? My car is running ( yes ) but the "new" throw out bearing I bought sounds like trash and frankly I don't trust the car to make it to brooksville ( that and the exhaust leak may kill me ). Will pay top dollar!

Stop buying that NAPA crap.

It's better than autozone at least.

What are we talking here? Farm Truck. Easter is a good time for "redemption".

I just got the clutch pedal assy replaced on the Rex. It's slicker than a Miata on STP. You'll have to put the old RS4 race tires on the Vic back on it or run on WD Conti's. Will it survive for my family to drive it in two weeks on their vacation in FL when you are done with it?

I'll be at home that event. A slacker. The Rx will be a suppository if you fuck it up again. The Vette requires a $15k deposit. I hear they are doing 8 runs. ON CONCRETE!!

If there’s anything extra I’m able to help out with let me know. I’ll be there all day.

It seems for simple stuff, aftermarket is fine. Once bearings get involved things get interesting.

Have you ever regretted saying or writing something before you even say or write it? I'm feeling that way for so many reasons right now. Philip, it would be an honor to have you drive my "car" in the afternoon. I should note a couple things in advance though. 1. I sold the Jaguar 2. My new car isn't exactly a "car". 3. Your enthusiastic and frankly terrifying style of driving might be a flip risk. That said, have at it! And PLEASE try not to flip it on the shiny side. I'm only on my 2nd tank of gas.

Sounds great! But how much of a rollover risk is it? Fiesta bad or Mirage/Fiat 500 bad?
