  1. Dang, slngsht, a trike-driving administrator . . . and I never knew about the Miata-hairdresser thing! :jester: Judging from the the build thread, no corners cut on that one. :cheers:
  2. Glad to know I'm not the only one keeping Roger in business.
  3. Tach and Speedo inop Circuit breaker tripped: check for a short on the powered-side of the breaker. Breaker not tripped, check the ground.
  4. An Austin-Healy . . . . I learn something new every day.
  5. Mondo, Great shots. What engine is in the Griffith and do you know the year model?
  6. So is this the official 'Bass Masters' vehicle?
  7. Mike, I did a track day at MSR Cresson on March 22. The wife (and kids) were with me . . . . It was our 16th wedding anniversy.
  8. m3dragon, Welcome to the forum. :cheers:
  9. Well, mowing in a straight line just went out the window.
  10. Dave, Not sure is you'll find your answer in this article, but just may be worth a read (something might jump off the page): http://www.popularhotrodding.com/tech/0604_rear_suspension_guide/ Also, a couple of questions; do you have a limited slip diff, open diff, etc., and, are you spinning the tire/tires during shifting? . . . . . :cheers:
  11. Skip, Welcome aboard! :seeya: I was going to suggest Manshoon11, but he has already chimed in. I can't help with the CA registration, but I am a Stalker owner and will be more than willing to help in other Stalker-related areas if you pull the trigger on the 05. Also, FWIW, Dennis Brunton sold Brunton Auto to the Minehearts (Scott Mineheart and Glen Mineheart). Scott is the son and Glen is the dad. Contact numbers coming to you via pm. :cheers:
  12. Never seen one? . . . . . I'd never even heard of one! Yep, very clever. :iagree: There was also a great looking Porsche running back and forth across the same stretch of Mulholland with the i8. I just looked it up; a 50th anniversary 911. Here's a photo I took: :cheers:
  13. Dan, I think that was replaced somewhere along the way with "The race belongs to the guy with the cubic bucks." Speaking of cubic bucks, spotted this on Mulholland Friday; BMW i8. :svengo:
  14. :dupe: . . . . . . :cheers:
  15. Dan, When I bought back my Stalker, I decided to clean up/rewire the electrical system . . . just so you know you aren't alone: http://www471.pair.com/stalkerv/gallery2/main.php?g2_itemId=23485 http://www471.pair.com/stalkerv/gallery2/main.php?g2_itemId=21191 Sorry I couldn't make Mojave today. :cheers:

    Dan, I don't know if we can make it up there tomorrow, but I'll get back to you later today to confirm . . . . your invitation is really hard to say 'no' to. I''l send you a pm with yea or nay. Shane
  18. Karl, At NJMP in July, we could each carry a barrel around lightning each day during each session. This would even out lap times and provide an abundance of 'aged' inventory for quick resale. Fast, upfront profits means you get to keep the Cat! Win, win! Of course, the product will need sampling at the end of each day.

    Just had lunch with Manshoon11 at Hennesey's; nope, no Vipers in the parking, but right next to Hermosa Pier and a great ocean view. Tomorrow, we'll take dvl's advise and try the Rock Store for lunch. Who know's, maybe we'll see Jay. Manshoon11, I'm now on the 405, headed north, staying out of your way.

    Going to be in the Los Angeles area for a couple of days (flight crew layover). We'll have most of Thursday (tomorrow) / Thursday evening and Friday free. Suggestions on what to do while there. :cheers:

  24. Lucky, I took the photo at the convenience store just outside the main entry to MSR Cresson. During my last track day, I went in to pay for gas and the car was gone; either leaking oil or needing to be driven. Or maybe the owner needed a fix. :cheers:
  25. Steve, Those two look great together . . . . tell the wife see can drive it . . . . . . . every now and then.
