  1. points to self points to self's eyes points to Philly SCCA timing equipment Tom, i don't have to eb faster than you. I can be faster then everyone by simply exercising fear
  2. Dave, what roads did u travel? google maps didn't have any listing Badlands, PA, NJ or NY.
  3. duct tape, velcro, a driving suit, and roll bar padding. :ack:
  4. i would hate to think how many wives i would have then...
  5. http://community.webshots.com/album/562935828kQtnAL?vhost=community should get to the folder with the pics
  6. the corral went well. LEO had 1 Exige, 2 Elises, 3 Espirit, one of each of teh engine variants iirc, 1 Europa, 1 Elan M100, 1 original Elan, and Al's 7. I shoudl have some pics up later. hopefully some video of Al going cone and cab dodging in Orange on the trip downtown.
  7. how many plates of ribs and beers that is! 2.0 is where its at!
  8. no no. someone by me is. http://autox4u.com/autox4uforum/showthread.php?tid=32 if he still has them in June, he can bring them down to DC when he's at teh proSolo event.
  9. haven't seen it in the last oil change. if engine go boom then get a boom boom engine!
  10. hey Mazda, do u want a set of C5 5 spokes? i got a buy by me selling a set for $200.
  11. i thought it was 3.8L. i'll check the book when i get home. Yeah, dipstick broke last fall with me. luckily it broke right at the FULL mark, so its not a total replacement, i just add a few mL to bring it back too slighly over every once in a while. like, weekly AutoXs. which u should do! :jonautox:
  12. a more durable watchband would be my suggestion. maybe if he could find asupplier for metal bands.
  13. i can see big red X s as brake lights in ur future. just like Family Fued. pressure sensitive switch, so 1, 2 or 3 red Xs go on! :7head:
  14. maybe find a saab owner for the current intercooler if its a problem. I think a 2nd design could be a larger core(+50%) and have teh endtanks on teh right and left. the tank on teh passengerside for exiting air shoudl be at the top so u can run piping along the top of radiator if possible, or in between teh engine and radiator. i don't remember how much clearance there was in an ultralite around teh radiator.
  15. has that intercooler setup been tried before? it looks like the endtanks are going to impede a lot of air circulation to the radiator.
  16. could always use the vermont method of paying their state legislature....DON'T. Congress sould get into DC, quickly get teh business done and go home to their real jobs.

  18. hal, were u using the Ford ECU or going to a standalone unit? when the ECU was ripped out in NC last summer my car died on the spot, but i feel that it may be due to the ciruit being ripped instead of seeing a failing O2 sensor. it won't harm teh engine in either regard. I expect that with teh Ford ECU u will be in either limp mode or the engine just won't power teh ignition.
  19. i pretty much feel the same way, and I don't have a firearm. Its a right i don't have to excercise. I may in the future, and I'm glad that its my choice. I do beleive that a licencing procedure is preferable in most areas where a gun is not neccessary.
  20. :rofl: quiet exhaust, talk to Norm beaver i keep my car quiet with a catalytic converter.
  21. teh ra1 and r888 are still Rcomps, and so track orientated. beacause our cars are so light and used seldomly in the wet, those tyres are frequently used as daily drivers. in teh rain, and real rain, not just wet pavement, i would chose not to be on those tyres driing around town. for a daliy driver tyre that can handle rain, and pass the DOT's 140 treadwear rating, 15" Bridgestone Potenza RE01R (i have), Toto R1R, or the new Dunlop Direzza z1 star spec would be fine choices.
  22. i would expect teh hoosier a6 then r6. possible the kumho v710.
  23. sounds good. i actually have off that weekend. so i'll swing by.
  24. my speedo/odo is not working. not sure if it will be this year. i think Tom G falls into this catagory as well. i think there may be a lack of particpants due to mechanical issues LOL
  25. Gert has a good write up on how make ur own LED bar. looks like a lightsaber from star wars. its over on CCC iirc.
