I'm bored.

I was thinking of installing my rear camber and toe arms. Anyone doing anything more interesting?

Just springs or full suspension?

We can work on it at my place, I've got nothing better to do. Sounds like an impropmtu tech session if you ask me.

My crib.

My cell 245-6241.

Hey Chris they have all the necessary tools out at the hobby shop to do springs, right? If so I will be going out there today. My wife has a chiropractor appointment at 12:30 so I don't know how long it will be. I'm going to give out my cell if any of you guys want to work on the cars today that way you guys can call me(it's only going to be up here for a few hours): ********

Springs are pretty easy. I'm going to start on my camber and toe arms at my house if anyone wants to swing by.

Headers and cats... damn. That's going to be a rough tech session. I'll be looking forward to it.

Ty, maybe you can come on base with us. Either me or Mike can sign you in. That way, we'll have everything done at one place - assuming they have stall space. The place closes at 1700, clean up starts at 1630.

Oh there's a whole bunch more than that. Especially if I keep ordering new parts . Here's the list...

Install headers
Replace cats w/test pipes
Custom intake
Custom rear diffuser
Custom front diffuser
Custom brake ducts (maybe)
Change front studs
Change ALL fluids
Remove roll bar for powdercoating
Gut interior
Re-install roll bar
Install Fire suppression system
Install OBDII Video Data Logging system
Install Hot Lap Timer

And I am sure that there will be other stuff that pops up along the way. .

Holy crap that's a lot of wholesome goodness. Are you going to get digital gauges, detachable steering wheel, 2 way comm system, etc.? How about a pit crew? I can change wheels, refuel, clean your windshield, & give you Gatorade.

It's totally up to you guys I'm free for whatever. If Ty wants to give out directions we can go over and help him with his stuff that way we don't have to worry about paying or a time limit. I'll bring the beer!

Ty gave out directions to his place as well as his home phone. I'll hit him up later, since I'll be doing pretty much nothing on Veteran's Day.

Digital gauges - For a/f ratio and oil temp, yes but not yet. And eventually a boost gauge.

Detacable Steering Wheel - Not detachable, but I have a hub and a MOMO wheel in my garage right now. I don't want to install that myself because of the airbag though.

2 way comm system - Maybe...

Pit crew - Only if I can pay them with rides around the track.

Here's the directions again.

My crib.

And don't forget a push button starter.

You might as well "pay your pit crew with milk and Oreo cookies" (50 points to whoever can name the movie that line was said and who said it. An extra 50 points for naming the car that character drove.)

Didn't Memphis say that at the go-cart track?

^^^No it was the other guy that came to visit him at the go-cart track. Sorry Ensmuns, I read the question too fast and thought I was supposed to name the main charachters car, not the guy who said the quote...

Wasn't it a Cadillac?
