Marcus, we have a bit of work to do. I'll be at the shop Wednesday, Thursday, and Saturday both this week and next. Shouldn't take more than two solid days to get the new engine in. Brian is going to try to be there (Cordova), and he'll be working on his car the same nights as me. If you're up for some wrenchin' we'd love the company. Are you gonna take the FWD?

ALRIGHT RACERS! We are going to make this a little more interesting...
Assuming that we get enough entrants there will be two cash awards!
$100 Goes to the street car with the quickest ET
$100 Goes to the race car with the quickest ET
Our basic defenition of a race car is any tube frame vehicle or one with an 8 point or greater roll cage. We reserve the right to make this decision based on each individual car's set-up.
Elimination runs will be held between both brackets for those that want to participate. The quickest racer/car combo will win. Cash will be given out the day of the race.

Good job Kris and Nate.

Haha! I don't know if you even weigh enough to push my clutch pedal.

Ummm.. ok. Does our ACT 2600# clutch mean I must weigh 2600#'s?
You probably weight at least 60 lbs more than me. Thats a tenth right there. Not to mention my cat like reflexes. Although I don't know if its possible to shift a DSM tranny fast.
Natedogg's new name is slick... as in oil slick.

Spy, don't bring your penis envy into this. I think that 4 dr Lumina wants to race you. He was accelerating pretty good from that stop light. Better go show him you have a bigger penis and pass him up.
