Thats right by you huh?... Yeah i'm thinking of checking it out. I don't want to go on a cage tho heheheee.... Yeah if you go on a car they call it "cage"

o6spdracer · 08-03-2009, 03:35 PM

Yeah...pretty close. I was thinking about going. But it would be too tempting! There have been some really good deals lately!

masagsxr · 08-03-2009, 04:48 PM

Do it... Then let's hit the canyons

I'd have to hide my bike at your garage tho hahahaaa

randomxzero · 08-03-2009, 04:59 PM

masagsxr · 08-03-2009, 05:02 PM

Yeah on a bike so you better get out of the road while we're up there taring it up

randomxzero · 08-03-2009, 05:09 PM

imma be in front of you guys so you are forced to go the speed limit

deucegirl03 · 08-03-2009, 09:28 PM

^ oh god i ****ing hate it when people do that! mountain law: bikers have right of way (that's why i run at night), and slow traffic yields to faster traffic!
oh i can't wait till i can run canyons again! so close...just a few more weeks..

datguydeni · 08-04-2009, 12:18 AM

anyone going to the SFV meet, mr2oc is having??

o6spdracer · 08-04-2009, 01:03 AM

Haha. I totally would. But we are saving for a house! Man growing up sucks.

o6spdracer · 08-04-2009, 01:05 AM

Ohh and feel free to hide your bike at my place anytime! hahaha

Davis · 08-04-2009, 12:43 PM

So I was looking at some Kumho Victoracer V700s in 195/55R14 and 205/55R14. I don't think I'll run in stock class just yet. It's to expensive for me.

It came out to around $750 shipped for those 4 tires, heat cycled and shaved. Yikes.

Meh, I'll go buy some bigger wheels so I can fit some fatter tires, hopefully I'll become a bit more competitive with those Miatas!

Mark_Dorman · 08-04-2009, 01:59 PM

Man Ji...you know if Mixxer and I get bikes you're not gonna be able to resist. Maybe I'll buy my brother one and you can use it

...

I would try and make the OC meet but my car will probably be out of commission. Plus I want to focus on getting Ren's cars working too...

o6spdracer · 08-04-2009, 02:22 PM

hahaha...probably not you jerks! I'm not so comfortable riding other peoples bikes (maybe move it for them). Plus, I'd want to 'tune' it. hahaha.

haha i hate those people too, your stuck behind them until you get to the end because they dont want to let you pass

damn a few more weeks for the SW or the AW?

deucegirl03 · 08-04-2009, 03:35 PM

the SW is getting picked up on the 16th, but i am hoping to have it running by this weekend. i am putting the motor back together as we speak, should have the long block together by tomorrow night. i was hoping to have it together by now, but i ran into the usual unexpected snags. plus i am being really paranoid about this build and taking my sweet time, since i want to make sure this kid has no problems driving her around. i want to make sure he gets a good car!
so basically after the 16th i can focus all my attention on the AW. i am hoping to have it running by the weekend of the 22nd! it will depend on how soon i get parts, as i won't be able to order any till i get paid for the SW. I CAN'T WAIT!!!!

randomxzero · 08-04-2009, 03:44 PM

thats pretty sweet..
so your gonna have fun with her before she goes?

Davis · 08-04-2009, 03:47 PM

Aw Ren, that's awesome of you.

I would do the same thing to make sure the new owner has a great experience with their newly bought car.

randomxzero · 08-04-2009, 03:50 PM

only if all people that are/or selling their cars were like that...

deucegirl03 · 08-04-2009, 04:00 PM

oh thanks guys! i know i wish there were more honest mechanics in the world...but hey maybe that will help get my name out there...
Alex i may play with her a bit

my main concern is any drivability issues that may come up, i would like to drive the car around for a few days before he drives her up to Oregon. this way i can deal with anything that may come up right after she starts, not him...plus i'd like to change the oil w/in a few days of the start up cuz i would like to drain out any lil pieces of silicone or cleaning detergents that may still be floating around inside..

Davis · 08-04-2009, 04:23 PM

parting out 93 camry

Who wants to help me pull?
