LOL. Fair enough.

So who is down for a Cobalt airsoft day? A 40min game is roughly $25-32.

The best time is a tuesday or wednesday evening/night. Those days we should be able to have a private game. Sunday also works well. The aim is for 20 people.

I must say that the video of JP worrying about his rockstar on the highway is about the funniest video i've seen. Also pretty funny was Matt freaking out when the announcer called Jeffs cobalt not supercharged when it is.

Good CD Tdot.

I thought the video that you called "flashing" was on the ride home when the girls were flashing us and you took a video LOL. Edit: nevermind, you missed that, you ditched us.

apparently all i missed out on was losing my lunch, lol. yeah, got a call from my aunt and had to split asap to meet her for dinner, was sad I had to miss the tom-foolery on the way home

PS, can anyone email me the files from the CD? this email can handle the love:
courtney(at)thoughtspot.ca

Or if anyone knows how to FTP, I can give you a login to use. I wanna see the swerving (yay! I spelled it right! where is my grammar prize? )

I think it would be interesting to take a shot for every shot made, that would be interesting.

I dunno man, that sucks. Mike, Rob and Dale are really nice guys when I go in there. Sounds really f-ed up. I hope it works out in the end. You seem to have the worst luck with dealers....sorry to hear that.

I do but Jeff has a really good setup for adding a sub and amp, he'd be better to ask.

For everyone that is looking for a copy of the CD. I'm planning on making it all up into a video and posting it on the internet. You can't see the times on any of these, so if anyone wants their times put up, post here, or PM me your run times (in order they happened, plz) and I'll try to fit them into the video as best I can.

As for the order, I guess go by the time stamped on the top. I think I am missing one though...

Hey Maj, for the video, what do you think about having no music? I like hearing the announcer and the car noises, tee hee!

And Dayne, havn't seen you in such a long time, it was great to see the mythical Dayne is indeed alive! Check your PMs....

Also:
Service Manuals
So, Juan and I were talking and we think alot of us would benefit from having the following:

If anyone is interested, let us know and then we can all purchase it together and the guy who pays the most can keep it, the rest of us can get copies. Interested?

one thing and only thing i liked about having it . . . it had a flashy blue light that would flicker off beat so it looked like an alarm but it was really just the command start antenna .

I talked in depth with them today about this and other things. I got some good answers. Apparently when they started installing them, the remote starter security-bypass modules were from an american company and not cold-weather tested (canadian cold, i mean) and the resistors in the module shrunk and gave different voltages, causing the cars PCM to think it was being stolen, so it would initiate an alarm. They changed the voltages manually to make it work in colder weather. Luckily since then, they have upgraded to a more automatic module that learns voltages with the car, and does not need manual adjustments for cold weather. They stand by their technician who installs them, and they say the new modules accept updates from the internet much like our PCMs can, for any future issues.

That being said, is anyone interested in getting this in the fall? If we get a group, they will waive some "extras" like trunk release thingys etc.

Nice 60ft, but **** that trap speed is low. You just have to figure out how to get the thing to trap 100+ and you've got yourself a 13.xx

I haven't had the time to go through all of Tamara's videos, if I'm awake enough tonight after work (midnight) then I'll probably start on the video. If not I'll get it done tomorrow.

Yeah, I fully intended already on doing this video with the comentary. You can really hear what the announcer guy is saying this time around, so it's pretty awesome without music. Also, it's not stupidly loud cause there are almost no dragster style muscle cars.

Damnit.. now that this deal has come up, I don't know if I should get myself an exhaust or if I'll go with this starter.. I know the starter will be more useful this winter... hmm....

Yeah you pulled a great time man! It looks like you and I were .3 apart the whole way on our runs right from your 2.1 and my 2.4 60'. So that means with your setup that has more power than me (with your smaller pulley), you have some room for more speed. Looks like with a tune from Wes, you should be able to make use of the extra boost in 2nd and 3rd and pull a much faster trap speed

So I talked to some people about the SRT motor swap and it could be done, but with alot of work. Im still deciding if it would be worth it.

Pavel: SRT swap into an SS????
