had a great time at the track.. dialed a 13.8 and ran a 13.8 lol.... had a .04 reaction time

 

Possibly a salesman I know at Hall Chevy.
Straight swap?

Nice! That's how you win races.

 

Might of found some tires. I really don't want to lose them, but I wouldn't ask money for my worn Invo's.

I have a $25 floor jack for $10 if anyone needs it, bought it for oil changes @ my old apartment and don't want to take it with me.

Koenreich, should've contacted your insurance company and refused to take the keys. If the jobs not done right, don't accept it.

 

how many miles did you get out of the invo's..??

 

Good question, 10,000 or so? Not dead yet, first wear bar. Honestly thinking about keeping and tossing them back on next summer. I've put it to them .

I'm going to pick up tires tomorrow as of now, so good, I'm keeping my babies .

 

not bad I guess, I don't recall how many miles I got from them....wish I did.
They are expensive though....that I do remember.

 

Joe, I didn't receive my keys until after the paperwork was done. The mirror just didn't catch my eye at first and I was inspecting the passanger side for cosmetic defects. Other than the mirror the passanger side was fine. All the over spray was on the drivers side, which I did not feel until I was home.

I did call both Elite Auto Body and the insurance company after 2 minutes of driving and they both said "Dont worry we warranty the work for life."

I'm more upset with the fact I'll be back in a rental after less than a day. If I'm told it's done, I want it to be DONE. You're right though, I should have looked the car over better before leaving with it. I guess I was so caught up with the excitement of getting it back.

 

No doubt, I used to work @ a very reputable shop and we'd do the second hand work. Customers would be anxious, accept the car, then realize a minute later how crappy the work was and we'd end up correcting it.

 

It sucks that it happens like that. I'll definitly be a lot more picky about the work the next time they say it's "done".

 

So, no swap then?

 

umm unfortunately i lost that race... bracket racing sucks at times... i lsot to a cutlass supreme.. like a 1995... WASNT A FACOTR OF SPEED.. HER MANAGED TO GET JUST 2 THOUSANDTHS closer to his dial time than me

 

That's the best part about bracket racing. Somebody could have a 800 hp car. If they don't know how to drive it they will get beat by the Geo Metro.

 

im lookin at the schedule to see if there is any more bracket.. but i think im done till next season theyonly have it wednesdays and i go back next tuesday

there is 2 more events at another strip not too far in the other direction of my house.. test and tune today and another racing series tomorrow.. ill use today as my practice and tomorrow ill race.. that makes me happy

 

Been there and done that
Had a buddy with a volvo station wagon walk away with 5g's at MIR.

 

thats insane lol.... volvo was consistent in his times...

 

Saw you today Zrated. I was in the civic behind ya on Todds Lane. ^_- your car is LOUD

 

had a grreat time test and tune bout 40 miles south of my house.. worst strip ive ever been on.. best time was a 13.9 it ws soo bumpy not smooth at all... but i beat alotta cars i didnt lose once.. cobalt SS S/C and
T/C Mustang GTs.. and a brand new challenger R/T!! with the 6-speed.. i dunno how i beat a challenger

 

Umm, let me guess. You crossed the finish line first.

In other news, I have discovered why turning 30 is way better than 16, 18, 21, and 25. It's called Dirty Thirty for a reason. The answer is so classic that the Ancient Romans knew it. In Roman Numerals 30 = XXX.

 

whats goin on for tonight? anyone rollin out?
