You talking to me Jon??

If so... then here's MY answer...

If all goes well, I should be there out of here @ 2:30, and I can be at the track for 5:30-6:00. I think 1st run starts 6:30??

I'm hoping to get to Summit this week. Going to buy some DOT4 fluid for the brakes/clutch and maybe get pads as well. Maybe even the K&N Air Filter too.

Should be a nice turnout... can't wait. Have to talk to Ed and see if the SRT is going to be running that night as well.

Honestly guys ive never had any problems with my car. When i was tuning with dan i was shifting at 7000 and the clutch was releasing fine, i dont know why the car moves though. Ive had no problem and i think the clutch is great. Wes i would go with the FX400. If you can trust me then thats what i would get. I am not lieing when i say im haveing no problems, smooth clean shifts at all rpm ranges.

Also cant wait til tomorrow, i finally think i got my knock problem found. Dan the spark plugs should be in tomorrow, we might have to put them in at the track tomorrow. I finally think im gonna run 13's.

Wes, Brian (brk_05) and Josh --

How does meeting right off of Forbes, near the Law school? Coupla lots there, and we can head to the Parkway and Turnpike.

4:30 on the dot?

Should leave us plenty of time.

You'll be in Oakland? Or wanna meet in Irwin? We're gonna hop onto TP at Monroeville, then get off Irwin exit to work our way to 66. Avoid the mess on 22.

22 isn't all that bad... I think you waste more time going TP to 66. I'll be in Shadyside... that's where I work.

I can meet you guys a little further out, like Murrysville or Monroeville. I could just stay after work since I work in Oakland, but I want to have my car with me. I'm just spectating again. I'm STILL wiped out a little from Sunday.

Ah, screw it.

Wes and Brian (brk_05). Let's plan on meeting near Panera in Oakland; off of Forbes, near Pitt's Law school, about 4:30. Dan, do you want to meet there at that time, too? Freak can't go.

Alicia, we'll meet you by Panera in Monroeville at, say, 5pm? That work? Then we can just go up 22. Should give me plenty of time to rip out my seats in the tech line haha.

**** SLIGHT CHANGE IN PLANS****

Just location.

Anyone who'd like to, we're meeting in the parking-lot of the Panera / Holiday Inn in Oakland, that's a couple blocks down from Forbes. You all know where that is?

4:30 sharp.

From there we'll hop on the parkway, fight a lil traffic, then pick Alicia up at the Panera in Monroeville. Then we can discuss going all the way up 22, or heading turpike --> Irwin --> 66 --> 22.

Sound good to everyone?

Sounds good to me. I went up 22 last time, there was just a minor delay past Sheetz where the construction starts, nothing too Earth-shattering. If I have to work late, I'll send Dan a TXT message and let him know I won't make it in time to meet you guys.

Hmmm... going through Oakland will tie me up pretty bad. I can usually get from Penn Ave through Wilkinsburg to the parkway pretty fast. I might just do that. I have to go 22 anyway cause Kate is meeing me on 22 in Murrysville... but as Alicia said, it only backs up around Watson Chevy.

Why don'tcha meet w/ Alicia in Monroeville, and we'll catch y'all there?

We'll be heading out from Oakland around 4:30, so figuring meeting @ 5 or so?

We'll discuss the drive tomorrow. I think I might go straight through rather than try to meet in Monroeville.

Wow I just got home, go to bed. Jon, I think I may just hang out in Monroeville with Alicia and maybe Dan. Going to Oakland and then getting back on to Monroeville would just be a waste for me.

I got back from Cleveland @ 1:20AM... back in bed, and back on the road for 6AM...

Ed is still on Cleveland. He called me @ midnight and said the car is all whacked... the A/F ratios are all screwy and the intercooler temps are way high. Couldn't get about 340HP on the dyno. They might ahve to put a bigger intercooler in it. He already upgraded, but now it needs more.

He's all po'd since he got drag radials for tonight, and was pumped about getting it out there.

I'll still coming as long as I can stay awake. I am 99.9% sure I'm running.

See you there @ 6

See u there...I'll be managing Jon's, Wes's, Dan's, and Luigi's dan.Spec cars lol. And I took the jump into speed density tuning my car...so that will tie up like 2-3 days lol. In the end tho it should pay big dividends

Dan
