We are just quicker that you now. HEHEHE
Bakushan 07-31-2006, 11:01 AM Not by those track times! LOL
j/k
SlimShady 07-31-2006, 11:05 AM *Warning* We got an outside hater *Warning*
Well at least i drove down there and ran about 10 times and drove back on half a tank of gas. muhahaha
Bakushan 07-31-2006, 02:18 PM Ok everyone, tonight is the big night!
It's less than 7 hours until the big meet. Here is some last minute information for you guys!
THE WEATHER: Today: A mix of clouds and sun. High around 100F. Winds S at 10 to 20 mph.
DISCOUNTS: 10% Off total food bill, $2 Drafts from the bar
ENTERTAINMENT: Live DJ on the back lot, Live Music on the Stage
[b]PROJECTED TURNOUT: 250 Cars+ as we adjust to the new location
BEST WAY TO GET THERE: In my opinion, the best way to get to the new meet is to travel on the North Dallas Tollway, North just past 121 to GAYLORD Parkway. Follow the road right to preston past the baseball park and hotel. When you get to Preston, make a right, and you will see Cruisers on the left, with BRIGHT RED NEON all around the sides. The parking for US is on the RIGHT SIDE and directly behind the resturant.
Private entrance to the resturant will be open from the back lot, directly into the RKC ROOM and Elevated viewing area for the meet.
We hope that you all can make it out, and have a safe and fun time! Private uniformed security and local police will be onhand to make sure we all have a good time safely at this legally sanctioned event.
Thanks for sticking with me!

At this point, my battery died so we went inside and ate food. Came back out and was able to grab a few more pics after the meet was over.

eazyrider_tim 08-03-2006, 10:12 AM Wow, some more nice pictures, I have to make it to the next one. I clay bar'd and waxed yesterday, looks brand new!
captcomputer 08-03-2006, 02:19 PM I just bought a claybar and wax kit and some micro fiber cloths and some Auminum wheel cleaner. So hopefully I'll get a chance to clean it up real pretty like.

SlimShady 08-03-2006, 10:47 PM will u be tuned then?
VenomRogue 08-04-2006, 01:15 AM Originally posted by SlimShady

probably not, need to find a job first.
[rolleyes]
eazyrider_tim 08-04-2006, 08:41 AM The tint I have is 15%, and I have never had a police officer mention it at all even after being pulled over for something else. I would not got darker than 15% though.
If you crack your windows they bleed light thru both ways, so they look lighter when cracked a bit. And of course, whenever you get pulled over, make sure you just let your windows, all of them down before the officer even gets out his car. Thats when they get mad/nervous when they can't see in and think you might have something going on.
I used to go with 5% all around, but I used to have them mention my tint was too dark. But without a light meter or nothing, there is nothing they can do. I just got tired of having to let me window down to make a left hand turn so I could see the median, lol
SlimShady 08-04-2006, 10:49 AM have you had to go and get inspection yet?

notice the lack of ANY stickers in my windsheild [thumb]
[paranoid]
fallacious_focus 08-04-2006, 11:52 AM you ought to get the euro front and order the longer style german number plates. i found a site that would stamp anything that you wanted. just a thought... [dunno]

I am considering the euro front (and rear for that matter)
but Im keeping the plates, tehy are actually legal, and if i get that stamped stuff, they arent legal plates.
fallacious_focus 08-06-2006, 09:05 AM actually they technically are. they are actually stamped, prison style, and from what i can tell there is no difference between them and the real ones. are there any carzy things like hologram stickers or the like on your plates?

yes, 2 stickers.
I would rather stick with the legal plates, than have some fake ones made up and claim they are real.
fallacious_focus 08-06-2006, 04:03 PM yah, thats probably for the best. but the long plates would still look so cool.
also, let me know when you change out your headers. if you are going to sell the focussport header ill def buy it if the price is right.
eazyrider_tim 08-07-2006, 12:41 PM Not until 07. But my wife has, and she has the same % tint. They didn't even ask.

Make me an offer...it will be the header and flex pipe...

Did they even test it?
eazyrider_tim 08-08-2006, 07:35 AM Nope, didn't or test.
Dragwn 08-08-2006, 09:06 AM I hope everyone made it home ok...cause I went home on a wrecker. [?|] Major problemo...a mount that looks like part of an engine or tranny case sheared itself and snapped into pieces under the motor twoards the back in the middle.
It is awaiting prognosis at Middlekauf ford in Plano..I think I got home around 2:30am...too bloody tired to remember. I have a couple pics I took with my phone, but nowhere to put em to post right now. I can email the one pic I have on my work pc.
I wish it was because I actually had enough HP to cause this [mad] [?|] [?|] [?|] [?|]
fallacious_focus 08-09-2006, 08:09 AM damn, that really sucks. happened to me about a couple of months ago, except my car decided to eat a curb. mmmm, yummy concrete is what it thought till it got all torn up.
eazyrider_tim 08-09-2006, 12:16 PM ouch man, I thought you were the one that traded in for a Cobalt though?
Dragwn 08-09-2006, 01:55 PM Hey Tim..makin insults like that will get your valve cores removed..[joke]Who is spreadin lies like that anyway?? [chair] [spank]
Dragwn 08-14-2006, 10:17 AM The warranty company, their "inspector" and the mechanic who looked at my hatch said I must have been racing it and been dumping the clutch over and over (basically they say I can't drive a standard). So here's the list of what I need:
Transmission Mount
Transmission Case and/or a new Transmission
Shift Cable
also my floorpan is dented in so I was told.
Makes me wonder about keeping my focus this morning.

[:)][:)][:)][:)] that, make them PROVE you were racing or whatever, they have the burden of proof, and just because they dont wanna fork over 3800 for a new tranny (thats what mine cost, and my warranty company replaced it without even sending a inspector over) doesnt mean you are out of options. Give them hell about it, you only had an intake and exhaust, right? They REALLY expect you to race your focus with only that?
Again, make them PROVE any allegations. BTW, was it you that called me this morning? the voicemail was all broken up and couldnt hear it very well.
Brian.
SlimShady 08-14-2006, 08:30 PM ^^ agree. They always say that "this has been racing" when they really cant prove anything. GIVEM HELL
Dragwn 08-15-2006, 07:28 AM After giving them the "prove it" talk and it going to their "committee" which was probably three guys around a vending machine debating wether or not to screw me out of it..they decided to cover the repairs, now I want it in writing.
They are waiting for the stealership to decide what parts need to be replaced, I wouldn't mind a new tranny, but if only the case has to be replaced, I just want it back on the road.
I'll update when I have more solid info.
eazyrider_tim 08-15-2006, 12:10 PM Its not that traded in on the grey cobalt...hmm, I know its someone local.
Dragwn 08-17-2006, 08:02 AM They said they found a used tranny with 16k on it, and will warranty it till my policy with them expires, which is 2yrs off..now, how long it takes to get my car back..I dunno yet.
Dragwn 09-04-2006, 08:48 PM Well, the first tranny they got, was for an SPI..weeks go by, second one shows up looking like someone took a sledge to it. Standing under my car, thinking about trading it in on a new Fusion, my hone rings..warranty company was calling, after 3 weeks wasted and two bad trannies..they agreed to let the dealer get one and install it..so if, major if, they get it fixed, I may have my car back tomorrow afternoon.
I found my front pads were toast and discs looked like crap, so I ordered a new set of pads and discs from BAT and I'll need to put those on before I go driving anywhere but home.
eazyrider_tim 09-05-2006, 01:54 PM dang man, keep us posted.
Dragwn 09-05-2006, 03:37 PM Looks like tomorrow I hope to get my car back..if they'd had Fusions in stock when I went last week, I would have tried to buy a new car.
