Yeah it's fast, but it'll get JC in with us, Khail is off, and dknv now knows where Tamarack is located. Anyone game?

ArthurS 2002-12-26 04:02 PM

BOO 2002-12-26 05:56 PM

Would it be ok again to tag along once more :?: Are there any plans as of yet in regards to where you guys are taking off to from there ?
Ps: Thanks also for letting me post on here :)

imprezton 2002-12-26 07:12 PM

11 AM, you would be most welcome, Boo, and where we go is dependant on road conditions the day of :)

ArthurS 2002-12-26 08:18 PM

Heard its going to be pretty snowy, maybe some good pics somewhere or parking lot action......that would be cool if you came along BOO, so you can decide to buy yourself a WRX for New Years.

imprezton 2002-12-26 10:02 PM

Hmmmmm......Hunsberger Elementary is right down the road from Walmart, maybe 3 miles ;)

ArthurS 2002-12-27 10:38 AM

I would like to get some action shots in the snow. I have been dying to do some video editing lately. Just need footage.

khail19 2002-12-27 01:54 PM

I wasn't wearing socks either!

Missed it again
 
Hi all -
I was off the computer for a week, so I missed the 12/29 meet date. The pictures were cool, though.

What is everyone doing on 1/1? My mom had a superstition, that for whatever you're doing on the first day of the year, you'll be doing alot of that the entire year. So, I'd rather not sit in the house & watch tv, I'd rather get out & drive! Or go skiing, but it'll probably be a zoo if the weather is decent.

Hehe, I just got images of hippos, giraffes and zebras on skis.

Hey Khail, remember that ABS problem I had...

Well, it turns out... that little side fuse panel below and to the right of the panel in the dash... well, 2 of the slots are for spares, and the other two are for the ABS and somthing else... that fuse I yanked to replace the dash lighting one I blew was for the ABS.

So, there was nothing bad with the ABS... there's just 2 fuses for it, and I yanked one of them.

The crazy thing... at low speeds on snow and ice, the ABS totally sucks compared to having it off. Subaru needs to install speed sensative ABS, basically turn it off or scale it down at lower speeds. In snow and gravel, the car will slide to a stop a lot faster than it does under ABS braking!

I wonder how hard it'd be to retro-fit a Ford ABS system into a Subaru... :lol:

I know that day I may be a little hung-over, but I am down to do something. Just shoot some ideas.

imprezton 2002-12-30 05:57 PM

I'll be cooking up New Year's Dinner, seeing as my wife and I both have to work tomorrow night :p

Maybe if we do something early, I can make it out. I can show you all my "rear-ended by a vintage T-Bird" mod.

ArthurS 2002-12-30 07:05 PM

you were rear-ended?

damage?

imprezton 2002-12-30 07:15 PM

just split the bumper skin

ArthurS 2002-12-30 08:25 PM

that sucks. is the guy going to pay for it?

imprezton 2002-12-30 08:30 PM

of course. But I'm gonna hold out till the end of spring. Maybe I can save some other moron's insurance company a few bucks between now and then.

Man I did everthing right. Going by scott motors, readying to turn right on Holcomb, this kid was parked by scott and started to pull out (move forward) right next to me. So I hit the brakes cuase two cars moving in one lane is not good. little did I know that this TBird was trying to cut off the car behind me :lol: .

damage: like I said, my bumper skin is cracked pretty good. suspension and frame seem perfect. The TBird had fender and headlight and turnsignal parts all over the road.

Yessirree, I likes my OBS :twisted:
