We really should all show up in firesuits and helmets one night... show 'em we mean business.

Anyway... if the karting sucks, I certainly don't want to go. I just remember last fall (or whenever it was) the cold weather kept all the HS chodes away meaning more track time and less tools on course. But if the employees are being assholes, then what's the point.

So, I guess we should plan to come down at about 5:30 or 6 and go straight to the meet? Where's the current location, I think you guys moved it since I was there last.

It looks like Aaron will be home all day so you guys could come down a little earlier. talk to him for the times. The new meet is just up from the old one. Check the meets thread on i-club for door to door directions

Yeah, I'll be around. Scott, meet is at the same place as last time, when you had the SVX down here, but you've got my number, too.

You guys are welcome to come down early.

I thought for some reason you guys had to move again it since then. Guess not.

But if you're around all day, then we might as well come down a bit earlier and hang out before the meet. I need to see GTA:SA!!

So who's going:

Scott
Deede
Nick
Kevin?

And if you're going, make sure you've got M+S tires on the car... it's snowing today in Truckee, and even though it's supposed to clear up for the weekend, I'm not sure I'd want to risk driving over the pass on summer tires!

Nick's gotta drive himself since he has to come back early to go to work. (or does he? )

I was gonna bring the SVX since it's the freeway cruiser, and I'll need my own ride if I'm visiting w/ my sister or something... but I'll only have room for 1 passenger w/ the P1's in the car (not like the rear seat fits an adult anyway).

Deede said she'd drive if needed... sooo... it sounds like we'll have 3 cars for 4 people, unless Kevin or Deede want to ride with me and Nick down, then cram into my car for the ride back once I've dropped off the rims. But remember, that back seat is about half the size of an Impreza's...

Looks like I'm gonna ride down with Deede, since you and Nick have to go different places (Nick leaving early, you going to your sister's) plus 3 of us won't fit in the SVX. I think we're also gonna bring back my wheels.

If you wanna do that, you need to come down early, as your rims are in my car, which is, alas, still at the shop, and I dunno how late it'll be open.

We're doing Saturdays only by appointment now, too much business

I wouldn't mind dropping by the shop to see how things are looking over there. Plus if Joe's around, I want him to hear the noise the SVX's tranny is making. I don't think it's a big deal (just a symptom of the known issue) but I wouldn't mind some re-assurance that the car's not just gonna gring to a halt one day soon.

I'll find out if he's going to be in tomorrow. I know Nate will, but I'll check tonight and give you a call when I have a better estimate on times.

may I ask what the plan is? I need to have an EGT bung put on my car and maybe a dyno. Is this something I could get done while down there?
