Sarge, got into LA late, your time, I`ll call you thurs. I want to see the new wheels.
Joe, If you remember, bring that socket to the Diner Sunday to take off the rotors. Thanks.

I guess this will be a big Show and Tell meeting on Sunday.
Park first, then diner?
Lil'O is running nicely. The ECM is learning the new airflows and will soon tune out all the additional horsepower! The pipes look hot. Thanx again Steve for the valve cover plate. I put it on as-is. I didn't paint or PC it yet. Still, it looks good. (Sorry about your car. Does this mean that insurance will pay for new, unsmoked taillights? )
Wait 'til you guys scope out my horn setup. It sounds like the Ferrari horn! Tomorrow I have to get a front plate on. My old setup ate up the intercooler grille. I still need to install the A-pod and the I-pod. Also, I'm permanently moving the rear view mirror up and to the right to clear my field of vision on right turns. Then a vacuum, wash, polish and leather treatment and I'm ready for Sunday!

Formula One Cars at Lime Rock Park on Memorial Day Weekend
Eau Rouge, Becketts, Casino, Parabolica.
Formula One cars will add two new famous corners to their Curriculum Vita.
Big Bend and The Downhill.
For the first time, a breathtaking selection of Formula One Machinery from one of the great eras of the Series will be racing at Lime Rock Park on Memorial Day Weekend. Authentic cars from the World Championship will compete in two races organized by Historic Grand Prix, a group dedicated to the
preservation and use of these great machines. Cars that were driven to success by some of the greatest racers in the world will undoubtedly come close to breaking the Lime Rock Park track record in an unmatched demonstration of technical sophistication, power and handling.
The great names of the sport, Andretti, Senna, Gurney, Mansell, Moss, Ascari, Prost, and Schumacher all developed and affirmed their talent racing in Formula One. And, they drove cars which are legendarily faster than anything else around a given track.
Marques like Maclaren, Ferrari, Wolf, Penske, Cooper, and Lotus established their brands and competitive reputation racing at tracks like Monza, Silverstone, Spa and Monaco. Manufacturers like Toyota, Ford, Renault, Mercedes Benz, and BMW have spent hundreds of millions of dollars to show that they can match technical brilliance with the specialists who traditionally have concentrated on winning the Formula One World Championship.
With around 500 horse power available in cars weighing not much more that a thousand pounds these cars promise to provide a really tremendous spectacle on the 1.5-mile Lime Rock Park. And, they will be on view in a special Midway Paddock area.
For a fascinating moment, Lime Rock Park on Memorial Day Weekend will echo to the resounding sounds and spectacular sights of real Formula One cars from the glory days of the World Championship...when Villeneuve, Hunt, Peterson, and Andretti hurtled towards their destiny all over the globe.... not a spectacle to be missed!
The Road Racing Classic on Memorial Day Weekend will also feature the Koni Challenge and F2000. Event tickets and Premier Fan Hospitality tickets are on sale now. All tickets include free access to the paddock area and free parking. Discounted advance tickets are available until Friday, 15 May. Following that date, higher gate pricing will apply. Kids 12 and under are always free.
WELL THE BOAT IS DONE AND THE WHEELS ARE ON I'M READY . GREAT NOW YOU HAVE A JOB YOU CAN DO MORE MOD'S . NO NO NO SWAPPING
Hahaha i sure hope so! i gotta ship the car back up from Florida with my first check!!!

Had a run sunday with a 95 corvette on the way home from the beach, I took him from 60 to 120, and when I got home as I was pulling the car into the garage I noticed my windshield had a chip in it, must have gotten hit with a rock. Serves me right for running with him, so pissed, but I'm going to repair the chip and hopefully not have to change the windshield.I still can't believe how much a tune transforms this car into a beast. Would like to add it was a clear road, so no one was in jeopardy.
