I'd like too point the finger too my flat right rear tire... My next set will be some light 225's... I think the 245's just slow me down too much

it's a good thing I drove through that parking lot on the way home.... I normally don't work Wed. but I'm leaving for Spain Monday so they messed with my schedule...
Anyway, I'll definitely be there for your meet Rob. I have work at 3, which gives me plenty of time for an oil change :P

yeah, i was bout to blame ur tires too josh. that, and maybe ur shiftin a lil too late
i dont think just cause u can shift at 10,000 rev (i still think thats awesome!) doesnt mean u should. the rotary gets most of its power at 8,500 rpm i believe. thats why i try to shift right before 9,000. maybe at 8.8k or so.
it seemed like that worked for me too
so where is ur house rob? cause i dunno if i want to do anything to my 8, just look and be amazed

on the drive home today I was just thinking that shifting above 9,000 RPM is becoming really painful and slow... I remember with 87 octane on a cold day the 9,000 + RPM range was a lot quicker but with this humid weather and 93 octane its a different ball game.

hey, that LED conversion thing you did to ur car is something i might want to do to mine, cause i really liked the looks of it.
hopefully sometime soon i can run by a muffler shop and see if i can get those tips i want
okay, the meet on the 22nd is a unsure thing for me. cause if that hurricane gets close to here, im runnin away. i ran from katrina, or rita... w/e it was. and yeah. i plan on doin that again this time if it gets a lil nasty. hopefully hurricane Dean doesnt get close to here

I'll show up. You can get a more serious ride in my car.
I'm gonna go through these tires in a matter of 10 days at this rate lol.

Keef - you better show up, too.
I want another ride in your car. Everyone that's ridden in my car seems to think it's pulling harder than theirs. I'm curious as to whether or not I'm as fast or faster than you.

Hey, I forget - who was it that had done the cooler A/C "mod"? I'm considering doing it, but I'd like to know exactly what materials were used, rather than experiment on my own and risk breaking something.
