If you would like you are welcome to come with me to norbuilt to pick up your pan. The guys there seem to finally be warming up to me a bit. I get off at two but have to run to north park to pick up my omp lines and washers first.

LOL nah not jealous...

If I ever have kids they are each getting a civic that's about to breakdown. They will need to fix it and pay for all the repairs.

That way if they crash it its more of a loss for them then for me!

WOOOT!!!

You don't just get a sticker, you have to put in work to become a member. Shady is the only non San Antonio member and that is only because he comes down (every weekend it seems ) to help us with projects. Come on down for some mod days and then we will take a vote.

Sounds good, we have a couple of big builds coming up with Hoss-05 and Shady so we can always use an extra set of hands.
