Shut up both of you! Cleaning up that puddle was exhausting. Good thing this ICE doesn't melt!

yep, $50 for unlimited runs.

about my car; I have an estimate from driver#2's insurance and it is lower then the value of the car. however, they are still doing their investigation so its unclear whether or not they'll accept full blame. My gut feeling is they will, and the car will NOT be totalled, but its all speculation at this point. Should know more by the end of the week.

My body shop guy said its a good sign they came to look at the car cause if there was any doubt about who fault it was they wouldn't even bother to send someone out. The bad news is the estimate was a little 'light' and didn't take into account all the damaged parts, so I'm expecting that number to jump up a few grand.

If you guys go monday, check out "Zandy's" and grab a cheesesteak.. It's right up the street from LVGP and an excellent place, totally different style cheesesteak then philly but equally as good.. That place has been there like 50 years.. Hopefully I can make it out to hand out some *** whoopins..

If they send you the estimate, read the parts list. Insurance companies always try to get away with using aftermarket parts to lower the cost. Tell them you want all OEM equipment. My 03 with 95k on it is worth $15k according to insurance provider, so I'm sure yours has to be at least in that price range if totaled? I hope you get by this Marc.

Ben, are you working on mroe parts? Whats going on that you're not autox-ing?

Looks like LVGP is $70, I'm not a member so I would have to pay the extra $20. Thats getting a little pricey... I just spent a good bit of change, and will be spending more in the next couple of weeks when my car gets fixed. Not to mention I'm paying stupid school taxes (real estate) right now. I don't even have kids... who makes these laws...?

Jeff if you and I both decide to go, we should ride together if possible. We can rock the Accord.

What exactly is this karting? I hope it's better than the Go-Karts @ Oaks. I forget the name of the place but since the new ownership it's now twice as expensive and they've slown the karts down a lot. Needless to say I was pissed the last time I went. Are these electric or gas?
