I can't wait, I haven't done an event with him since my junior year of high school. He got me started in auto-x actually, so it should be a trip down memory lane.

Car is a lil different from what he is used to but should be a great time overall

He's heard a lot bout you guys and knows the comp is fierce, lets not let him down and showcase some solid runs on the weekend!!

YO BRO! thats awsome! i wish i could do things like that with my dad, but he is an ol' school azn man that always talks about doind the right thing. . . . So i hope your dad beats the shyt out of every body's time!

i got money on your dad bro! i just hope he gets a hang of your new set-up within the 1st run.

They carry coolant lines Chu? I doubt they would have this in stock... I'd be better off going to the hardware store or Pepboys and buying some line the right length.

Yeah, if it's just a simple coolant line, it's very easy to just pick up a length of hose and replace it so you at least can drive for a while.

Its the coolant line that runs from the bottom of the throttle body to the back of the head. Its got a pin hole in it, I can drive it, but I don't really think its a good idea.

Jeff, maybe I'll try to hit you up later on. I don't have your # though. I'll pm you or something if I need to get a hold of you.

Thanks guys

That would be a very easy one to replace with an off the shelf hose.
