As for pissing my neighbor off again, don't worry I plan to have everyone over once it is warmer. Especially after that cop told me that it was time to wrap it up.

Chu, that speedhunters article was awesome.
Yea, it comes to about $8 a bottle, which isn't too bad I guess. I am a beer mixologist (at least that's what I tell myself). My favorite right now is a Black Cherry...Cherry Wheat and Guinness, half and half. Delicious!

You can also do Black and Blue (Blue Moon and Guinness) or a Smoothy (Woodchuck and Guinness). Very good, and of course smoooooth.

Try Hoegarten and Guinness.

Not only does it drink better, but it is much more fun to order a Black Hoe.

I hover over that site all day too man. Literally every hour I check back in.
I dropped jaw on seeing that warehouse just lined with evos. Not to mention the wrc parts stack up they have going on too. I'm assuming you read the other Sumo Power story with them picking up the FIA GT GTR's, absolutely amazing looking facility and crazy opportunity for that company.

On another note I am sad to say that I will be out for the next season of autocross. I'm real disappointed at not being able to duke out an entire season with you guys, this last summer was easily the most fun I've had behind the wheel. Which makes me believe I will most definitely have to drive back to Philly for at least one event.

But on that note, I found a job!! Damn hard feat to accomplish in these times for a graduating ME, so I'm pretty psyched about it. But yes it is out of state, heading back to the midwest. I'm already divvying up my signing bonus in my head for some more upgrades, probably not the smartest thing to do but it's always nice to entertain the desires. Haha, no longer broke as a joke college budget modding!

ps chu, this month is readers month... I immediately thought about those pics from the art museum to send in for philly evo coverage. Would be kinda cool assuming they would even choose them.

Doug, congratulations on your accomplishment. Getting a job immediately out of school is very exciting. I was in your position once...broke and worried about the job market! Very exciting times ahead of you. Sorry to hear you won't be able to join us for the summer series, but I hope you at least come out to 1 of the 2 remaining winter events.

Doug, thats awesome man... so happy for you. Its tough out there right now, so for you to land on your feet before you even grad is sweet!
Not that upset you won't be autoxing with us this summer as YOU KICKED MY A$$ EVERTIME WE WENT OUT! j/k of course, you will be sorely missed.

Pete, Idaho is awesome, one of the few states I really wouldn't mind moving too. Boise is a great little city...

Petey jr. is at a mere 5psi of boost right now, if he runs any more he gets a boost leak out of his patoot!

BTW the only reason I am up so early is because I am still at work
The detroit deisel is lulling me to sleep though, I'll go home when the traffic dies down..


Also, anyone want to get together sat or tonight for some snow fun or some pictures?
