I may actually be down for that. Troegs did those four IPAs to perfect the recipe for their upcoming IPA. Outside of the scratch beers, they've never done a full on IPA before. I believe that they are going to call it 'perpetually hopped IPA' or something along those lines. I've had three of the four scratches and IIRC 39 and 40 really stood out.

Sadly, yes. I've really been missing the car lately. I've never gone more than a week without driving the car, and it's been at Cherry Hill since January 31st. ******* mother****ing ***********!!!


Dan, what case of beer did you go with?

Ben I am willing to bet those connectors are the problem. I don't know if you're at all mechanically inclined but there's a walkthrough and the only downside is it takes like 2 hours. I just did Johns last weekend and it wasn't bad at all.

They are calling it 'Perpetual IPA', and in this case IPA will stand for Imperial Pale Ale not Indian Pale Ale. It has a very cool label.

I bet that you're likely correct, but it fried the wiper control module in the process. I haven't priced one out yet, but I've been let to believe that the wiper module is very pricey.

I'm still hopeful that I may be able to get Mitsu to warranty the repair.

Mom, you'll get it running here soon. I've got faith in ya.

Josh, glad to hear your is running. How bad is this oil leak? Bad enough to not drive the car?

Ben, hopefully you'll get that thing straightened out soon, 3 weeks is a long time. Make sure you have a set of cables when you go to pick it up. If they haven't moved it at all, that could take a toll on your battery.

About beer, it says Perpetual IPA will be released in 22oz bottles, doesn't say anything about a regular 12oz bottle, thats interesting. Also, do any of you know if Exton or any of the other distributors got any more Nectar in? I've been checking with them for 2 weeks, and they keep telling me "next wendesday"...

Yeah it's at least dripping every few seconds which I won't drive on (because I spent forever cleaning that engine bay). I suspect the oil pan sealant is leaking. I've never been good at applying that stuff correctly to an oil pan. It's either that or the stuff I use isn't as good as OEM because it wasn't leaking at all until recently. I have about 25 miles on it and the oil only appeared within the last 5 or so.

I think exton sold out of the first batch, and had been waiting on the next. I'll check there tonight, if they don't have it (they probably will, since Spaz did), I'll go to Spaz. Thanks for the heads up Dan.

The oil pan doesn't have a regular gasket? I didn't realize that. If its dripping that much, I wouldn't drive it either. Good luck with it.




Speaking of gaskets, I tried to order my valve cover gasket from Rockauto and it said it couldn't process my order for some reason. Not sure what thats about. I need to order one from somewhere online, I'm not paying D Ambrosio their rediculous price for it.

This quote doesn't have anything to do with my statement.

Do you wanna convert the waivers tent to the beer garden?
