don't they switch the e85 mix up in the winter time?


Dan, you were right about the chicken being the problem. Here our in-laws had it in their fridge for 5-6 days before we got it from them. Then, we froze it for a week and defrosted it in our own fridge for another 2 days before we cooked it...

I somehow managed to break 3 crank pulley bolts.. Had mitsu roadside assistance pick the car up from Ray's house and it was repaired under warranty..No problems with dirt or paintchips. Rallyarmor mudflaps ftw

It was a great time, damage wasn't bad. I placed second to last. They combined all your scores and I had a DNF first run which screwed up my total big time. Adam evo8dad won the whole shibang

It was real tight in the infield and they put out a few cones so you couldn't go too wide, but the car was def sideways quite a bit. There were a lot of photographers there with some serious gear. One guy said he took 1300 pics and there were only 23 cars so chance are he got some shots of me

After the 3rd car of the day made his pass they moved the last cone further from the wall. There was a close call when one of the cars rear end came within maybe 3 ft of the wall.

It was at the fastest part of the course through a slolam before the finish. Once they moved the cone in, it wasn't much of a turn anymore so there weren't any issues. But if they would of left it like that, there would of been some more very close calls for sure.

yeah i'm not too excited about running e70 in a couple of months. there is so much more pump gas in it that the exhaust smells more like gas than e85.

in other news i was over chu's neighborhood on saturday.

it's kind of like Grand Torino but instead of the little asian dude hanging out with his redneck neighbor with an American muscle car in the garage, the little asian dude hangs out with his puerto rican guajiro neighbors with like 8 big turbo japanese muscle cars in their garage.
