I love that .gif. Always appropriate. I don't have any tags, I didn't hop on the tag bandwagon soon enough, now they are all taken up.

I am trying to come tomorrow. Just moved my sister out of her place today and have some crap to finish up in the garage. Car still runs great, a few little spots to smooth the tune out, but no biggie. A CEL came on today and I was out and thought something was f'ed. Turns out it is a power steering low pressure signal.... wtf? Never messed with that one. Mike should have fun on Monday, add it to his list.

Hope to see everyone at the meet tomorrow!

Hoping to make my way out to North park here in a little and at least catch the tail end of the meet. Had an issue with the car and also just finished working around the house. The WAPCE is on my ***.

I just filled up at the GetGo in Wexford this morning and to those tuned for E-85 or higher ethanol content be aware they are still running the E-76-78 winter blend. It mixed with the quarter tank I had already in and my content came out to E-80. I would go to Monroeville until they finally make the switch.

I asked the attendant and she said there was no difference in the fuels..... hmmm

So, I'm in a bit of a predicament...again. On the way to the AutoX, I hear a big clank, clank, clank, clank, clank coming from the passenger side front wheel. Get the wheel off after tech inspection and discover that my tire is terribly cupped and there is a huge gash going around about 75% of the tire. We looked in the wheel well but could not find any metal that looked like it could have done that kind of damage. Still havent determined if it wore down rapidly from bad alignment and frayed on its own or if I just hit a big chunk of metal on the highway and it shredded. The other three tires were perfectly fine.

The tires were Bridgestone RE01r's (out of production), so I can't buy just one. How bad/dumb would it be to buy 1 RE11 (closest in performance) instead of 4 new RE11's? I just really don't have a grand to blow on tires right now...lemme know what you guys think.


p.s. Big thanks to Jim for saving me from the depression of not running and allowing me to drive his car all day long! Thanks to Paul, Jeremey, and everyone else out there who were so supportive - really helps ease the frustration!
