We knew you would come back lol. Good choice on the car, you really can't beat a IX and that car was kept relatively stock and taken well care of.

Ok so i went to go have my rotors cut just this time, theres 20k miles on them so i figured they wouldnt be to bad to cut... and the people said rear rotors are already warped.. and front had a lip on them to big to fit into the machine?!?! how can this happen already at 20k miles. The stock pads looked like they wore easily and still have quite a bit of pad life left in them.

Are you going to the first one at Sunset, Jim? I think I'm going to try to make it. They actually give you your ET there - just no trap speed.
Yep....I want to check it out and see what the track is like...never been there or even heard of it.

Fast Five movie

Well...went an saw number 5 of the fast an furious....it was pretty good I have to admit. It even had an EVO in it....for about 1/2 second in one scene.

Not as many car chases or races as previous movies, but LOTS of action, some of it completely ridiculous. If you sit there and say "how the f.... could that do that..." you might be disappointed, but if you like mindless wrecks, violence, and action...it was a really good flick.

Welcome to the neighborhood. I'm in Blairsville several times a week. Hope to see you running around sometime. Enjoy your time at Wyotech. I think it's a great school if you apply yourself. I've had several friends go through there and are now gainfully employed in the auto industry.

As far as a tuner, I'm not real familiar them. I'm not that deep into the tuning scene - yet. Some guys on the forum like J&S. Others like to make fun of them. Here's a link http://www.jsdyno.com/index.html

Some of the others should add to this list soon.

Again, Welcome. And if you haven't been to Clem's yet, you need to eat there.

Welcome! car looks good. As for tuning, J&S like eagle stated, or there is Buschur in ohio. About 2 and half hours from pittsburgh. CBRD which is 3 and a half hours or so in York PA. Or if you want to drive 7 plus hours to NJ theres ivey, turbo trix, speed circuit, etc etc etc..

I enjoyed it as well, it sure made a ton o cash. I talked to plenty of people who i thought were car people who can't stand the series of movies. I don't understand...it's not like there are any car movies made these days.
