Josh, it was nice meeting you at north park. Sorry I had to run and couldn't talk more. I wasn't feeling great snd needed water.

You guys missed a great auto-x. I had to represent the evo community by taking out the Z06.


Fwiw, I turn the boost up or down to keep it between 26-29 . I have never logged the car when doing this and it runs fine. Less logging more driving! Altho I use my nose to determine if I'm running rich and can turn it up more. It's seems to work for me. Lol
HAHAHA, What are the chances of that?! My wife told me on the way home that there was another guy there missing his left arm. I did not see him, or I would def went to talk. Why she didn't say any thing to me IDK. If it was you PM me, or let me know who he was. I'd like to meet.


Yea May 8th, as of now I'm in.

Was trying to get it out this Tuesday at the Test and Tune but we have a crisis at one of our accounts so I have to head up to Syracuse tomorrow.

My schedule has closed in on me as I will be out of town all next week. I am going to call BeaveRun to see if I can get out on the VDA for a few hours the week of the 26th.

Car will likely not see the track until 1st week in May...and so it goes....

Ah hh, the test and tunes are t uesday not Thursdays . I think getting the car on the vda is not a bad idea. There is an scca test and tune on may 2 I believe if nothing else works out. The rear diff will take some getting used too. I was actually scared the first runs in my car this last weekend. The car just wants to spin.

It was nice meeting some new people. I definitly dont remember everyones names.

I have to give props to Dan and Garretts rides. SICK! Dan, she sounded great on the dyno!


Dan... I will have to second the idea of mothly meets. Having a meet every once in a while creates more of a chance for the same people to miss the meet. Having them mothly or every other moths creates the chance for more people to make them. May 8th is good for me. I think we should do rolling locations. greensburg, monroeville, south hills, north hill. make it fair for everyone. I know in monroeville we can meet on my property and i can make sure no NO evo guys come spiling $h!T on peoples rides. I know it wasn't my ride but if i ever say anyone disrespecting anothers car i'd be holding the guy so Garrett can keep kicking him in the teeth! (you're a little bigger then me you'd do more damage!)


If the other guys i met can PM me with their names again so i can put names and screen names together i woudld appricate that greatly.

I'd be down for monthly meets, might not be able to make them all but nice having the option. Everyone's Evo looked great, would be nice to get them lined up next time, VIII, IX's, X's. Do you guys think name tags would be a bad idea? I mean it's kinda lame but would be nice on some level cause I'm horrible with names.

Please send my apologies to your buddy Brad, I ASSumed his nickname was Lefty and I hope I didn't offend him when I called him it. I realized about an hour later when Lefty showed up. I believe the saying goes "open mouth insert foot".

Good to meet some new people, I am definitely down for the monthly meets.
