Whats going on everyone?? Im still very new and inexperienced with my car. I was wondering if any one would be willing to meet up with me in the near future and drive my car and see how you think its running. Like I said I really dont know a whole lot and would really appreciate some advice on what I can do to make it run better and some ideas as far as upgrading.

Hey. I got that 2-3 shift down this afternoon. Now if I can only put together a nice 1-2-3. I still have to remind myself that my foot is on the gas. I'll keep practicing every time a road gives me the chance.

Break...

I'm looking at roughly $3,300 shipped for the cast HTA35r with 0.63 turbine housing. Right now I'm doing power-under-the-curve comparisons with the FP Red/meth set ups to see which of the two comes out in front. More to follow...

Well I went by Petsmart to get some things for my new dog and I saw that the Target paking lot is blocked off with a big black net. I wonder if people or the cops started complaining about us being there?

So are we meeting up tonight or when? We can chill at that park but the thing is it has a very deep dip. Most of us dropped our cars and might f**k up the bottom of or cars. I will drive by there today and if I can clear it, Im down for that being the new spot. One thing that we have to check is when they turn the lights off. I went to walk my dogs there before and they turned the lights off at 2130.

It's all good as there is no shortage of places to meet. I'm not sure about Longbranch Park as there is some type of ban there after the lights go out. I went there one night just to chill out and I wasn't even parked for five minutes before the Christmas tree lights came on. Lions Park is on the other side of SSL not too far from Target. There's also the park to the right just as you take the Indian Trails exit. I'm sure there are a few other places too.

I would have to agree with levar as far as lions park with it being the closest park near target. Just trying to keep it in the same general area would be good.

We can also use the paring lot next to Walmart, the old Goody's store parking. It is at the end of Guitar Center.

Here is a picture of it in the background

I would like to teach anyone that is willing to learn, but they have to be VERY VERY carefull. The last peson I showed I think tried to hard and now is having car problems. I hope its not my fault, sorry pure_evo, I told you it takes time and patience to get it right. I hope ALL is well with your car, I feel like its my fault.

Naw its not your fault...lol Ill let levar expalin if he chooses to do so...wheres the big dummy smily when you need one..lol He will be fine... the target parking lot is actually still doable we would just have to shift down a little further then where we usually park, seems easiest thing to do.
