Ask him if there are options, sometimes he has multiple companies he can buy from, and like almost everything he can either buy cheap or expensive, depends on what you want. When I replaced the front screen in my STI he gave me like 3 different options from cheap/cheap to cost some more/ but is better glass. Sometimes the windshield has tinting at the top or has the vinyl tint overlay, or it may have an antennae inbedded, etc it just depends on what you want. His guys even went so far to remove my wife's parking decals off of the old windscreen and replaced them on the new one along with our radar detector not that big of a deal but a nice small detail. For fun sometime see if you can find a car glass that he knows nothing about, I called once for a buddy of mine who's grandma needed a windshield replaced on her old 80's Olds Cutlass Sierra and he knew right off the top of his head what glass it was... he's good. He's an auto enthusiast and motorcycle racer too.
I used to do the same thing, but especially in windy dust/gravel ridden Reno, its definately worth the extra 5 bucks a month to have it
Is anybody planning on going to the North vs South solo event in Hawthorne this year, end of May, 24th & 25th? If you dont want to participate, anyone want to share a ride/hotel? ****s getting expensive lately, so if anyone is planning or wants to go let me know.
Car will finally be done tonight!!! w00t!!! It'll just be on a base flash for now until I can get a hundred miles or so on the new turbo and cams to break them in!! Than I can finally romp on it and kick some ***!!!
Hey everyone, just dropping in to see how you are all doing. There is such a big difference in driving the evo back here in pa compared to the reno area. POTHOLES SUCK! People try to mess with me alot more here as well. I am also going to get tuned on 93 soon, so we'll see how much power we are all missing out on. Tripp, looks like the new setup is coming along well! I finally got around to posting some pics up of my car in show n shine under "first pics posted". Well, take care!

Car looks good man! I love your wheels! I lost 20AWHP when I switched to 91, but that was with minimal mods. You've got everything I've got and my friend made 380 on a DynoDynamics on straight 93 oct. with basically everything you've got.
Its running good. Still on a base flash and 14-15psi, so it won't be running in tip top shape until Wednesday hopefully. Still got about 7 or 8 psi to go and get the AFR's in check (running really rich). To be honest even with the low boost and rich tune it wants to pull hard when the cams kick in (3500 or so). Its also not near as lopey as anyone elses 272's I've ever heard, so its sorta sleeperish .

I'm down as well.....Used to do it on an almost daily basis when I had my M3. Then ran the VC Hill Climb event in a viper built by hennessey. I must say I needed to change my pants after that run. A fully built viper driven by a professional road racer on a road with cliffs on both sides is definately one of the scariest, yet one the top 10 of most fun things I have done in my life.

Yikes! A hennessey viper at VC would be unreal. I was scared in my stock viper at RFR, can't imagine what you did Braydog!
Let's set up a day to run VC. When's your car going to be 100% Tripp?
