Well, I got my car back from the dealership.

Transmission is brand new. Although I dont feel the smoothness of the newer transmissions everyone is talking about. Anyway, Im glad to have the car back. It goes into gear without grinding so yay for that one.

On the other hand, the exhuast is now making noise and rubbing agains something and making loud noise even when idle. So that kind of chaps my ***.

Tomorrow im getting my brakes done, Ill just have my friend fix the exhaust for that as well.

Call me if anyone is going to woodward, Or looking to buy or sell a house :-)

Wow. that makes no sense. did you guys determine he was just clueless? Only other thing I could see is someone trying to solve an understeer issue in some very odd way. LOL

Yeah he's pretty much retarded. No two ways about that whatsoever. I SERIOUSLY wish I would have took a picture, it was hilarious. But I was afraid him and his boyeeezzz would have came over.

Naw not me. Still gotta wash the truck, gotta work tomorrow, just wouldn't work out for tonight. Although I may be able to stop by the milford shindig, we'll see how it works out.

Rain clouds still over here in Canton.

I might go to Milford if the weather is ok -- I'll make a gametime decision. What time and where again? (yes, too lazy to look back through the thread)

I haven't had much time to do tuning lately, so I really need to do more of that if I'm going to be driving on the freeway with you guys, AJ & Shifty!!!

I will have you $$$ for you too if you come

Fun night guys. Good freeway runs. That was very safe. WTF was I thinking.
I stopped at 150. I realized you guys were pretty far back and I was well in the 140's so i figured what the hell, might as well go all the way.

Yeah I stopped around 140. Less traffic would have been nice.

Shifty, when we went for that little drive, I couldn't believe how quiet my car was. That's why I had to ask if you had run it up to redline -- I didn't even hear it.
