well dave just text me or something if you want to do lunch or something even if its crappy out i can take my truck. im gonna go play some red dead redemption now.. for those of you who are into games. get it. its like grand theft auto with cowboys.. sweet.

 

L4D2 ftw!

Looks like the sun is trying to come out.

So I sent a message to the vendor of my 'muffler.' I went to Full Blown yesterday, and they suggested I find out about the warranty. I think I have 2k miles on that muffler. They should send me a new one.

As I've discussed, we need to get a meeting going very soon. Once we do this and get started, we can approach different dealerships in the area to inform them of our official status. Best of all, I think we can convince a dealership or 2 to host a Z car show or event to bring out potential new customers (and new members for us).

So email me your info if you haven't already. I just spent the last few hours typing up our by-laws and such. My wrists are sore.

 

I guess no one went to C&C today.

Aaron, how's the rain over in your area? It's been raining all day here.

 

damn, didn't even remember that was today.

as far as the rain:
off and on all day. I got some work done this morning before it was too wet. spent some time cleaning out the buildings afterwords.

 

^^ So ideas?
I am getting new headlights..Non-HID any good results from those who have switched?
Really like the new Eagle GT tires too, rain/dry not a problem..of course over the Kumhore tires, anything is prime rib

 

Well just got back from watching Take him to the Greek and let me say that movie was horrible, I cant believe they compared it to being as funny as the hangover... The Hangover was by far 10x better than this movie.

 

Hmmm.. trying to decide which car to buy next year.. I love my Z but I've always been a fan of being unique and with the prices of 350s coming down a lot I need something different. Trying to decide between an 05' elise or an 91 NSX, I can find both for around 25K. If I could afford the extra 10K i'd easily get the 97NSX hands down. What re your thoughts.

 

anyone know anything about mowers?

Hustler Mini Z 19hp kai / 52" deck $6600
or
Scag Tiger Cat 25hp kohler / 52" deck $7400

demo'd the hustler and it is a nice machine, but I have concerns it is underpowered when I get my bag/vac. ease of maintaince on it is a plus, feel/handling is awesome. Cut seems to be good

scag has more power, probably a better deck, but is 800 bucks more....
any other thoughts?

I am only mowing my yard ~1 acre and will be getting a bagging system for either one, but only using it a handful of times a year.

 

get the elise, unless you can spring for the newer nsx

 

Greg, that movie looks awful. Did you see it at the mall?

Sorry, Aaron. If it was me, I'd go with the Hustler. It sounds cooler, plus I can't justify $800 for a little extra power that will only last maybe 3 months out of the year. I think I'm Jewish....lol

And I agree about the Elise. I've driven one. It's so nimble and could run circles around the NSX.

 

I don't know about the elise. My buddy's girlfriend has one and its a sweet car but not one I would want to drive every day. He was blowing away a GT3 in the corners at the track last year though. Could be he's a better driver the GT3 would blow by on the straits then he would get over taken in the corners. Nick are you in La Crosse? I'm doing a charity bike ride up there in Aug. We'll have to have some beers.

 

Holy chit! It's Steve! I was just thinking about calling you.

 

Hell yes! Let me know what weekend so I can make sure to be available.

 

When I parked the z for the night, I noticed it landed right on 10K miles. It took 2 years, but It finally got there

 

Yea game is pretty sweet, picked it up today at Best Buy and been playin for 3 hours... Oops where did the time go...

That's what I said to the wife about the movie but they said it was as funny as the Hangover so we went... Big mistake.... Nah it was at the Lakeville Theatre. It's the one we always go to. They have the best prices when it comes to popcorn and pop compared to alot of other places

 

The Elise / Exige S is a terrible daily driver. I'd hate to drive it every day, especially on MN roads.

 

I just flipped 20k this spring on mine..... we need to drive more

 

I use my mower from end of march till november some yrs -> ~7 to 8 months

 

I agree.
What? You don't have snow? Most years, I can't mow until May and I don't mow after November.
