Would anyone consider maybe a weekend meet in cedar falls this year? Maybe a meet and greet Friday night at buffalo wild wings. Rent a few hotel rooms (there's one we stayed at last year that has pool tables, pool and a mini arcade.) sit around and drink beer, then hit the track the next day? Then plan something for Sat night and leave Sun. I figure might be able to attract some of the MN, WI, and IL guys also make it more of a Midwest meet :).

You know I'd be there in a heartbeat!!

Edit: Actually, I doubt it would even take me that long to get there in my TT-R ;)

Perfect.

And might I say, what a great day today would be to take the top off for a cruise. Fuck this waiting for this turbo, it is killing me.

I agree!

I have been waiting on ups for some parts, so this is my progress under the hood.

Notice no turbo to be found anywhere.

So in the meantime I needed to do something.
So why not swap those cool old sawblades out for some mags.

Moar wide.

Parts car is in hover mode!

From this on my driver.

To this.
I need to invest in some coilovers, or some lowering springs soon.

Looks to me that someone in the past has lowered my parts car. No aftermarket coilovers, but I think they may have cut the stock springs.

Ya looks like they might be cut. I'd just get a set of Eibach springs. I should have enough good TEMS struts to sell you to make a good set. That will give you the stance you want for awhile and you wont have any issues dragging.

Yeahh, if you get around to pulling one off. I just need a rear one. How much would you want, I know its a little bit of work, I could come help pull it too.

Just brought the car back from Chitown. It is to nice of a night to stay in. I think I might go for a cruise around Des Moines.

Oh Emerica would you be willing to sell some body parts off of your parts car. Especially the rear bumper.

I'm impressed Mark! Can't wait to see this car in person. I've got a few more things to finish up hoping to get my base tune and cruise done at the end of the month. Then hitting the dyno in norwalk middle of next month hopefully to put up high 500's realistically. I'd love for the car to make 600.
