I'm working the event this weekend. I'll look for your son's car when I'm on break...gotta get my 02 fix when I can. We brought the 75 c-4 sauber FIA 2litre sports racer...stop by and say hello if you ...

I hiked the inca trail back in 2000. It was spectacular. Things to note: there are two ways you can hike the trail. You can do the entire trail which can take five or six days. Or you can hike what th ...

That's how I did mine. Sometimes it's nice when simple and crude is effective for what you are doing...

I've got a set of black Pro-Cars that used to be in my daily driver, now they're just taking up valuable real estate in the shop. Their tattered but not moldy and void of any funky smells. They're you ...

Speaking of nudie bars in florida...maybe you can answer this one for me:

When I was stationed in florida with the Navy (orlando), I noticed there was a strip club on almost every corner BUT it was ...

I recently cut ALL the factory brackets and wiring hold downs out of my car...good luck to the next guy who owns it if he ever wants to "go back to stock"...

I'm fairly certain they only come as an entire unit. (that's how WorldPac sells them, at least) Order the new assembly, then keep the outer ends you have now in a safe place for when the time comes to ...

No doubt. It's good thing to have and a no brainer to add to the inventory of safety equipment. I'm just doing my budgeting on my car's rebuild right now so red flags went shooting up when I read your ...

Hey Pedro,

Are you sure about VARA requiring them? I just scoured their site to confirm, but couldn't find any changes...let me know if I'm missing something.

One more thing to buy...it never en ...

Check to make sure your brake shoe adjusters aren't getting in the way. They are two eccentric posts (one per shoe) that are turned on the back side of the backing plates with a 17mm wrench. They tend ...

I must admit I get sucked into reading these threads sometimes and they always remind of one bad day I had back when I worked on boats in the bering sea: Alarms sounded, so I scram ...

Nice dude...you're flyin' along with this project. One question: did you pull your motor or is it hanging in the wind right now? If it's hanging: what route did you go to hang from?

Boy, that reeks of effort! I always thought the ultra cheap and lazy way to get a shine was a good old fashioned transmission fluid wipe down... :)

I gotta faded E12 I might try that 'fancy' paint ...

Tell us how you REALLY feel about Bonds, scestes...

Bonds, best PLAYER ever?!! No chance. He's only been on one side of the plate. When Bonds pitches (and wins) in a World Series (or any game for ...

No question: Targa Newfoundland. Also a shoe in for "car of the year" when it comes time for that.

Finally, an 02 related activity within walking distance from my house! I'll stop by...perhaps I'll fashion a fancy vest out of 02 hubcaps for a night on the town.

Here ya go...

Out of curiousity: Did you go Saturday? If you did, did you get any pictures of the incident involving the red Volvo Byers Special and the Birdcage Maserati? (a friend of mine drives the Byers and I'm ...

All the above tips and pointers are great, definitely follow that advice. I can't speak enough to the benefits of thoroughly 'nut and bolting' a car before track days.

Once you are on track, if you ...

Hey they Jared,

No sign of your email. Try sending again. Pick up next weekend is fine so long as it's on Saturday. (I'm going out of town for a training seminar saturday night.)(They better have t ...

One suggestion: when I did mine a few years back, I used that plastic board product (whose name escapes me right now) instead of particle board. Particle board will warp and rot when it gets wet. (bei ...

Many thanks.
