I'm in for pretty much any weekend in the summer, I backloaded all my wedding stuff to the fall. I'm good for bringing some food and whatever else, plus I'll bring my grill over and all my cast iron stuff and do some cooking.

My boss is a gigantic rear end in a top hat, and I haven't had more than a couple of days off since August. It'll all be worth it in the end.

Things that happen at Fart Pipe's place. Kastein decided to toss an old coil spring into the burn barrel, molest it, and then "temper" it.

I saw God that night too. INTERNETRACECAR brought over a couple of his fast mopeds and I took the 70cc one out to see what it could do, which felt like 45-50mph. Got into a tank slapper up against a guardrail and almost lost it at full speed. I thought I was going to die for sure. I was able to recover though and as soon as some checks come in next month Im putting a 70cc kit on my moped.

We'll have to check that out soon. I told my buddy about the Mass Trans Trail / PDR trip and he is interested, so I will probably be riding shotgun with him.

I've been meaning to make it to one of these for a while, so you can count me in. I should have my transmission fixed by then and won't have to baby my car anymore.

Who wants to help me/supervise and drink with a valve adjustment? I gotta do my valve cover gasket and the F20 is due for a check on that at 100K miles. I don't wanna pop the cover off to replace the gasket and then take it off again to do that later

Dunno if I'll rent a car or borrow one but I will drink beers and smoke weed with you people if you want

I'm pretty sure even HF forging plant employees would be horrified by my methods and safety equipment that night. Unsure if I'll be around those times, but hopefully. Friday nights I'm usually at Fart Pipe's place doing things like... that. A lot more people used to show up but work schedules keep loving them over

Saturday, June 27, 2015 is the Canaan Summer Rallycross in Canaan, NH. If any New England area Goons want to drive the Paseo they're welcome to. Just note you'll need to be there by 7:45 AM, work course (resetting cones or calling them on the radio), know how to operate a manual transmission, and borrow a loaner helmet if you don't have a SNELL SA2005+ one. Registration is $70 for non-SCCA members. Registration closes June 24 but to make grid smoother for the organizers it would be useful to know within the next week or two if you're set on going. There will also be events 8/2/15 @ Canaan NH, 9/26/15 @ Okemo VT, 10/17/15 @ Cummington MA. As long as I can get the car to these events I'm happy to share the car.

I can probably do something toward the end of August. I'll see if my shittiest shitbox is up to the trip. It's running/driving really awesome right now.

Noise Complaint posted:Only if it still has my bottlecaps on it If I counts I drive to and from the events on your bottlecaps. Once this set of rallyx tires gives up the ghost I'll be swapping them from the stock steel wheels onto another set of bottlecaps. Luck would have it they're a pretty good fit for the Paseo, super cheap, sturdy as heck, and fairly lightweight.

Sandbagger SA posted:Of course, the date is entirely up to Fart Pipe, but are the preliminary results for NEAI 2015 availability: It's a bit of a hike for me, but I'd try to make it out on whatever weekend gets picked, provided something I own is running well enough to make the trip. Right now I'm 1/5, so I'm doing OK I think. Fun fact, while stopped in traffic on the way back from the one at Fart Pipe's place (I think NEAI 2.0??) there was a big van alongside me (with government plates ) that looked to be filled with HS girls on some sort of field trip. The driver tapped the horn, I looked over, and 3 of them flashed me I have a feeling alcohol was involved somehow. Sandbagger SA posted:Anyone who hasn't should at least once This too. I had jerky video footage of one such ride, but lost the phone maybe a month or two afterwards. It mostly featured blurred scenery, engine noise, and barely audible (but fairly constant) retard laughter from yours truly

I would say chase cam would be a good idea, but I don't know if anyone else would want to subject their vehicle to that.

I don't. The white MJ is never seeing the road again for a variety of reasons, the XJ isn't either, neither of the subarus is getting wailed on and the other MJs aren't getting beat up like that. I suppose if someone feels like trailering the white MJ there for me I'd love to beat on it some more, but that would be ridiculous and a waste of time.
