I did as a matter if fact! I was gonna pick it up tomoorow but I said screw it and I'm leaving in 15 mins to head down and get it tonight!

The car is in Apache Junction but I will be in North Phoenix. I was hoping to leave by like 3 or 4 tomorrow.

It's not a big deal if y'all are busy. I was just whining cause I'm tired of missing out lol.
 
Going to have to skip this one. Just found cracks on the insides of my rear tires and will need a week to order them.

Oh well the "tread" was starting to disappear anyway :awe:

Yeah won't make it. Takes a while to get tires, plus I think I'm going to take my time and get some runout fixed in one of the wheels that's been there for a while, while I'm at it. Cheap ass OEM look knockoffs since SVT never made them wider than 9".

Still wounding why the tires are cracking where the sidewall meets the tread all around the insides only. Maybe I shouldnt be pulling lateral Gs on drag radials after all :awe:

Oh really? That's good to know...I've always gone to the Chevron and it's really expensive for E85. I also work right around there, between 40th and 40th off Broadway. I'll check it out!

Maybe this was the motivation I needed to build the coilovers I have spec'd out and install my Front Koni's. I still need those Quick Steer Roll Correction I need also.

Nice to meet a few other car enthusiasts besides the local volvo nuts. Once we get a few more of their cars running I will try to drag them out next time.
 
I've had 3 people ask me if we are doing another drive the end of this month, so I figure that's a sign. So, shooting for another drive on Nov 30th if anyone is interested.
 
anyone going to the good guys show this weekend? im gonna try to hit saturday, thats the swap meet portion as well as autoX and lots of cars in the show.
 
Might have to try one of these. Hopefully my 135i can keep up with your hot rods...

JB4 and you'll be fine.

Seriously though even a stock 135i would need a block under the accelerator for this unless you want to experience zero g.
