Couldnt make it to wings last night, i was kinda absorbed in the 360- damn that thing is addictive.\
Anyone know if the "Microsoft broadband Xbox wireless adapter" ( 802.11) will work on a 360? Its made for a regular xbox, its a wireless reciever pretty much- it plugs right into the ethernet port and has a AC port also to power it. I just dont know if it would work with the 360 if its made and designed for the original Xbox??
Andddddd...................heres a pic i snapped before the car show (for the meet at the local park before the caravan).
Girl on the left is my friend Shannon, girl on the right is Carmen (shes actually a mod on another car site). It took about 10 seconds of "...but its an evo....and my birthday is tomorrow....you hve to pose on it" to get them to do it.

Morning fochers, bare with me this morning... I have a lil happy happy brown nose story to write...
As I'm sure most of you don't know, I have a philosophy that I don't put/endorse anyone/company on the car. As a matter of fact, I am willing to pay more for parts that have no logo. The only time I ever endorse someone is if they go out of their way to help out. So today, I'd like to give you another reason why you should be taking your car to Big Bear for all suspension work.
Starting 8 years ago, just before I started taking it apart, I got the evo allignment done at a local shop by a friends friend. (Cheap on the side, etc.) As it turns out they said they did the work and on my way home I was getting on the highway and the *** end swung around! Since it was a side job, I couldn't get money back and I didn't trust them to work on it again. So I go to Big Bear... and it turns out the previous guys stripped a bolt in the control arm. (Yay) So instead of telling me to get parts they fab up a bolt at no additional cost. They send me on my way... I'm a happy customer, woo hoo.
Fast forward 12 years and it's finally time to get another allignment. So I make an appt... but have to cancel the day of. Reschedule... cancel the day of... reschedule again... cancel the day of. Reschedule AGAIN... cancel the day of. Never once did they say a word. Always "That's fine, bring it in when you can." Well today was that day. I dropped it off this morning and on the way home Marty calls and says...
"There appears to be a non standard bolt in the back of the car."
"Yes, I know, you guys fabbed that up for me 2 years ago!"
"Well, it seems to be holding up fine, but if it's alright with you I'd like to give Mitsubishi a call and see if I can't get the correct bolt."
"You mean you're going to go to the dealer, get the bolt and put it in?"
"Yep."
... I almost didn't know what to say. It's so rare to see someone go out of their way to help somone out nowdays. (Or if they do, it costs you an arm and a leg.) And while I have yet to pick up the car, the effort alone has prompted me to write this note. So next time you think about your suspension or wheels, give Big Bear a try.
My official list now has 2 persons... kcevo and Big Bear Tire.
..... sniff sniff.... LOL!
