Crazy...no...I would call it passionate.
That would be easy to do....racing should be done at North Park by 1:00 PM, be at PRP by 2:15 PM. Plenty of time to get in 2 or 3 runs before the end of the test n tune.

hey guys, i need a little help.
i am trying to put on my cat back tonight and have run into a snag.
the two bolts on either side of the rear of my cat will not budge. they're not rusted, and i already liberally hit them with pb blaster.
i think the problem is that i just don't have the leverage i need, since i am on jack stands, and can't really get the angle on it i think i need.
any suggestions from you guys that have done this yourself? i would hate to have to goto a shop for something so relatively simple.

me either. i got my o2 socket today plus a couple other odds and ends.
i am gonna hit up pep boys tommorow, get some ramps and a longer breaker bar, and with any luck have it on by tommorow night.
although i must say, it really adds something to my living having a gorgeous 3" turbo back sitting on my love seat. haha

It would be nice to go to a car event...especially with some sunshine. I am really sick of snow. Fairfax Virginia is a bit of a drive...especially if you can't do any racing at a track. I would consider it if I could do some track racing...but it sounds like its just a car show?

alright, there are some quick pictures i took tonight, and a few quick videos.
it was a little late for me to get any good pics or vids tonight, but tommorow i will take some better ones. unfortunately the mic on camera doesn't do the sound justice.
the exhaust sounds great. it is nice and low, a little "burbly" lower in the rpms, but sounds nice and smooth when pulling.
