Ridiculous that people can 'tune' cars for a living like that too, Paul.

I guess I must have missed him, since I came so late lol. Eric's burgers were good, and the hot dogs had a spicey kick to them.

+1 for another bbq soon.

Yeah, I've bought parts from that guy before, he seemed cool. Although prices are pretty high... I was in a jam and needed some spark plugs, over $20 each!!! I think I found them online for $13 and just about cried LOL.

But anyway, I recently took my car in to courtesy, and Todd seemed pretty cool in the service dept. But I'm sure a lot of you guys live in the NW so courtesy is far away.

Also had a great time at the auto-x on sunday! Congrats to Brandon and Thomas, VERY fast times! And Robert too, good job man! - Was Ardie also driving your car? I didn't get to meet him, but saw him on the results list. I think they messed up on my fastest time (got a time slip with a 49.7xx I believe - but maybe that was a mistake) Didn't matter since I still got first in the B stock class.

uhhh yah that was my little brother. my parents' house is loud so he always play games that loud. plus it was eric that changed the volume when sam was playing mario bros. he just didn't change it back when they started playing modern warfare

and no fredo, he's not from another country, lol. he was born here, just like me. he's just not that social, his name's samir.
