The Ohio Random Thread... aka We Should Probably Be Working

^^Yeah, I was gonna say, no need to buy online. If you were to do it, I'd say stitch it symmetrically so that the busiest part is coming from the top, the part right under the shift knob, if that makes any sense. Busy on top, going to less busy at the bottom. That's a cool idea, though. I was trying to think what I should do for the headliner for the hard top I'll eventually get for the Miata.
 
On the joann fabric website, that particular design says it is "online only"
I don't think I can just go to the store and buy it. I will stop in the one in Medina tomorrow before work just to double check, but....
Thanks anyways for wanting to look, Evan....here we are, talking about fabric at Joann's of all things....
 
My dad didn't appreciate it today when I yelled "Don't lift!" while he was driving the golf cart today..
I love it! I for one usually keep a golf cart matted. I also like to wedge a long tee into the governor on gas carts so I will have extra speed,(almost too much) bad part is they tend to backfire a bit and that is a dead giveaway that you have messed with the cart. I have a great golf cart/golfing story but it would take too long for me to type it all.(hunt and peck style)
 
Ehhhh after flipping a golf carts, I tend to stay reserved on them. In my defense, it was a three wheeler...The other time I had fun was while powersliding down a hill covered in morning dew. That golf cart had a golf ball retriever mechanism on the front, so it was totally stable...Oh the joy of being a youth and working on a driving range...

Care to explain how you do that??
 
Phen, here is something just for you......I will try and get you car tobe a "test mule" as they will be coming on board as a sponsor for our corrals, check it out!

Hello, my name is Aaron Lambert, I am Director of Competiton for Penske Racing Shocks. We just started testing with some of the RX8's at the last VIR test and we had some very good results. We also have a new Miata In-Line Double adjustable spec that is ready to be released at SEMA and is currently being tested with Skip Barber.
I wanted to extend our hand and see if there is anything we can do for you. We attend a majority of the Rolex races and would be interested in a Tech discussion, shock seminar, or any other way we can help, we are certainly open for that.
Please give me a call if you are interested, thanks.

(lol2) You can't tell me where to jam the tee? C'mon!

I can try..... there will be an L-shaped piece of metal near-by where the throttle cable runs, rotate it and jam a tee in it. Be aware you can't do this to all gas models. I think maybe the manufacturers got smart and made them "un-tuneable"
 
Hey guys. My friend is hooking me up with 4 tickets to the Piston Power show thing at the IX center this sunday. Tessa is probably coming with me (assuming she can get off work early at 1pm) but I've got 2 other tickets if anyone wants to go?

He works for a radio station and always hooks me up with tickets to stuff for working on his cars. He's got a stock 1995 Impalla SS that is just amazing. He doesn't drive fast at all but when he steps on the skinny pedal in that car I was shocked! When I changed his thermostat for him I popped the hood and saw to red Corvette valve covers starring back at me. I was like "What the hell?". Haha! I had no idea.
 
im thinking about starting a stock height / wheel gap thread.

because those of us who still have to drive a ways in 5 inches of snow sometimes need a thread as well!

(i put this in this thread since you all would appreciate it... and because it is like the insipid thread of 247)

i know... but how far do you have to drive?

i drive 25 miles one way... and at midnight. way before any plows will be out.
 
Oh. Yeah. Nevermind. Haha! I drive about 13mins to work on a busy road that is plowed pretty well.

Have you invested in some snow tires? I got some Blizzaks last year from one of Phens friends and they are amazing. I can't believe I went this long without snow tires before. My car is like a tank in the snow now (in a good way).

ps- Sean those 3 clips are amazing. Thank you for posting them.
