MI Fun Drive II-'06, July 15, 2006

[Yaggie1]

Hey !! Why did I get bumped off the "in" list ?? Am I not welcome anymore since the P5 is down ?? I thought I would roll along in the wife's Envoy............

J/K. Have fun guys. Sux that I can't make it. Once were up and running again we need to plan another one.........

 

[goldwing2000]

If you think you can keep up in the Envoy without rolling it over, you're more than welcome to come.

Motor Mount: Done
Brake lines: nope
Grass: damn rain

Those who have 2-way radios, don't forget to bring them.

 

[Yaggie1]

I'd love to give it a shot, but..............................................no.

You could always drive out and ride with somebody else. There's always somebody going solo. (dunno)

Well, I got the brakes changed out tonight, but for some reason the E-brake doesn't work anymore, and im not too thrilled about that. Other than that, the brakes seem to work alright. We'll see tomorrow.

Also, got the car aligned today, and everything was all in spec. The worst I had was 2 tenths of a degree out of toe, thats it.

Just thought I'd be the first to say that was FUN!!!! and here are some pics that I took.

Glad you had a good time!

I took the liberty of blurring out my license plate in that first pic (now the last pic). (thumb)

Oh, and how's this for irony: I finally broke down and tried to install my SS brake lines... and they don't fit. The end that attaches to the steel line is flared the wrong way. Thanks, Corksport!

Had a great time like always, who knew I could drift so good (LOL). Here are just a couple shots I took too.

 

[thejoker0409]

The two guys in the Red Line took some wonder if we'll see it.

It's amazing what you can do when you put your mind to it... or when it just catches you by surprise.

It was even better the 2nd time around! Looking forward to the next one!

So it looks like Chris (jdub) didn't spend any time upgrading the suspension on his car since the drive, the sig tells the story lol.

 

[goldwing2000]

Hey folks,

I'm going to go ahead and call the next one for Sunday, August 13th. I'll post a link to the thread when it's ready.

Gotta start somewhere...I think I'll wait to lower it untill next spring, I'd like to go through one winter without having to dodge every little piece of ice in the road (Right Dave).(burnout)

 

[DaveB]

That is a good call Chris. Here is what can happen when you don't miss the large chunks of ice/snow in the middle of the road. OUCH!!!!! This was even before I lowered it.

 

[michiganspeed]

sorry i missed it. Had some family stuff come up.

I will try forn the next one.

Hey sorry to respond so slow. Thanks again for letting me/us join again, I had another good time. As for the video, I'll see what my brother Corey is doing with that. I don't know if he started putting anything together yet, but I'll bug him to get on that (we're not at the same residence at the moment). If he does put together a video of sorts, I'll see if he can blur some plates out. I'll send it to give it to goldwing to approve before posting it on the net anywhere.
