So thanks. A bunch. For welcoming me into the group. Treating me as one of your own and being a really awesome car community.

Much love. I'll still be on xbox and I'll still have the same cell number in Missouri so you'll alll know how to reach me. My company has some big things in the works and you'll all still get hooked up lol. And anyone that wants to come visit, you're all more than welcome. Just let me know.

But really, thanks guys for coming out. Both today and at K1 and Steelhead on Saturday, meant more than I could actually put into words.

On a completely unrelated, yet totally revelant note, Hobbs is still a homo.

:-( sad

Hey guys, made it to st louis this morning. 1900 miles on the car, flew through some southern trails in the car. Car was absolutely amazing through the whole trip. Not a drop of burned oil, ewg pulls in every city for sure, made my presense known!!! Lol

Excited to be here, gonna spend tomorrow chilling in the city and visiting some houses to rent and gonna see what i want to do.

Car is like an exotic here, they dont see a bunch of em here. We literally saw 1 modded subaru the entire way across the country. People in STL are waving, giving me thumbs up and staring all over. Its a pretty cool feeling.

ANYWAY, hope all is well with you guys. Wednesday is going to be weird since I wont be going to a meet at all. I wish i was there to hang out with you guys.

Also, got about 25.5mpg across the entire trip. Best MPG was 31 and got 357 miles on a tank. But that was the longest leg, on the 2nd day, we didn't stop in texas at all. Haha

Glad you made it new meat. Hope you got some fine dining in when you stopped in all those fine states, and bought some magnets. They werent waving because they liked the car... they just liked the way the new meat smelled...

Bearing in the timing belt tensioner went... and took the timing belt with it. I did valve and piston damage (just one) and they should be done with it by the end of this week, or beginning of next.. oh and about 4k worth of parts and labor.

I miss my car so much..

I knew what had happened lol. I was just wondering when you were getting it back. Good to hear it'll be home soon.

yeah.. should be home soon. hopefully

filthy · 02-06-2013, 01:15 AM

No car no good!...i spent 50$ on a taxi ride to work. I know you guys would say get a rental. They need 300$ down + credit check and the cost of the week. That would put me in overdraw status. I was like tough it 2 days(off thurs/fri) then pick up rental car on Friday. So no meet for me.

HicksBrewer · 02-06-2013, 02:34 PM

lol.. three regulars of this meet have MIA cars right now

Anyone else imagine this looks a lot like new meats road trip??

preacher#1 · 02-07-2013, 02:51 AM

My used federals 595-RS decided to give up due to my aggressive rear camber (hi jag).
As tempting as the new dunlops are.. New RS3's will be put on mañana.

Hopefully all of us will have healthy cars and be ready for some spring racing at el toro... Speakon el toro, I miss new meat already as the backside of his ears were just starting to dry.

Checkout the BfG Rival tires way better than Rs3's

And why do you have so much rear camber? you like understeering?

Yes, I'm sure you've actually driven your car on a track with both those tires and have real first world knowledge. Keep your mouth shut web racer.

Preacher, from what I've heard there's some damn good auto x out here. I'm pretty excited.

Haha exactly what I was thinking.

I guess he's tracked JE's car more than JE and he knows what different camber adjustments will do for the fozzy.

preacher#1 · 02-07-2013, 03:01 PM

My first replacement tire on the foz was bfg g force sport. I will never buy a bfg tire again.

As far as rear camber. I have played with tons of set-ups and car handles better now than it ever has. -2.7 is prolly a bit much for dd but on the track it helps turn in and getting the rear end to rotate.

I will post pics of the Feds... They were trashed!!!

Subiesaurus Rex · 02-07-2013, 03:29 PM

The only people I know of who have had g-force tires have sworn they would never buy another BFG tire. That being said those tires look pretty decent and have a decent price - although I still paid about $50 less for my RS3's which I like very much.

preacher#1 · 02-07-2013, 03:51 PM

Yeah I was desperate and needed something ASAP. I feel fortunate to get them in one day... $920 m/b tax included. I would have given new star specs a try, but wanted to run what clay runs so I can see if I can make up 1-2 secs.

So far the foz has had..
G force sport
Bridgestone re-01r
Dunlop star specs
Federal 595 RS
Hankook rs3

That's a lot of rubber! Almost as many pipes that have been on Hobbs rear end.
