I'll be up there too. At least this week I won't have to pay since last week was rained out.

Lets just hope that it doesn't rain again.

Well, seeing as I leave for college Sun, and I have to work Sat morn at 7:30, meaning I have to get up at like 5am.

I think I do need to go.

Tell me what time you want to meet at Mr. Tire and we'll go.

Sweetness. I'll bring my VHS-C camera too. I'll see if Tommy can go, but I doubt it.

Well, jichniow said he would cruise with us, but he likes to get there early around 6 or so to get in a few practice runs.

So, I was thinkin we could meet at the Mr. Tire in Prince Frederick. It's on the left hand side coming down (joe). I figure if we meet there by 5pm we'll be fine. Is that a go?

Well, I can't go, I went to do a simple brake job and I have to replace the drivers side wheel cylinder because its leaking. I think both of my front calipers are just about shot. I broke 3 c-clamps trying to push the drivers side caliper in, in the past I could do it with a big pair of channel locks

Did you try to compress it with the bleeder valve open? Autozone had the loaded front calipers (capliers, pads, hardware) for $65 for both sides! Worth a look, hope this helps!

Huh, I've never ran my car there, so I don't know what you mean. I hear it's supposed to rain tomorrow.

Doh! That stinks! As an alternative, try just taking the master cyl cap off, so there is not as much pressure to push against.

PS, are you in for the next gathering/bbq? :rockon:

I usually end up parking down where the 'old' tech inspection area is. (For those who haven't been up there before, it's at the fast end of the track.) There usually aren't very many people parked there. That and every car that runs has to drive right by us if we park there. Maybe we'll get a few more ThirdGen's that way.

No, by the fast end of the track I mean near the finish line...where you'll be going fast.

And with that new cam, intake and all I can't imagine that you'll be going all too slow Mark.

You'd think. But I'm hopin for low 14s which I still think is slow. These crappy 8.5:1 compression heads are killing me.

Sounds like you put a LO3 in and not a cam,
new plugs, wires, set your timing and see if you get your 350 back
