Gene do you do the techy bit at the ORV stuff too?

Was thinking of coming down to play, but I have a mild-ish crack in the windshield, no driver's door window and no rear hatch window. It's just a rally cross though, so does that matter?

I just figured mess around with the car before I tear it apart for good heh.

It's a good thing you didn't show, Brent kicked butt in M2 with the old Christianson/Stow 323....

It was a good day, course was pretty good. I did look for you but no-show sad smiley

We might need a couple of old 14" rally tires soon though. We ran 2 old Michs on the front and very old street tires on the back.

Hey Chris, that guy Bobdobolina was not getting personal with you on SS.com thread, he was just joking with you, see you recently 'trashed" your car, you said you took it to the dump (to weigh it) so he said "How'd you remember to bring it back" Trashed-dump get it? You're the one that trashed it by flipping!

It's a joke , son I say I say a JOKE dontcha get son wasssamatta with ya I say You slow boy? (end Foghorn Leghorn)

And you were having some beers with him at CCCP Central Committe meeting.
Youse was laughing then.

Done deal, we normally just sledge hammer VW wheels out of the center of the tire....

Hey John, how's the east treatin' ya!

Yeah I figured it was me bein over-sensitive, but when its some name commin' at you out of the internetness... one thing I like about this one site here is everyone puts their real names on shit -- gotta prefer that in a mixed online/real-face-to-face sort of group.

I did trash the car -- happens from time to time as a rallyist. I have more practice at it than many, but not as much as some, and damned if it doesn't happen again but hopefully not for many years!!!!



Gene you can buy the wheels AND tires if you want winking smiley VW 4x100 14" "teardrop" mk2 GTI alloy wheels. Consider any sledgehammer marks a commitment on your part hehe.
