So many of us have moved from the Acura brand. Good thing though, we all love cars.

We no longer have Acuras but this forum is second to none! The Caddy forums are sooooo damn boring. Mainly old farts who act like old farts. Alot of 'Rice' bashing over there too.

It was definitely the heat, and MattG running nitrous in a straight line didn't help either!!

At Crater Lake, the lake level elevation is 6178 ft. But we'll be looking down at it. So what is the vista point elevation?

It's a little on the dirty side for Dennis since he always comes to meets with his car spotless.

I haven't washed my car in 2 weeks b/c of the rain. My front wheels are pretty much coated with a thick layer of dirt and brake dust. It's supposed to rain through the wknd here in Seattle so I really don't know when I'll get to wash her. Guess I'll bring a bucket and soap.

Don't feel bad, the last time I washed my car was before the last meet. I'll be picking it up tomorrow after 2 1/2 weeks of missing it. So no telling how dirty it is now. But maybe i'll be able to drive fast enough to blow the dirt off.

Important Hotel Info!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

We're set with the Windmill Inn.

The final rate is $63.95 per night.

They have FREE wireless internet in all rooms and a fantastic FREE breakfast, so that makes the price even better. This hotel goes for over $90 a night if you don't do your homework!

Just call 541-779-0050 and ask for the "Devery Group Rate". Pick your room type and give them a credit card to hold the room and you're set.

She's holding 10 rooms for now and I can increase, but we lose the rooms and the rate after Monday, so if you're going, please book today or ASAP!

For anyone looking to save $$, you could ride shotgun and split a room with someone else and share costs.

O.K Now let's see some of you maybe's to YES!!

Hotel Reservations Confirmed

1. Red Rider
2. Hammerman
3. NSX-Tuner
4. TEH Z YO
5. Allout
6. Seattle CLS

My car doesn't like to be launched hard. Serious wheel-hop...though that won't stop me from doing spirited launches. Part of the problem is the independent rear, another part are the stupid run-flats. They do work though - I had a tire sensor go off and it was showing only 14psi in the passenger rear tire. Went outside and the tire looked perfectly fine from the outside. Checked the pressure and, yep, 14 psi. Had a nail in it.
