So did you get your scooter home OK?

Just so you all know, as I sit here, I am drinking an A&W rootbeer float. No.... Not a Root Beer with a scoop of scrumdilliumptious vanilla ice cream - but a shitty root beer float in a bottle. I highly recommend passing on these if you see them in the store.

should i do it?
i've always wanted a CF hood, and mine is in pretty bad condition
it doest not show you it pic. it would be nice too see what it look like first. most of the time i think black car with cf hood or trunk its not noticeable, but that's what people wanted. some time the cf color is lighter then the black car so it looks funny. make sure it black cf so it matches with your car.

As for the CF hood - I'd get it in a heartbeat. There's lots of shit that I would get actually. Only problem is 1) my allowance has decreased drastically since I moved out, and 2) 3G shit is way too spendy. Ask Jermaine and RTL....lol No $99 headers and $375 carbon hoods for us

lol. same here after carpc, chrome rims and sub box thing, my allowance is decreased too. there is not really much cheap part for our car. even test pipe cost 200bucks. and its doesn't look like it a stainless steel at all.

Got the scoot home, had to put it back together and I need to put a new back tire on it, but it is in the parking garage. I went down last night and did a nice burnout on it .. The garage was pretty stinky from the 2-stroke exhaust and then the burning rubber.

Can't wait to get that hot rod out on the streets!! This winter I am going to have to put in the 70CC kit that came with it as well as a new gearing kit that I have yet to buy. Just another project for the Shop!

just wondering, is someone going their early to reserve a spot for us? Cause I remember doing my kids birthday there and it was jam packed by 10am. We should definitely get someone out their around 9am to reserve a spot for all of us. I might not be able to make it till later otherwise I would go first.

For something as important as your crank pulley, I wouldnt mess around with knock-off brands, but that's just me.

For sure you get what you pay for . You can get one not properly balanced and vibrations can tear up your engine
