i am going, hope to see you guys out there...
on another very, very strange note-
I was at taco bell last night meeting up with this girl, and we were both in our cars talking, and the way the parkinglot works is the building, first row of spots, 2 lanes for cars, and then more spaces (this is were me and the girl are) a minivan is parked straight in front of me with 2 lanes between us.. he starts backing up and at first it was normal, then i thought ok he's going pretty fast, then he better start braking, then i jumped out of my car as he hit it at probablky 10 or 15 iin reverse.. i had lights on and bass going and he managed to back up 20+ feet and hit me. luckily license plate took hit, but i was just blown away

Sorry I wasn't able to make it guys, I just got back in town a few minutes ago. Sounds like it wasn't much of a meet anyway?

Maybe we should do something on November 1 or 2 at my house? Then it doesn't matter what the weather is like since we will all be inside.

Who's down?

Sweet! We can just kick it in the garage and talk about cars, or we can cruise upstairs, BBQ, play GTP on the PS3, shoot some pool and just generally hang out.

I'm not positive that I could do it, but we'll see. I'm having a 2-day kegger at my house on Halloween and Saturday. Sunday is football, but we can see how it all works out I guess.

You know I'm down, and I can bring my wheel to have good 2 player battles.

I wonder if there is any way to dump my game to a usb so we can use the formula car? I'm not ps3 savy


On a shittier note... I somehow got this damn 'XP Antispyware 2009' program on my computer which is some lame rogue spyware that tells you these fake warnings every 10 seconds about how your computer is infected. I spend most of yesterday trying to get it off my computer and was ready to just throw the whole thing off my balcony... and it is still on there. such a pain.

I deal with that one all the time. Download a program called trojan remover (http://www.simplysup.com/). This is a demo version, but it will work this time. I believe it is a 30 day trial. This will fix your problems in 10 minutes. Pretty slick little program actually.

Cool, I read that malwarebytes should clean it up, and I already have that on the computer at home. I'll give it a try and if it doesnt work I'll hit up simplysup for sure.

I wish there was a revenge system for the assholes that create these programs... Like if they get caught, everyone who got the program got to punch them in the gut once.

I'm going to have to make my summer/winter wheel swap soon too. Not too terribly excited by it either, I like the way my summer wheels look on the car better.

I don't know, that's an awful tall order. I don't think I can help you out there.

Yeah, no problems, I'm most likely not going to have a TL much longer anyway, no need to discriminate on cars. Just cause you don't have taste...

I only say this because I have raced a G35 sedan and won, but I'd beat you.

It would probably be easier that way, but if I had to do it in my garage it wouldnt be the end of the world.

I do need to put a really good cleaning on the 18"s before I put them away for the winter, that might be easier in the heated garage.

I'd like to race your car. Last time i dynoed i made 227whp and i just added a mod that is suppose to add 10whp at a minimum and 15whp at a max.. so it would be an interesting race. and i only say this because i pulled a newer gen TL on the freeway...

Is your car auto?
