Damn good luck with that.

There used to be a ton of shops here in the Raleigh area that would pass you but the stingy ass DMV put some of their own employees in the shops to monitor the inspection process. Call it a "daily audit" I guess.

Good luck.

Yeah, there was a big crackdown on inspections after the wonderful Raleigh News & Disturber found people were passing all day with failing cars.

Uh, I'm not near the mountains...you need a new map. It's usually warmer here than Raleigh .

EDIT: Dropping to 37 one day, and then back to the 60's.

OMG. Didn't really think much of it being New Year's Eve until I went to run my errands. Got a late start after washing the car...Total Wine...filled with morons (half of them were hot, though)...grocery store...filled with morons (only about one third were hot). On top of that, Pepboys was out of my tire shine . But hey, the car is clean .

Y'all have a safe one tonight, and watch out for the cops and drunks!

TM was as good as always...nice to see a "big" crowd tonight, though.

Still up in the air on C&C on Saturday...it's early, but the car is clean and I have nothing to do

Saturdays weather looks great, gonna get up early and throw the coilovers on and take some pics. Just blew a Tokico yesterday...oil all over my fender. Guess thats what happens when you run a bent strut for 3 months. Now lets see how long I can run on this bad axle after dropping another inch and a half......

I hope y'all have fun at C&C today! I'm up early and moving down to Campbell. I'm just moving the big stuff down today, mostly furniture, and then I'll be back tomorrow to bring the rest of the little stuff.

My nerves are shot already

Why thank you for checking in this early morning, moving sucks hairy monkey balls Getting your own place or something?

Should be leaving here shortly to C&C

You got lucky with the weather for your move considering it's January. Good luck with everything. Driving loaded down U-Haul's 70-80 down the interstate weaving in and out of traffic like you would in your car is fun .

Thanks guys.

Yeah Bee I got a place right next to school. Classes start Wednesday and a lot of people are still gone on break so I figured today and tomorrow are good days to get settled in.

Jack, my dad drove the UHaul and I drove my car Plus all of the roads down to Campbell are two lane country roads into BFE. No fun with those.
