This year I think it's a Sunday, whereas the last two were Friday & Sat so the crowd might not be as big but I'm sure it'll still be a nice turnout.

If you have a meet in the spring, there's always Mardi Gras

Nelson,

Got all those problems fixed with one part . . as you suspected. It wasn't crossed connectors, it was a bad connection with the . . . of course most expensive solenoid you would need. See link for item '6' - 28250-P6H-024 SOLENOID ASSY., LINEAR - I did get it from Honda for $182, so a bit less than list.

Anyway, still need to tweak a few things to make sure everything is okay. Considering the brakes, struts, ball joints, axles, front bearings, timing belt kit and rear main were all done at the same time there's a lot of opportunity for issues.

Hey does anyone know of a nice looking steering wheel cover, my leather is peeling and I need something to cover it. I was thinking about this one, but in all black, and perforations all over. http://www.aumauto.com/acura-tl-c-europref.html

Actual, to contradict myself, does anyone know where I can get the a-spec steering wheel frame? That or I saw that some members went to Dallas Custom Steering wheels, and I'll see how much it would be to get my wheel wrapped with like 1/8 thickness leather, maybe get some perforations as well.

Yea clublexus was gonna host a drive there. Actually I know a guy that lives next to that area that always tries to drag me out there lol. Hes a pretty cool guy so I am down if we go. He says make sure your brakes and tires are in check though because there are some areas where there are no rails and its not fun losing control there.

Excellent drive the S2000 club does a Boston Mountains drive and we take the Talamina over.
Awesome twisties and fun driving.

Do it quick before all the Harley riders take over the back roads doing 30 mph looking at the leaves.

I more than likely won't be parking in the show. There's looking to be a chance of rain this way Thursday & Friday night, the 2 days I was planning on cleaning the car up.

You want numbers to look pretty or realistic. We have plenty of dynoes depends on which one you prefer...Only two dynoes I prefer are dyno dynamics or mustang...not a big fan of dynojet.
