The 21st was mentioned a page or two back for a meet date. A few people said it worked out for them so I just went with it since it'll work for me too. We don't have a place yet though.

It's still pretty quick, but needs a little maintenance. I've not raced it much lately, but there was a 335i that was neck-and-neck. I'm pretty sure the guy didn't know how or want to abuse it, but fun anyway.

The last time at the track it was running 14.0s, and it wasn't 100%. I'm pretty sure it had a 13.9 in it with all things hitting 100%.

Anyway, where are you located . . or maybe I might find the time to make some get together. I'm in Plano.

Well just glad to be here these days. I'm still not 100% from an early reservation at the Hotel California. That's as in the group the Eagles song call Hotel California. In otherwords, I almost bought the farm due to some weird heart arrhythmia problems where the old ticker stuck at 178 beats a minute. I guess fast is just my game.

Hey Dallas peeps.

Can anyone do me a big favor and check out a RDX at a dealership?

The place is called dallaspreowned.com

If someone could test drive it for me/look at the car I would love you long time.

Have work and stuff to do so I'm limited in time and dont wanna waste a 4 hour trip to find out its not worth it.


It is a 2007 AWD-Tech in the Grey Metallic color

That would be fun . . . I'll bring my drag radials with for anyone wanting to try them out. I used them once, but results weren't what I expected. The extra grip off the line helped with tire spin, but it actually caused a slight bog and my 60' times weren't any better than with regular tires. The problem is lack of torque off the line . . . so unless you're boosted or spraying or serious other mods they really don't help. Other than keeping you from taking 5,000 miles off your tread life.

If we are still going to meet up on the 21st, I know a parking garage that should be empty, where we could take some pictures at, then go to wherever we are going to go...

Mark,
Glad to see you still around. Only 100K. I have 167K on mine.
Hope all is well. Looking forward to seeing you sometime in the near future.
