Anyone signed up for the Mercedes Test drive in Ennis next weekend (Oct. 23)?
I signed up, but I am still trying to see if I can make it up there that weekend.

I've got an '04 TSX today while my car's getting some TLC. It's a really nice car, but what a fucking dog! "Hello Acura, this is the TSX calling -- can I please get some fucking torque?!?!?!?"

went to a Toyota event today at the Ballpark in Arlington, just heard about it last week. It was pretty cool, not very crowded at all. It was very original, you played games with the cars. We played red light green light, capture the flag, relay race/beat the clock, and car dodge ball. There was also a regular dodge ball area set up, that was fun as hell! We cleaned up and kicked a lot of ass! For every game or car event you got points depending on your performance and then got to get something at the end with your points. I got a free DVD, Starsky and Hutch, and a friend of mine got ESPN 2K5 cause he got more points. Very cool event, it's going on again tomorrow too and you can still register if you want. http://putitinplay.com

Long story short, I put in eibach springs and the car pulled to the left only when just above idle. Also, the back looked slammed and the front didn't look like it was dropped at all. So, I payed the stealership to put in the Comptech srpings. The pulling stoped, but it still looked the same. So, for the past week and some, they have been trying to figure out what the hell is going on. They have measured, they fiddled, and did just about everything else they could do but fix the issue. Then, the tech who was working on my car just up and left one day. So, finally, the talked with comptech who is sending a new set off springs. Who knows if this will solve the issue
. It is getting frustrating though cause for the money I have spent on these damn springs, I could have been rolling on the Tein SS coilovers. If the new springs don't solve the issue, I will just have the stealership take them back and I will get the coilovers. Blagh, sucks.Anyways, when is the next meet???
