Trying to get a final determination on who's attending for the Ruidoso cruise this weekend. If you're on FB but I haven't "friended" you, I have created an event that anyone can be added to. I'm going to call the lodge again tomorrow once I have a better idea of the number of ppl/rooms needed to see what discount they can offer us.

For sure. But "the regular gas is so much cheaper!!!" LOL Maybe we'll have to have a talk about that at the CCNM meeting this Thursday.

We won't be able to make it Genny. I have Navy this weekend that I can't resked since I'm once a QTR now. ugh.

Lemme know if you guys plan on coming up this week. Vince mentioned Fastinos.

Glad to be home. Phx was awesome...but intense.

Especially when I lost my mid pipes coming out of In and Out in Tempe and had to drive home yesterday with straight Long Tubes. Can you say deaf?

Huh?

Yeah that shit sucks. I mean, literally, I didn't have anything after the headers. Try driving north on I-17 from Phx to Flag where you are usually accelerating the entire trip. Damn that was harsh. LOL I'll be walking the rest of the week until something new comes in.

Thinking the MBRP 3" system with the GFX Tips since I still have that on there.

Unless I end up with something fresh and new....Cue ZZTom.

So where's all this rain everybody has been crying about? I'm ready to see it.

I've been by your place a few times.....only time I seen real work was when you rolled those wheels and tires to my ride. LMAO

Yeah, you could say that. And everything attached to the rear of the X Pipe. LOL I was trying to be nice coming out of a driveway that was definitely not something I should have been taking head on. There were cars lined up to come in so I just slowly pulled out of the exit.....got caught on what I thought was the Hotchkiss Chassis Max Brace. Gave it some gas and bam....guess it had already pulled the catback out from the race pipes...then crushed them pretty nice between the bottom of the brace and street.

If that tunnel brace would not have held them up, I'm sure it woulda torn up the bottom of the car something bad. I have to laugh at it. Had a headache all day yesterday from that awesome open header noise on the way home.

But boy did she sound great! LOL

Was there somebody local asking me for the door panels?? The ones with the ABL in them....

Anybody who might want a front GFX piece, make me a deal on my old SS Fascia and come pick it up. Gas money deal stuff and it's yours.

Note to self....if you need (C6) Carlise Blue Paint, you're screwed. Only available in max gallon packs from GM. Paint stores cannot mix it. They can "match" it but we all know how that goes.

Arby's on Paseo has some of the best Arby's in town but the lady at the counter has the personality of a cinder block.

Woot!

It's gonna need repairs but its got the gm gfx front piece on it that sells for $710. Lol with some v attention, it'll be sweet once again. I just aint got time for it like I thought I would.

Thats to bad, I would have traded my center exhaust rear diffuser for it if it was perfect shape.

For my front Fascia and GFX? Hell....I'll fix it if I have to. You don't want to get rid of your front for a SS with GFX piece. You got the wicked cool Danny Bally scoops man. I dig that front end!!

Been curious to see what you wanted for your fascia.......might need it sooner than later.
