I won't be running, went outside to put on my DR's and was missing lugnuts. WTF. Went to Pontiac and my new ones won't be in until Tuesday.

A GTO. Because it's made in Austrailia it shares nothing in common with lug nuts used on other GM's. I took off another one and tried the auto parts stores first, but they had nothing even close.

The night kinda sucked when that dude sprayed the track and kept going all the way down the track delaying racing for over an hour.

Congrats to RPM for Adam and Katy for new bests.

Mo, that car is a bad little bitch and I will leave it at that

Whoa whoa whoa...hold on. Adam ran a new best? Someone fill me in on this. I spent quite a bit of time today discussing this car's new problems and how he was talking himself out of even going to the track.

Was it the bypass or did we find out that the new tune created more usable power? Either way, congrats and glad today looked up for you.

edit: nevermind, it was probably the heat cycling of the tires on the dyno. Only those in attendance today would believe how much rubber came off those MT's. Holy lord.
