Probably not

He hasnt got his carb back from the shop yet and he doesnt think his car will be ready by then. If it is I will definitely let you know. You might have to settle for whooping my *** instead

gp001 Where in O.C. are you? Why didnt you come to the Thursday night hangout after Giovannis? It got HUGE for a while but the cops raided it 2 weeks ago. I dont know if people are going back yet or not.

I think I'll tag along too.

gp001 · 07-31-2001, 10:41 PM

Fastang- We rolled through there a few weeks ago and it was all imports. We went and had a coffee and rolled back through and it was imports plus a few Camaros. We've been getting the cars in our little group ready for various outings (like the mountain cruise). I'm still trying to figure out a hydraulic clutch setup that I can fabricate to work with my car. I keep reading about you guys going here and there and would like to hook up with you guys. I did go to the big Carlsbad thing earlier this year (as a spectator

), but didn't know who anybody was. I saw Sky run his car, but didn't know it was him until after he posted his videos. I had an awesome view of his first run. I was up by the tower (shack). Man did that thing look brutal when he shifted. Sooner or later I'll hook up with you guys

ed1371 · 08-01-2001, 12:18 AM

You should have come down and talked to some of us! I was wearin my ultra cool MW t-shirt that day...

Irony:
Sky: "hey you can make a pass on my slicks if you want!"

/me looks at his 5 lug rims...DOH!

fastang · 08-01-2001, 11:55 AM

gp001, Lemme know next time your little crew goes out and I'll join ya if its ok with you guys.

gp001 · 08-02-2001, 12:03 PM

Fastang- To be honest with you, you probably wouldn't want to run with us. I'm the only Ford in the group. Most are F-bodies or Vettes. I have to deal with a lot of anti Ford crap, but then they always say "Oh, but not yours" as I give em the "OH YEA?" look. Most of us will probably be at Fontana so I'll meet up with you there, and who knows maybe you wont find them as obnoxious as I do

We really don't have any cruises or anything planned until Fontana (at least for me- I'm hoping to have all the 6 speed/hydraulic clutch stuff figured out). If we do anything I'll send you a PM or e-mail

fastang · 08-02-2001, 02:23 PM

Yeah, I hear a lot of anti Ford crap too. I just dont let it get to me. I have a decent group of friends with late model F bods as well. Mine are usualy pretty respectable and dont talk **** . Oh well.

Well, I can't go the 8th but if anyone is going to go on Sunday the 9th I'll go. It's on the schedule.

gp001 · 08-03-2001, 06:13 PM

Fastang - You hang around with car guys and they DON'T talk **** ??? Wow, what's that like? Every group of car guys I've ever been around has talked **** . Ya, my friends are the most disrespectful group of azz monkeys I know. Even though most are non-Ford guys, they know their **** and they know how to drive (that's important when they're behind you

), so they're fun to let hang around me. Our little group is pretty damn funny, but absolutely brutal at times.
Does "Oh Well" mean you don't want to hook up at Fontana?

fastang · 08-04-2001, 12:57 AM

gp001, No I meant Oh well about meeting up with you guys whenever you go out. You politely made it seem as though I wouldnt fit in or you wouldnt want me tagging along. I can respect that.

But I defintiely want too meet up at Fontana. I will introduce you to the F bod guys that I hang out with. They know a lot of 5.0 guys and run with them constantly. I dyoed with them. Unfortunatley at the time thy were about NINETY hp ahead of me. But they didnt talk **** at all. Just said positive **** and helped me pick out parts.
