Re: Sacramento GTG - Lunch/Autorama Sat 2/12

That was a good little GTG. Thanks to the guys that actually brought their Thirdgens.

Heres some of my fav's. I liked the Audio ATV w/ sub under the seat & especially the LS supercharged sand rail, can you say $100k

You saw Outatime GTA post about our next possible GTG's.

It'd be nice to go on the Santa cruz run wouldnt it? Is the car going?

Which weekend in March is good for the majority?

Arden, or maybe Truxel area this time.

Hooters + Drive Angry movie?? (another non-3rd gen required meet)

We'll save the first official 3rd gen meet for the track in late March, or April maybe.

Re: Sacramento GTG - Lunch/Autorama Sat 2/12

Well it slips more. Which I expected. But it seems to pull harder, and the rpms dont seem to drop off as much between the shifts. I remember reading something about that before. So far very happy. I just hate dealing with the tv cable.

Re: Sacramento GTG - Lunch/Autorama Sat 2/12

2800 stall vigilante 9.5 inch converter. I picked it up new in the box for 350 a lil over a month ago. It was brand new, got all paperwork with it and not a drop of fluid was in the converter. Once I am going its fine. It just slips into 1st and that is going to eat up a lot of fuel because I mostly do in town driving.
