Default Denver group Role Call....

Was just wondering where everyone is at and what everyone is up to.
We are still in the same place. Marci just got out of here cast from a broken foot. I have taken on a new project, street rodding a 1936 4 door chevy sedan. Logan is growing like a weed, he also wants to know what Nelson is doing? ...Ed, Marci & Logan

Chime in everyone when you read this thread...you know who you are!!!

were looking forward to our first spring run and a POSSIBLE BBQ....

Hi everyone. Were still here, everything is pretty much the same here.

Janice had to have a small tumor removed from the pinky finger on her right hand a few days ago; she’s fine but in some pain.
I haven’t driven my ZO6 since October because of the crap on the roads.
I hope it won’t be long before the first group run, maybe the Air force Academy?
Terry & Janice

Still here. Impatiently waiting for spring. Unfortunately, I am looking for a new gig. My position at the church I was working at got eliminated mid-January. If you know of somebody looking for an audio engineer or IT guy let me know.

Thanks

Gary and Brenda

I'm using the non-Vette season for some more enhancements to car. I decided not to be lazy this time and do the work myself. I am in the midst of a cam change, roller rocker installation, and some other goodies.

I was never really happy with the cam that I was running so I brewed up my own specs and had Comp grind it for me. We'll just see how that works out...

Does Northern Colorado people count?

I got sick starting at the end of October, started with Pneumonia, then the H1N1 flu, 2 weeks later I had shingles which was just after our semi annual MX vacation and then 2 weeks after that I got a blood clot in my kidney.. Blah!

I am fine now, although I am on blood thinners for 6 mo and have some kidney pains that were a result of some of my L kidney dying from the loss of blood.

I was ready for 2010! As far as the Vette goes, I am fighting an issue with the active handling which I thought I had fixed a week ago.. So, I am hoping with the help of my tuner we can get it squared away. I am signed up for one track day in July at Bandimere just to see what it does with this setup, although I am probably going to be converting it over to e85 just for the added 50-60+ rwhp that most are experiencing..

I am up for more cruises and GTG's this year, I think I only put on about 1500 miles on it last year.. It is too nice of a car just to sit in the garage..

Hope everyone is well and that we can hook up soon!

Hey all,

Renee, Jordan and I are doing well. Finally got a job in December, managing the credit and fraud department at Qwest. Very happy I don't have to sell the car. Looking forward to many runs this spring and summer. Ed, I need your help doing a few things. Tell Logan hi for me. Jordan also says hi.

Look forward to seeing everyone soon. As Jordan says Vroom Vroom!

Checking in. Put Z51 rotors on yesterday, did the black halo and tint roof this fall.

No other mods planned, maybe add a HUD.....still trying to decide. Been trying to drive the car at least once a week through the winter- it's been a challenge.

We need cars and coffee in the winter or something.

Sorry It's been so long I forgot about you. It's tough getting old. But it is always good to see you.
Any other Blue cars I forgot.

Ed, it was good to see you today, the 36' looks like it’s coming along. I hope our surgery on your truck was a success.

Things are good thus far! I am planning on putting some miles on her this year, as last year I think I only drove it around 200 miles total.. Next weekend it is going to my tuner to get the intermittent active handling issue and belt slip issue resolved.. Looking forward to putting some miles on it!

I'm alive a well. spent most of the fall hunting ringnecks and working, now I'm on ski's when I'm not in the office.

I usually drive the Z to the office every day there is not snow on the ground, but with an employee out with a new baby girl, My wife/office manager and I drve to work in her L92 Denali all week long.

The Good: roads haven't been the nicest,

The BAD: Just finished a ported fast LSXR 102 intake install and still haven't been able to do a WOT blast w/o loosing traction above 90 MPH

going to try and get my new RPS cutch installed and get some miles on it so I'm ready for the opening NASA event at PPIR in April.

Got the power steering control valve for the 79. waiting for a break in the weather and schedule to put it on. I should then be able to keep it running straight on the road. I may even do a few cruises this year.

I know who I am most days Does that count?

Over winter acquired some bolt-ons to play with. z06 exhaust - including exhaust manifolds and a honker-style intake. Very little driving since Christmas anxious to restore the grin.
