sorry guys.... I called this morning for a table and they only had the large 10+ person table open at 6:30pm and 8:30pm. I picked 8:30pm. I figured 8:30pm was a safe time since we've waited an hour for a table. I should have left the time at 7:30pm and told everyone there is an hour wait!!

Rob,

http://www.bendpak.com/product_info.isg?products_id=757 should link you to it... They have a weird scheme to link to things on the site. I tried the "copy link location" and it gave me the same binary thing as yours... weird web developers, thinkin' they're all cool by making the links hard to copy!

In one of the pictures, they removed the front-to-back rails and the car is just supported by the corners, although the scissor contraption is still on either side, it looks like enough room to manuver in the center.

Upon closer inspection- I think I was interntionally mislead by the picture- either way- it looks like a good lift.

Mike

Fantastic to meet everybody. I had a great time. Was neat running into a group going home on the parkway I look forward to seeing you all again soon. I'll bring Nicole next time, too.

BTW Bluewasp, how exactly do you spell that "pshht" waste gate sound?

That nasty blue C6 made me actually like the new ones...

Looks like the center space is open. I would go with that model if you are seriously considering buying one and have LIMITED space. Otherwise a 2 post would be best. That model can’t be move easily, doesn’t have the wheels.

Sorry about that Rob, for some reason my passenger window would not go down. It still doesn't today. I was hoping to get another "pshht" in there.

WHAT nasty blue C6? I only saw the one that I was driving and I am not sure that the word "nasty" is the correct description. With all the available horsepower and torque I think a more appropriate word is "awesome".
