I had a good time today with you guys in OKC. It was a quick trip and hot as hell but fun none the less. I really needed to get away for a little while. Thanks!

I had a blast with you guys today! Brent and I actually went to high school together. And Scott you must be talking about a Honda Accord or something because I never saw you till after I stomped the brakes. Ha! For all reading, I did get a split second jump. He used to destroy me, but we're both pretty comparable now. Too bad I was getting some bad knock during the run. I think there may be a video of it floating around somewhere.

Good to see some cars getting out. I took mine to Lake of the Ozarks over the 4th. I go up 44 then 71 north to hwy 54 for a good 1.5 hours of hills ,curves and passing fun. You guys need to get a Sunday run going to Grand Lake dam for some pizza and then swing by my little condo for afternoon beers. Scott and Jason know the route.

Sorry I missed out, I'm hoping my new alternator comes in this week.

Are all the check engine lights clear now and the car running well?

Everything is good now. Crossing my fingers. I took the car to OKC and Brett at XP Racing turned off all the codess associated with the rear sensors. Hopefully good to go! Car seems to be running good now even though Brad has closed the gap with the tuning he has done on his GTR. I might have to look into some head work or the bigger "lucifer" cam that Quality Motorsports has.

On a completely unrelated note, what tint shop do you guys like in the Tulsa area? As cheap as I am there's something embarassing about getting a sunburn every time I drive my car.

Auto Distinctions has done some work for me in the past. They were the tint shop of choice from many highly regarded sources. Maybe not the cheapest, but they do good work.

Lately, I've used a guy in Owasso. He is a bit cheaper. I realize that would be quite a trek for you though.

Well, I don't have a bikini, but beer is not a problem.

I guess you might have a point there.... Every time I go to the lake I seem to get roped into fixing something or working on something though.

Ive used Auto Impressions on my GXP They are on Mingo. It was cheap and they did a great job with a lifetime warranty. He said if there is a problem they will replace it no matter what the cause. nine one eight eight zero six eight eight eight four. I need to get the vette done as well.
