  1. Very nice cars. I think I remember seeing your white miata at an autox or two last year?

    great WOOT!!

    Search avsforums for that dvd player. Every home theatre nerd in the universe thinks it is the greatest dvd player to ever spin a disc. Without searching, I want to say it's normally around $180 or so.
  3. Do you think they told the dealership "I'll send you this cashier's check for 800k, then you send me the motors, and 200k back."? Scamming dealers FTW!
  4. Thought I would start up a thread for the event this coming weekend. Event is at National Trails, who's going? I haven't autox'd since the June 15th, and I'm getting pretty antsy... Are we going to do the CR PAX class? I don't really want to organize it, but I'd be more than willing to calculate points totals and keep results.
  5. Welcome and very cool car. I've often thought about picking one of those up as my daily. I'd imagine the SC would make it that much more fun. Along with everyone else, I'm wondering about power numbers.
  6. Polarization basically means that light can only pass through in certain directions. I can't say exactly why colors change and whatnot (off the top of my head), but it has to do with the windshield only letting certain wavelengths through, and the same with your glasses, adding up to a purple color. Also, ever noticed what happens when you tilt your head while looking at an lcd screen with polarized lenses on? The LCD also has a polarizer, so when your lenses match the polarizer in the lcd, the screen disappears.

    Whats up

    Geez, are you rockin' snow tires on that thing? Ehh, +1 for almost having my name...
  8. An expensive lens compared to a $20 lens is like night and day difference in clarity and effectiveness. Maybe you don't see it, that doesn't mean it's not true. Using the same analogy as above, some people can't tell the difference between a Ford and a BMW... does that mean the BMW isn't worth more money? TimTaylor - it isn't hard to find a nice pair at sunglass hut for around $100. I also bought a pair of $40 polarized sg's from fossil once, and they were pretty good quality. Oh, you also could check out the sunglass hut outlet store at the Prime Outlets at Jeffersonville.
  9. I have a pair of mid 90's oakley eye jackets that I sent back to oakley because the frame broke right after I bought them. They gave me a brand new pair, and I never wore them afterwards. Found them in the basement a few months ago, still in my oakley soft-shell case, haha. Also, I bought a pair of ray-ban warriors a few weeks ago. Expensive sunglasses ftw.
  10. I'm going through the same thing right now. Found a great deal on a car. I email the guy with a few questions, and ask if he is free the following night. He responds to the questions, but doesn't say anything about meeting up. I have since sent him two emails asking him if I can come look at it, and no response. WTF is wrong with people?
  11. Yeah, I've heard of la bamba... great song. Or did you mean La Bamba's the mexican restaurant? Burritos as big as your head! j/k. That thing looks badass. I'd probly choose either a celica gt-s/Lotus Elise engine (I forget the name) or maybe a hayabusa engine...
  12. Also, I believe if you are in line, and cannot get through in time (or they run out of food), they will give you a gift card for a free burrito.
  13. Yeah, Bailey's and coffee is a great after dinner drink. The cement mixer is the same theory as chugging an irish car bomb. Gotta get it down before the bailey's curdles. Difference is, car bombs taste like heaven, cement mixers taste like butt.

    Car Wash ; )

  15. Yup, that's also the kid who autocrossed once or twice last year. He thought his car was hot shit... he lost to my stock jetta on all-seasons
  16. Is that the red one that came to an autox or two last summer?
  17. That's cool, we can go back and include the GASS event also... now I have a 13 point lead J/k, I know you got those sticky little tires now. This CR PAX should be fun :thumbup:
  18. Haha, jfwy. I'd only be 10 points behind ya if we started the CR PAX class last weekend
  19. Ha, I haven't seen that. I'll be sure to drive through if I see a game going on
  20. Must have been nice getting a running start :bs:. I PAX'd 38th, which is by far my best PAX. I think I'm finally taming my 100hp monster.
  21. Thinning or recieting? My hair is naturally very thin, and unfortunately started running away from my forehead around age 18. If you are thinning, then there are a lot of options... if recieting, just shave it. x2 on the Nioxin. I have used it for a few years now, and before I started shaving my noggin, it really thickened things up. If you really are serious, I believe rogain and the likes are actually pretty good products.
  22. I'd be down for that. We could even award points like a regular solo class, and have a CR PAX winner at the end of the year.
