      Wow Thain. Who's the ass? Anyway, it was nice seeing people again, meeting new people, and getting parts I wish we could've done the cruise this year, but weather and cars were not on our side this year... That being said, there will be no more working on cars during Scottfest unless it is small, non important. I think everyone can agree on that. It was unfortuate to what happened to Ryan and the Marauder. As was Jason and the Vic.

        I had a great time. Thanks to Scott and Skip for hosting, Thain for the cables (I still have to ship my turntable up to you), Nate for bringing my old mufflers for a great price, and it was GREAT to meet new mangs, and hang out with the old ones.

        I suppose Matt redeemed himself a bit with finding the dash trim. He still needs his head mashed in, though.

                  Made it home Tuesday evening in a red Hyundai Sonata. Definitely NOT the car I left in. Shit.
                  On the way to the airport to drop it off, I discovered that id had an ECO Mode button. Good thing I found that after the 350 mile trip.

                  Anyways, heading down on Saturday to recover the Marauder. Picked up a fan from my buddies yard for free. And I can has spare parts from my other two transmission. I'm sure I can figure this one out.
                  Besides, FUCK YO THROTTLE BODY Tom!!!!!!! (And your spark plugs)
                  I must go faster next year. Like 14.2psi...

                      The junkyard fresh valve body did not solve the Marauders problems Ryan?

                        no, same issue as previously as far as it was described to me. I'm just wondering if the valve body not being torqued properly allowed fluid to leak out on one side, and maybe did some internal damage.

                            my vic is still there in Scott's capable hands. it's getting a new (to it) engine and some other drive train upgrades (tc, rear gears, tl). Can't wait to get the vic back. It'll be really nice to drive.

                            As far as Matt goes... he needs to get his head out of his own ass and take 2 seconds to think about what he's about to do. I'm pretty laid back, but he finally got on my nerves getting in the way while I was trying to work on my car. new rule for Matt: take one step back and ask yourself, "am I going to get in trouble for doing/saying this?"

                            For the most part, I found Matt to be excitable about cars and wanting to show off his and other's mods to his own car (John: that one-touch mod works great). The JBL system is pretty good. makes me wish I had the 88 with me to show off my sound system. Maybe another time. Not sure I'll be recovered from this Scottfest to make next year. I may try SoF though.

                              There's absolutely no working on cars at SoFest. We mostly just get drunk, lol...

                                if I come to SoF, I'll definitely be in the vic again. I will not be bringing something that might want to break... and after Scott's done with the vic, it will be full of awesome for at least another 100K miles.

                                and yes, the Dublin DP is awesome. I will be getting more soon. And it will be brought with if I show up to any events.
