I could hide you in my trunk but first of all I don't have a trunk cover, second of all... no back seats to hide you very well.... hmm... anyways, it would cost you too much money for gas to get here... hopefully you'll find a good job soon. Why don't you do some Network Administrating or some web design for somebody like NGM.... I think he needs a larger server to host all of his files and such...

**** it, it's all good....! that $5.00 won't help me anymore whether I have it or don't....and I wouldn't mind seeing you up here in G-Ville again.... with your new rims and all....

We'll try the raincheck first to see if it works, if not...then I'll pay for ya!

hey everyone, for your best times, what have you normally shifted at? i'm thinking, since we get the most torque around 3.5, keep shifting so i keep hitting that little slope... launch at about 2, go to up to like 4.25 in first and then shift up so i'll start around 3.5 on the next one, and repeat... and it's $15 "all-you-can-race" (depending on traffic) or you only get a certain amount of runs?

uh.... you'll be way off if you shift at 4200 RPMs... you need to pretty much shift at 6200 RPMs through 1st, 2nd and 3rd gear. For $15.00 you'll get unlimited runs for the whole night depending on traffic. Launch at 2,500 RPMS or 2,000 RPMS.... do not slam on the gas too fast, you'll need to ride the clutch a bit to connect with the ground, once you establish grip, floor it...!

You'll also need to do a burnout so that your tires are sticky.....

To do a burnout in a V6 6 spd.... pull the e-brake. Rev to 2,500 RPMS let go of the clutch.....then slam on the gas and rev to 5,000 RPMs, then shift to 2nd gear and rev to 4,000 RPMs again.....

Dunno man... I've been stressed all to hell lately~ Where as getting away for a night might help me, I don't know if I can stand the drive because when I'm stressed my neck/back hurt like hell and usually my stomach is upset (but I'm blaming the chinese food (cat) from 2 nights ago for that stilll)...

So kinda depends on how I feel when I wake up tomorrow I guess :(
