This still happening on the 18th? I'm going to be back in Chicago the next weekend for a racing show too.

Re: Wisconsin

Welcome to the addiction. :)

I'm right over in Fort Atkinson, and there's another guy here just outside Janesville. We get together between here and Chicago quite a bit; you'll have to join us sometime.

Re: STYLUSS DIY........

How's it been holding up long term? Does the sun beat the crap out of it, or is it actually still holding the gloss you had initially? I might just do this to my Jeep too, then I don't feel so bad when I scratch it off roading around the woods :)

Crystal will be home with a 6 week old or so at that time, so I'll definitely be there if I can, but probably just on Saturday.

Re: the "what do you do for a living" thread

I was non-union, but I worked with the United Steel Workers union a few years ago. Thus far the only union I've worked with that doesn't have its head in the sand, and actually seems to have the best interest of its members in mind. I'm the Quality Control Manager/Safety Manger at a corrugated box ...

Re: the "what do you do for a living" thread

My place looked a whole lot different when I started there. We're about 50% faster than we were five years ago, and twice as profitable. More money in the company kitty = more job security, not to mention more profit sharing. I've been thinking about starting a manufacturing consulting thing on the ...

Re: pre mix paint

I know a couple guys that have used it on drag cars and it looks great at first. Lacquer looks good, polishes out well, and shoots easy...and looks like absolute trash in a year or two. The guys with it on their dragsters still look OK, but those cars are never outside other than being at the track....

Re: Any old members still here?

Bought the first Beretta in 99, been lurking around here since 01. I didn't even know what an online forum was, just noticed that there was some kind of meet in Milwaukee, an hour from my house. Went, met Cack, Rex, Aaron Choate, etc...and haven't been able to shake this crazy addiction to these car...

Re: LVD FLOODED

Maybe they'll just let slow cars like Berettas run! Or Camaros, they don't need the whole track anyways... :burn: Sometimes they only use about 2 inches of it and get pushed back off... Oh good, I'm not the only Camaro that's done that. GLD got a little overzealous with prepping the track once, and...

Re: One more....

I realize I'm quite a bit behind, but Congrats Mike and Amanda! Yeah Crystal wanted a Montana too, unitl I saw a couple wrecked in the yards. Not buying her one of those. We'll probably get and Astro too eventually, I need something that can haul more than the Monte Carlo. How much can the 4.3 astro...

Frustrations...

Yeah, it seems that no car likes to break alone.  Strut mount and sway bar end links went out on the wife's 99 Grand Prix yesterday, and this morning the 02 Monte left me sitting in the driveway.
