WTF? Why so Many breakdowns? Sad I missed it. I'm taking the next weekend off as soon as it's released.
How did the frum rolls go?

I was quicker than EVOJ and spoolinturbo, didn't get a chance to run anyone else. Tachyon got scared and waved me off.

The roads were awesome, as were the shenans. I got lost for a bit with Leasure and we hit some roads pretty hard, that was boss. My car made it despite my constant groundless worrying these days.

Bobby sent me a pic, he's got a picturesque bay window in his block. The view is to cry for.

.

Pretty sure it would have been closer if we had both left on the third honk too

We should have tried about 10 minutes after that since we were tuning at that time and were not making nearly the power as later in the day

Anything to with those top-speed runs you kept doing?

Did you find a hole anywhere?

Lots of pretty even runs I'd say. I didn't see them all though.

Sounds like he found one in the block. I hope it's covered under the lease terms

Its possible, but you got to feed a little speed to your whip now and then. Well at least I know the limits of the Evil Evo.
Glad you like the pics, MONEY SHOT FTW. I really want to see other pics or maybe video. I'll so be ready for the next cruise a GO-Pro camera and god damnit hotel reservations, lol

Beer... so much beer...

**scheides** · 10-07-2012

What's the angle on that picture? Trying to figure out where on the block that is...you said you had gotten a cyl 2 misfire code right? Is that in front of cyl2?

Wonder if a bad spark plug got you....

It was taken laying on the ground.
Yes, it's right in front of the #2 cylinder, just under the manifold.

Yeah, P0302 Cylinder #2 misfire.

Mark Leasure · 10-07-2012

Once again Tina and I had a great time hanging out with everyone, I old man'd it and was asleep by 11pm. The lost driving that Spaz and I went on was a good adventure.

Trogdor sorry to hear about the motor failure. All of us with modified stock block cars are always one roll of the dice away from windowing a block. Good luck on the future build.

On a side note, it was too bad my caliper bolt backed out. Because other than that (self induced issue), my wife and I were actually talking about how nice the SC is to cruise in. It's comfortable, new suspension drives really smooth, it's extremely quiet inside (nearly stock quiet), and really feels like we can pound on it and it just takes it. We're not constantly worried it going to break, listening and smelling something strange all the time worrying you are going to break down (which is how I almost always felt in the Talon). The car is parked, and I think it will remain parked while it undergoes some large changes over the winter.

Had a good time. Canal park was really cool to see, saw some huge barges!

Did you show her your barge while you were in the park?

Sounds like you are totally in love with the SC, double check your work or just leave it alone!
Who are we kidding that things needs more boost before you are done.

Sorry for your loss, were you beating the shit out of it with that code?
Well good luck from here, throw a stock motor in and drive it or sell it and recoup your finances a bit.

Did asshanson get a new ride? How did pat/tehehodi's car do? I know he was mega excite!

Nah, I was planning to drive it home granny shifting and going the speed limit the whole way. When it blew up I was only doing about 65 MPH@3100 RPMs

Crazy.

Wow that sucks. Your dealership knows you modded the car. I cant see them replacing anything.

^lmao.

I had to read that twice to understand what it said.

Sounds like a classic good time guaranteed cruise, sorry I missed it.

tehehodi · 10-07-2012

My car would randomly stumble on it's face, then recover after awhile. Have no clue why. But, on the way home, at the e85 station in duluth, just unplugged the battery for a bit and and no issues since.

It was definitely a fun time but I wish I could have T&C'd before this issue happend. Next time I guess!

evotuner · 10-07-2012

someday i will find time for one of these cruises...sorry to hear the motor probs bobby

A//// Guy · 10-07-2012

Had fun! Was an interesting cruise this time, few issues here and there, the off roading was new too lol. Toothless strippers ftl!!
