I was going to replace my pads and rotors this winter, but decided to just go ahead and buy a BBK further down the line. If any local club member is interested, I will let the rotors go for a super good price: How about $220 + a hot chocolate from Tim Hortons.

I also have some NIB Hawk Ceramic pads that I purchased at OutMotoring about a month ago for $185+tax. Once agian, I will let these go for $175; or if no one is interested, I hope trade them in and get some credit towards the Alta Boost/??? gauge pod.

And Mark, I will be driving there with Yuriy . At least I show up to events that I say I'll be at . And of course I'm looking forward to the OSU vs Michigan game after the breakfast. Does anyone know of any good tailgating parties going on during the game?
ahh Weedhopper...Old Fart say..."sometime Silverback body not cooperate with Silverback mind"

I know you were talking to Mark about a paint job, did that ever happen? I would be curious to see pics of your tailgate ambulance.

I would like to come down again, but the OSU game is calling me. I'll just have Aaron send me more stuff. 2 hour drive is too long, I'll try again in the spring. Kelvin is getting garaged for the winter.



GO BUCKS!!!!!!!!!!!

Aaron I got my stuff and the stubby antenna looks good!

Sorry I'll have to wait until spring to meet Kelvin. I feel sorry for him. Stuck in the garage all winter while the other kids get to go out & play in the snow. I do understand.

Come on down anyway Aaron has a cool flat screen HDDT TV.

See ya in the spring!!!

Nice seeing everyone today. After the breakfast, James (japello) came with me to my friend's shop where we had the Doug Thorley exhaust installed. His doesn't have a resonator, but it still has a tame sound with a few deep burbles.

And of course a few pictures....



Chuck, Aaron, and Yuriy


Buying some new toys...


My friends at Fastlane cutting off the old bolts and preparing to remove the factory exhaust on James's MCS.


Their dogs are very amusing...


The finished product.

Nice pictures Cooper. You do well with your pocket spy cam.

When are you coming over to install those brake pads anyway? Sorry Cooper, just got finished.

The snow tires are on & boy am I going to have to get used to the squirmy snows again.

Nice pics Cooper. Do you have any more pics of those new tips from a different angle?

Chuck, Engineer Brody is enjoying his new sound effects. His eyes lit up when I played it for him, then he took it over to his current track set up and started playing with it.

Brian, it makes me smile knowing Brody's having fun with his train sounds.

Remember you can pull the battery if it starts to drive you bonkers.

I'm just saving my sticky tires for the good weather. On the plus side I'll be much faster on a gravel road now.

Geez Chuck. Same camera, same angle. Pretty scary! Luckily our "model" was taking so much time with the decal that we could both get a shot.

Thanks to everyone I met today, and to those I didn't meet. This was the first of many more visits if you'll have me?
Cooper did an outstanding job with the phone hook-up for the install. Fast Lane was great, James (our tech) was thorough on the install.
The system is AWESOME! The ride home was (as Cooper says) "sweet!!!"
Thanks to Aaron for the excellent product too!
Next time, we'll have a brake install clinic, a spring install, and whatever else I can get out of my office (MINI parts room).

Thanks Again, and see you next month...

No, Cooper didn't ask.
Why, did I miss something? Is he a "wild child" behind the wheel?
