Lol thanks I think I was a lil tipsy when I pm'ed you back haha.... it going to be sad to see her being parted out and back to stock

 

Breakfast this morning from a little place down the street is a Rocket in a Pocket with hash browns. It's a pita stuffed with scrambled eggs, bacon, cheese, diced bell peppers, onions, lettuce and sliced tomato's with Rocket sauce. Without Rocket sauce it's called a Scud.

 

Love that little bit of humor

That looks pretty good, actually.

 

3 days......

 

Meh. I raised the front just before the event in fear it was going to rub during cornering.

I also ran the dampers too stiff. You'd think this is illogical, but on the last run I turned the shocks to the halfway point (fairly soft), and it was faster, like noticably faster.

So I was disappointed that I didn't know this before. Couple that with non-functioning ABS, and I didn't feel as fast as last time.

Also, not having a couple guys I know to run with made the whole thing kind of bitter-sweet. It's just way more fun with others you know well, especially in cars you know, etc.

But next run is mid-month next month. I just installed my MREV2 Lower IM, and will have the Akebono's on for that. Coupled with knowing the softer suspension benefit, that should make for one heck of an AutoX run.

Also I have to say, the setup and course here was 10x better than Rochester. Over 100 cars out as well. It was awesome, just lacked a few key ingredients.

 

 

Not necessarily, handling is something of a 'black art' even for the pros. Just as you found out stiffer isn't always better!
Reading the article I sent you should help in beginning to comprehend the dynamics involved. I have a hard time wrapping my head around some of the more technical stuff, but it's given me a basic understanding.

 

And that's why when a race is held at a track, the teams get practice sessions do dial in their cars for that particular track before the race.

 

So true!

 

Really entertaining the purchase of my next vehicle
Got a few cars in mind.... 6 speed, More then 4 pistons , Turbo, 4 doors and definitely unique when modded and stand out the crowd

 

* really need to get the aftermarket parts sold on the maxima . I know im going to get stuck with the carbon fiber hood :/ in less I sell it locally...no body around here mods maxima's so it will probably end up a sled lol

 

Saab?? New Taurus SHO?? 335i? V70/S60R? S4 2.7T?

 

Volvo s60r.... you should buy my aftermarket parts

 

I'm trying to find one with atacama leather interior ...

 

You want the Atacama interior? It's the driest interior... in the world.

 

Wtf just how stupid can a person be before they are concidered truely retarded and should be put away

 

True...

I believe he was referring to alcantara, not atacama. I guess he had an airhead Kelly Bundy moment!

This video is the perfect example of that...

 

Lol your retarded, I want the atacama color interior... looks almost like a baseball glove... test drove 2 s60r's loved them and the one with the atacama interior was 6 speed automatic with the slap shift so that is a no no ... the car has to be a 6 speed manual

 

FAP FAP FAP

Thanks for the joke, too. I had it in mind when I read atacama. Unfortunate that you had to link it haha

 

Atacama, available for an additional charge. It was a unpainted, orangey-coloured natural leather with a baseball glove thickness and feel.

 

Yes I know what the atacama interior is in a Volvo. I worked at a luxury, exotic, sports car dealership for nearly 12 years that was mostly Euro's, so I knew what you were talking about. Just had to fck with you a little bit on it.

Volvo's Atacama leather interior...

 

Pure sexy ness ..... and the sound of that 2.5 turbo inline 5 is music to my ears ... I been dreaming about it the Last 2 days

 

My damn ps3 got dust and cob webs on it... it been a while since I play a video game...

 

This. I drove an auto and a 6-spd V70R and the auto was SOOO slow compared to the 6-spd. Find one with the slide-up Nav too. Personally I'd get the wagon. They just look better IMHO. And try to get one with around 50K. You do not want one with close to 100K. Too much money you'll be needing to put in it. I will say this, Volvo's have the most comfortable seats I've ever sat in. Better than my dad's Lincoln.

 

wow and this guy had the nerve to pm me and attempt to call me some name FFS

True enough.

This car is better suited for an actual Track-style Road course than autoX anyways. It will never be 'fast' at Auto X

 

i like wild colored interiors.....but that looks like a girl that has a tanning bed addiction. I would rather have the black or tan interior than that. That is a bit much.

 

This thread needs some music...

 

It doesn't look like that normally. I think the color is off a couple hues because I remember it being slightly darker. Also, I don't remember there being that gawd awful light wood trim to "match" like it looks like they're trying to do.

 

I'll add mine to the mix:

 

LOL... Click the Craiglist ad, But prepare your eyes to be raped gents. (It IS work SAFE)

I'll think I'll pass on the wagon, the c70's aren't that bad . I'm pretty much set on a 08/09 s60r 6 speed inline 5 awd turbo and super comfortable interior... what more can u ask for..

 

I've heard that song before. Was it in a GTA game?

 

 

 

 

I am very familiar with that particular dealership, let's just say they are "interesting" people...half the cars they've got look like they belong in the "local ricer" thread, the other half look like they were owned by folks who don't really speak the language...entire dealership is shady imo
