Yeah if either one is going to knock you out of the class, might as well spend it on the coil overs.

Boo for Columbus day. Banks are mostly closed today... But not this awesome one I work for. Oh well. Maybe I'll actually take a lunch today. Boss is off, no other managers in the department. Anyone that is here is exhausted from staying up for the phills last night.

Sounds like a good day to hobble around the mall. Oh wait, I DONT HAVE CRUTCHES ANYMORE!!!! I walk like a normal person again!! :o steriods save my life.

Hope everyone had a good weekend

****.

That's good you don't have crutches anymore Michelle. What bank you work for? My girlfriend is pissed at TD because her check is supposed to go in on Saturdays. Well for some reason they suspended it and she is at -$10. Has to wait until Tuesday I think, and she's going to close her account. I told her about the whole TD issue and a lot of people were closing their accounts. In fact, told her the day before her whole mishap.

Damn that looks like some serious stuff. I know there's a guy on here that does some autox as well. Sean3 I believe it is and also some other guy with a cobra convertible, but they are different than the '10. Maybe get advice from them about the best suspension stuff to do.

i was told koni adjustables and a larger front sway bar. only lowering springs if i want to really stiffen up the ride. so... the koni yellows and a larger front sway are on my list of things to buy soon... but, i am seriously tempted to pick up the BC racing coil overs. granted, i'll get knocked out of F Stock, which i'd like to stay in for a season, but i don't want to spend $700 on koni's then replace them a year later. I may just grab the BC's and worry about getting better in what ever class i get dropped into for that.

I work for GMAC bank... It's a mortgage company but we have online banking too. It just sucks for me because there isn't anything to do today really. When the federal reserve doesn't open for holidays, we don't have work to do.

I haven't had any other issues with TD since my last check I got on the 2nd. The bank should work everything out for your gf though. They aren't charging overdraw fees or anything. If she has time she should call them. From what I heard, the money was in each persons accounts it just wasn't posting to the web. If she calls, they can post it for her manually, she'll probably just have to confirm the amount as it shows up on her paystub. At least that's how it worked out for a few of my friends. Good luck to her though!

Yeah. It was your first time out doing it with that car correct? You can only get better by doing it more and practicing with it.

HickRocket1258 10-12-2009 11:44 AM

Thanks for the info Meesh. I will tell her that. I have Citadel, so don't know much about TD.

yup, first time out. i want to make it to the 25th run at lincoln financial field and maybe the one in november. I'll probably leave things stock until the winter and familiarize myself more with the class rules and really decide where i want to be come next season.

I want to be competitive regardless... so if i can rank well in f stock with the max amount of upgrades versus upgrading a few things and not being able to rank because i'm out driven, out modified and out prepped i'm going to stick with f stock and remain competitive.

Citadel is the best, they will do anything for you. I've been with them for 9 years now, 3 car loans, 1 motorcycle, credit card, savings checking and a few small investments. They never did me wrong.

hanging with Ashley later... sooo excited

DPancoast 10-12-2009 12:09 PM

do coilovers if you have the money ken. It will give you more room to play. Konis will last more than a year but oh well lol. Plus if you shop right you can get coilovers for the same cost as shocks/springs.

Im glad the day is going pretty fast... All this talk of suspension makes me want some wider wheels and coilovers lol.

Yeah right...

Haha I will never buy different wheels, unless they are drag wheels and drag radials for the mustang. Don't want to fork over money for $1000 wheels.
