You should check on a stud kit and lug nuts for the cabby for me so I can get those hammers on. I'll trade ya for your drill....finally have it here at the house, let me know when you want me to bring it by.

BTW, thanks for that exhaust manifold Joey; want it back all cleaned up? Forgot about it not having a place for the O2 sensor, ended up getting one from the guy I sold my dual downpipe to. All my parts came in from TT, hopefully it'll be back on Wed. and on the road end of the week. It's coilover time then

**sickmind** · 07-21-2010 08:40 PM

Nah . I got a couple of them . I can think of one thing I need . I need a roof rack to fit my 95` jetta . It would be sweet if somebody had one local instead of me buying one online , to save on shipping and the new factor .

**BORA RKT** · 07-28-2010 03:09 PM

Wow forgot about this thread I only log on to the tex once or twice a week now.... How's everyone? We need to have a GTG soon

**sickmind** · 07-29-2010 05:54 PM

**FOUR!** · 07-29-2010 07:35 PM

I've been around more often lately than I have been for a long time, finally got the cabby on the road, now just waiting for parts to show up

**G60Driver** · 08-02-2010 11:02 AM

Sorry Joey!

**BORA RKT** · 08-12-2010 09:07 AM

**FOUR!** · 08-12-2010 05:03 PM

No idea, they usually run something like 9/10-1pm. There website seems to be down, there was a banner up at Budget Signs on Williamson, that's the only reason I found out about it. I'll look as see if it's still there on the way to work tomorrow.

**FordsFastGTI** · 08-14-2010 06:41 PM

SO was there a VW show at Tanglewwod today? Did anyone go? I cruised by there at 3 and couldn't find anything going on at the Mall...a little bummed.

Autocross up in Verona tomorrow...pretty sure I can close out my class championship tomorrow with a win! Let me know if anyone is interested.

**FOUR!** · 08-14-2010 09:14 PM

I rode by there around one and there were 3 bugs and a ghia in the lot, it was raining. I didn't get the bearing in the Cabby yet anyhow. There is a VW show and drag race next weekend at motormile dragway in Radford, might try and make that.
