    I'm guessing there is no powder coating shop in the area? Lol. Hmm, I need something to do. Being on leave is less fun here.

    Anytime/day works for me. Church till noon if it's Sunday though. We used to do them Thursday's at 7 just for an hour or 2 to bs. I'm flexible, so I'll be there whenever, but I'm old and go to bed early.

    Battery was 6yrs old, it had a good run. Ecu is shot however, causing my throttle body, and fuel pump relay to chatter like nobodies business, and not start half the time. So I'm 50/50 on actually starting at any given time, lol. Anyone got a spare ecu for a 1.8t sitting around?

    I saw it again today, it's not an r, but someone tried real hard making it look like one. Clean car though. I've been on area beautification this week at the mtc. Swing by if you get a chance tomorrow. I'll be the guy messing with those bigass planters.

    So I tagged a dark graphite blue mk6 Gti at the hospital. Think this guy lives in the complex behind the commissary. We should try to meet up at alligator lake sometime since its pretty quiet back there and they have pavillions and a playground if y'all bring kids. David and I were discussing it earlier today. Feel free to pm me. I don't do much anyways lol. Would love aa reason to get out of the house and talk cars or anything else in general!

    Okay so I snapped some pics of that BBQ grill. Its dirty on the outside, mostly just dusty, but still clean on the inside. Its propane and the left burner doesn't seem to flame 100% compared to the other 2, but it hasn't been used but like 10 times maybe.

    pine trees all around, but in cub scouts they do this thing called the pinewood derby. kids make a car out of a regulation size block of pinewood and its like a soapbox derby, gravity is the momentum, the kids have a certain weight and size restriction to meet. they race four at a time.
