Sounds good. Once I get something definite planned I'll start a separate thread.

LOL. Mike, Gainesville is about half way between your house and mine.

Haha, I was just being an ass..

I say a tech day with a flywheel install sometime in April would be a good idea.

Haha. We'll give your car its own personal day. That way we can knock out some little stuff and then get to driving some back roads.

Flywheel install o.O lol I've seen first hand just how fast those can turn from a tech day into a tech weekend. I'm all for it though, let's get to wrenching!

But when you consider how good of a tricep and shoulder workout you get, it almost makes it not bearable at all

On second thought, I don't wanna help with flywheels...

Add .5 for trips into the house for beer.

Extra hands definitely help. Taking out the plastics sucks but it's not hard. I have another friend with the RSG bar that needs installed. You two could both bring them and if you help each other you could have them done in no time.

Haha I was just messing around, as I know you'll be quite busy over the next month. I'm not looking forward to it but I'm sure it's not as bad as I think.. If only I could fit my 60 gal comrpessor and tools in the s2k and bring them over your way..

Haha unfortunately I can't do shite at my house (hopefully move to a bigger place in a few years), but I got all my tools and stuff at my mom's house in Ashburn.

I got an idea Wally.. if you know how to install a bathtub and wanna give me a hand at my place, I'll help install your rollbar.

I hate this goddamn tub..

I know as much about installing a bathtub as do about installing a roll bar! I will learn everything I need to know from Mr. Google.

I recently replaced a cast iron bathtub with a new....... cast iron bathtub. It was a complete pain in the ass to get up the stairs. Much more difficult than installing a rollbar.

Wow cast iron on the 2nd floor? You're brave!

I'm installing a composite tub (which presents a diff set of problems because it's so flimsy) since it was recommended by a plumber friend, and there's no way in hell I'd get a cast iron tub up the stairs in my townhouse. Haha, ya I know it's more difficult which is why I made the suggestion..
