Hello everyone! Long time since I have been on here. Next week I am getting an 02 engine in my 01. I am excited to have my S2K running again. It should be ready by Dec. 1st. See you guys out there!

It was horrible. Everytime I would come home and just look at it in the garage. Terrible thing. Anyway I am from Chattanooga. I have only met cainintn and jonam and I did a few trips on the dragon. When I get my car fixed I will always be wanting to go somewhere in it so I am sure you will see me around. I think the dragon had something to do with my engine failure the first time because it failed 2 days after I went. My just a bad coincedence. Anyway I will see you around.

Corey,

Great news. Who did you end up getting to do the work?

Just saw a white s2000 tonight parked at the new Club 33 where Christopher's Pub used to be off of brainerd. I honked and they honked.

Let me know when your are up and running and maybe this warm weather will stay with us for a ride.

Bill

I am getting the guys at Maximum Velocity Motorsports in Ft. Olglethorpe to put the engine in. They have come highly recommended from tuner guys I know. The engine costs $3000 but I am paying $4000 for an extended warranty on it. They are charging me about $600 to install. The engine is a 2002 with 12,000 miles on it. I have been in contact with these guys for a month and seem very trustworthy and reliable. Have you ever heard of them? Anyway I am very excited to be back on the road. I am leary of slaying the dragon anytime soon. Seeing other S2000's on the road has been driving me crazy. Oh, by the way on saw you on veteran's bridge the other day.

See you round,
Corey

If you're ever planning on putting in an aftermarket clutch/flywheel combination now would be the perfect time!

I think we ought to organize a multiple day (Saturday-Sunday) Dragon Run for early spring, as soon as it warms up enough to go camping. We could get all the Knoxville guys and us Tri-Cities guys, and maybe even a few of the Chatanooga crowd. There's a great campsite about 10 minutes up the road, we could head down Saturday morning, drive all day, then cook out Saturday night and drive some more Sunday before heading home. If we organize it enough in advance, I bet a lot of people could make it.

Keep in mind I'm talking about camping-lite here, there's plumbing and stuff at the campsite, so even people with girlfriends that don't like roughing it can come
