Re: Michigan Banter Thread :)

I was going to go halfsies with Kevin on one of those but i decided against it. It's like when two people win one trophy, WHO GETS TO KEEP IT?!?!

I'll probably just buy one for myself lol.

Same here. I think this is the coldest I have ever experienced, its -3 here right now with a -20 windchill, seems weak to you ganders but that is crazy **** for Indianapolis!
 
Re: Michigan Banter Thread :)

I am sure getting tired of this cold! It is sad when you are happy to see it warming up to 20'F for the weekend.


I am kind of sad that I am going to miss the auto show this year, again. Last year I had the flu just before opening day and was sick for the entire weekend. This year I have some Mustang projects that I need to get done this weekend, and next weekend is the 24 hours of Daytona. I don't want to miss that. However, besides the new Taurus and Mustang, there is very little that I want to see this year. I have not seen any Fiesta's on display, and since nobody brings racecars to the show, there is not much for me to see. It is still fun to go, and I will miss it, but my wife is very happy I am staying home. So, everyone take good pictures for me. :)

Re: Michigan Banter Thread :)

sorry you can't go, I'm headed there monday. I'll take a ton of pics for ya!
 
Re: Michigan Banter Thread :)

If I go I might bring my dslr with me. Not sure if I feel like carrying it around with me.
 
Re: Michigan Banter Thread :)

next year I am thinking about going out during the week when it won't be crowded. I say that every year, but always forget to put in the vacation time or plan for it in advance. If the production US Spec Feista was going to be there, I would go.

I'm surprised its not. the car is done. They'll probably show it at LA.
 
Re: Michigan Banter Thread :)

Like a true OG, I went ahead and bought a Motive bleeder last Spring, and I live in between all of you, lol. This old man will undercut rental fees!

I have to do an entire SVT brake kit install, and a timing belt swap this Spring... So any newbies that want to see how it is done we should have and old school install gtg's again.

As long as I am free from work, I am always down to help work a focus. Love these damn things!
 
Re: Michigan Banter Thread :)

I have all my cossie parts i need to put on in the spring so i'll probably have people over to my house to hang out when i do.
 
Re: Michigan Banter Thread :)

If anyone happens to go to the DePaul-Marquette game on Tuesday, keep an eye out for the Navy colorguard during pre-game. I'll be carrying one of the rifles. :thumbup:
 
Re: Michigan Banter Thread :)
