Yeah, broke the car again. Don't know how I did it but the clutch fork snapped right in half. Weird thing is, I stock it and the retaining T-bolt at my work. Should be back up and running tomorrow. These inconveniences are getting in the way of my turbo build!  _________________

| I've heard that happening with the LT1 style stuff since it's all whacked out. Bad design. I try to stear people away from it. |

Really? I'd never heard of this before, but then again I don't hang around lt1 cars much and I did all the research (or lack thereof) for this when I was 18.  |

No, believe it or not; my old boss and his wife stole that one for me for my birthday last year. |

I've collected 2 large cones so that if I ever find a nice quiet lot somewhere I can practice doing figure 8 donut/drifty control. The only signs I have are a STOP and a "Caution Speed Hump"  |

Cones are another thing I have a TON of. You'd be surprised how many cones of all different sizes, styles, shapes can fit into an 82 'yota tercel! |

Do you do anything for fun that isn't illegal?  |
