And you were the only one with brakes that smelled like they had been working hard When I tried to explain how to use the autostick you told me you were doing just fine using your brakes.

 

I have to agree with Nick. Your driving style left me very worried. The brakes are competent on their own, but when you overbrake they become over heated and smell something awful like yours did. As you said, if you plan on trying to stay up Nick you need to learn how to use the Autostick and improve your brakes, i.e better pads, high temp fluid, and stainless lines.

 

Jasons comments about the brakes are a must to keep up with thoes quick guys. Then get a paddle shifter and a tcu from Rudy to fine tune using the trans to control the weight and momentum of your car. You will be giggeling out loud at the difference.

 

When I brought Natalie home for the first time my wife stated you don't need that bleeping thing..So my reply was you may be right love but this is cheaper then a 22yr old. No problem after that.

 

So i am a little embarassed to tell you guys this but I sold my Crossfire to my friend. I was planning on getting a 4 door sports car. I was looking at a 400+ SRT-4, but i'm moving soon and it was going to take a while for the car to be ready.

So I decided instead to jump on something I found. I found a bored and rebuilt 97 GSX Eclipse, dynoed out at 274 AWHP. I paid in cash $3,000. It's fun and very fast, and hopefully after my move I will be buying my wife her Tahoe like she wants. I'm sure with this Dyno sheet I won't have much trouble selling my GSX in the future, so it's just a toy for now.

 

Edit* not sure why every sports car I buy is white.

 

Because you like the color of rice.

 

Best of luck with your move to OK. It's too bad you couldn't take the Xfire with you because there are some great Xfire folks there. Maybe you can find another after your move.

 

Congratulations on your new purchase and good luck on your move to OK. Everything works out in the end.

 

I'll be back, and ill have to introduce my friend to the forums. Y'all are an immensely helpful group of people.

 

As long as you're not calling the XF a ricer car lol

 

Congrats on the good deal! Hurry on back to the cool club as soon as you get a chance...

 

How about an early "welcome to the nieghborhood!"

 

Some guy from OKC wants to trade my eclipse for a 2004 A6 2.7T Quattro S Line. If this goes through, hopefully Eurocharged can hook me up with a quick tune.

I think I will need to prepare myself for my wife to take over my car again like the crossfire lol
