Ryan Roopnarine : Gainesville Raceway tonight?

[DanDombrowski]

Wednesday night test n tune, and I think Im going. Would have given you more notice had I known the track was even open, but I just found out. You down to go tonight? It opens at 6:30

you guys will learn the hard way that your cars are driven entirely by rubber, then you'll quit drag racing the cars

[DanDombrowski]

Bah! I don't have to be responsible till I'm married. What's that dear? No, I'm not going to the racetrack tonight, I'm, uh, going to look for jewelry for you. SHHHH!

I'm just anticipating a "Clunking from mid of car... flexdisc? center bearing? u-joint?" post soon.

[DanDombrowski]

Have new flexdisc in already. If it need center bearings or u-joints, then I put in new center bearings or U-joints.

Hey, I live in gainesville! I've always wanted to go to the raceway, but i've never been and my car (which i've had for all of two months) is still entirely stock. i was going to save up for those pesky thrust arms and bushings and sway bars.

Yeah don't take it from me or anything, but Brandon is right... the cars are built ENTIRELY from rubber... just ask my center bearing.

You have all of about an hour and a half to get ready, it would be really cool to see another 5er out there. I've got the black one. If you're really interested, IM me (if you have AIM) at Volvo240T and I'll give you my cell number. Pease!

If i didn't work tonight.... And I think they're probably right, i dunno about draging.. i'd really like to just like to do laps.. going as fast as i possibly could.. i've never been above 90-100ish in the city.. and i've only done that once or twice. Its so constricting having 40mph speed limits all over the place.

heh. you ever want to work on your car with someone else tell me, i've got plenty of broken stuff to fix. we could replace all this rubber stuff thats going to break with metal stuff.

If there were metal stuffs to replace the rubber stuffs we'd all use it... but the design of the rear subframe requires that the driveline have flexibility. the flex disc fails, and then the center bearing does... its a mess... and not fun... to replace means to drop exhaust, disconnect driveshaft halves, press new center bearing, bolt up new flex, and then rehook the splined driveshaft... nicht spass!!!!
