Lets hope the rain stays away this weekend to. So far it says partly cloudy for Sat. High of 85 would be nice to.

Looks like it may be a bit cooler: Mid 70's in the morning?
Won't that be nice!

A little Rant...
My car has been at the dealer since last Thursday for some repair to the "transmission plate". Car was shifting badly, plus CHECK ENGINE LIGHT(my first one up-to-date) so i took it in. Had them fix my trunk while they were at it(wasn't staying up after opening).
He tells me yesterday one of the parts is VIN specific and special order. Might take 2-3 days. I already told him I had an event this weekend that I HAD TO GO TO and he says he'll do everything he can to get it out by friday. He usually takes care of me and gets things done super quick but that "2-3 days" is cuttin' it kinda close....
Weather looks good for Saturday too....
I'm pissed right now...

C240 loaner vs CGT sounds like a fun race to me.

I gutted an Infiniti loaner and ran it at the strip once.
That'll learn 'em for not giving you the car back.......

Me and 1FASTC32 are going to leave at 5 AM on Saturday. It should take no more than 4 hours.
If anyone in Houston wants to join us, please PM me. We can meet somewhere along I-45.

I called the parts dept. today(my SA is off today) to check on the status of my vin-specific part and the conversation basically went like this:
Me: I would like to check the status of a part ordered?
Parts guy: Your name sir.
Me: ******* *********
Parts guy: Ok...whoa!...looks like your part is coming from germany.
Me: !@#$....Ok is there some sort of tracking number to track the order.
Parts guy: When something is ordered from germany we don't get tracking #'s 'til it reaches customs:
Me:@$%#...Well i gues I have to wait.
So, I doubt the 55 will be ready unless the part gets there first thing in the morning.
I'm seriously depressed.
