Looks like the FSAE cars will be no-shows. They stripped a brake bleeder in one of them (dumbasses) and split the radiator on the other one Saturday, which severely interrupted my day when they needed it hauled back to the shop 3 hours earlier than expected.
Edit- Everybody let me know if you're around Friday for some boozin'. Iron Hill Brewery would be the spot. It will be warm, which means all the college chicks will be in minimal attire.

Stickers and pizzas, **** YEAH! I'm dyno'in if my MS issues are corrected or not! Oh yeah, also, this dude at work gave me that T-3 from a Saab 900 still bolted to the turbine elbow and the manifold, said he wants like $50 for it all, just in case anybody is interested.

Yay! 40% chance of rain Saturday! :(
For those coming from the south, I'm guessing you'll want to take the Elkton Road (109B) exit to get to ACA rather than the Rt. 896 exit to avoid the extravagant toll between the two (I think it's $4 or so). From Elkton Road, you can either take Otts Chapel Road to Old Baltimore Pike, or go up to Route 4 (Christina Parkway/Chestnut Hill Road) to Rt. 72 to Old Baltimore Pike.
I say this because cops have been out in force lately in a few areas along these routes. Have to fill out the budget and all that. Specifically they tend to sit in the driveways to the Chrysler plant on Route 4, a couple places along Elkton Road, and Otts Chapel road at the first intersection or two. The rest of Otts Chapel and Old Baltimore Pike are *usually* cop free, but no promises. I95 between DC/Baltimore is swarmed with cops.

Got my Miata started today! Didn't actually move it anywhere, but I put the battery in and got it started up. It doesn't seem to want to catch idle coming down in RPM, and I didn't want to mess around with it. Whatever. It'll make it to the dyno. Just glad I didn't do anything incredibly stupid and blow it up. Looks like I'll be bringing a friend too.
