Derek, do you fire up your ride yet for this season? I took mine out last Friday, when it was like 60 degrees for like 10 minutes. I take what ever I can get.

Picked up a 2005 AR Elise and absolutely love it. Still getting used to it and changing a few things, but am very much looking forward to driving it as the weather improves.

I'm working like the next 20 days in a row, so Mine won't come out of mothballs till at LEAST the middle of April. This year is SO busy, I don't even know when I'm going to be able to drive it.

Mine isn't going to come out really soon. I need new tires. And I figure that happening is a good opportunity to powerdercoat my wheels. So I have to order tires, hook up with a powerdercoater, get that done, get the new tires on, etc.

GLLC First Get Together

Chuck

I was wondering if there would be enough interest in starting our "first Tuesday of the month" in April at the newly reopened Kart2Kart. What do you think?

Chris

Count me in for K2K. Is it still in Sterling Heights or did they move?

Bah! 2nd day out! Driver side turn signal fell out caught it in time to unclip it and drive it home. WAY to nice out though not to drive it! so I just taped it back on for now with electrical tape. Holding on perfectly fine.

Talked to Tom at AE already said np on getting another through warranty... I had the passenger one fall out and lost on my trip to the tail of the dragon last year lol. I'm just lucky with the defective turn signal lights from the factory.

I lost a wheel cap the second day I had mine out. I just figured that made it even lighter weight.

Chris, I think the first Tuesday of April would be perfect. Kart2Kart pretty good place to have first meeting.
