I ate all the spicy bbq sauce, but I have some regular. I will try and get some more of the spicy. Hopefully I remember to bring some with me. This sauce I have is so good, you can put it on anything!

Sadly my control arm didn't come in yesterday. I am goign to go to the post office tomorrow and see if it will be there since I had the address set to my work, usps won't deliver there on Saturday, unless you're open; which we're not. So the worst case is my control arm comes in Monday I guess :| Car meet tomorrow, that is about 15 miles from my house, how nice.

I could go for some Fajita's bisteck de carbon, the best way to make em'! Yeah, the grilling idea sounds good and that little grill is going to get a hell of workout for sure. Just hope that grocery store across from Hardee's has what we need. Thursday night would be a good night to grill and the guys that are there before the rest of us, pick up the food before we get there and we'll pay you when we pull in, ok? This will be really cool, the campfire and the grill going at the same time
Wait...someone said hot sauce

This is my next mod in the spring, why pay $600 for the "look" when you can just "wrap it up" for the same look and pay $250. I can't justify the $380 for Mugen sport grill but I can justify $170 for the Honda sport grill though. Yeah, I like the Mugen grill but for what that costs I can wrap the hood AND get the Honda sport grill!

Not sure if this will help right now but SVTTOUR is stepping down as mod and he's supposed to have alot of stuff to sell off.
Hey Marge, is this the one thing keeping the white Cougar from making the run? If so, I hope you get it and bring it out but if not, we're looking forward to seeing the black Cougar too.

I could have "Type R" cut out of the CF on the hood though. Unfortunatley there's no more perf items to add to the car, other than some chassis bracing but next year I'll upgrade the brakes, that is if they come out with perf pads for it, they've got SS lines right now. I'd like to do the hood, the roof, the spoiler and hatch in this CF tape but with what that would cost, its going to have to be done in stages. As far as springs go, just gotta see if my tire/wheel combo will rub with springs, there's mixed reviews on this on the Fit site, can't get a straight answer. To me, with a 1.3" drop in the front, I should be able to get away with that, its not like I have 4 people in the car all the time but I don't wanna ruin that option when I do though.
Will you guys be able to pick up the food before we get down there Thursday? If so, what were you thinking about picking up? I mean, I usually spend about $12.00 or so on dinner, so I can atleast put in $10.00 toward the food if you get "the good stuff" like steak or good brats. I'm sure there's another grocery store in the area. Hopefully everyone else doesn't cheap out when paying you guys money towards the food for our grill out on Thursday. Afterwards, we can go out for a little spin on the Skyway too!

Looks like the guy made his Hectour...
Maybe some day....
This is the grill I'm looking to get in the spring, Honda sport grill and yeah, I'll have the red JDM badge as well, hopefully I can pull the one off of my stock grill and not mess it up.

Now to derail the thread a bit...
Now to derail the thread a bit...
I was thinking about this today and thought I'd throw it out there to everyone, "run it up the flagpole" so to speak. Not that I'm bored with the Dragon, far from it, but Hectour and I have talked about this before so I thought I'd see what you guys think about doing the "Million Dollar Highway" at some point.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/U.S._Route_550
I'm sure you've seen this on "Dangerous Drives" on cable, its been on there. The road is about 108 miles long and runs from Colorado into New Mexico, I believe. The scenery is amazing, the road is amazing and parts of the road have no guardrails because......THERE IS NO ROOM TO PUT ONE!
Look at this...
They're kidding with this one, right
No room for guardrails here!
WOW!
Just look at it, calling our names!
Now on a serious note, the elevation goes up to 10k+ here, my car would struggle getting up those hills but I think it would make it, but going back down, that's another thing. I don't see myself making this trip in my current car for sure, I mean I know it could do it, but would I want to do it in the Fit...NO! I wanna enjoy myself at some point.
This road is about 1200 miles from us here in Chicago, so its not close to us and certainly not close to you guys in Tenn, S.C., KY and FLA. That being said though, its something to think about though, a once in a lifetime run for sure. We could all plan this 2-4 years down the road and I know that seems a bit extreme with other things going on in our lives, but, with some planning that long, we could do it:shrug:
I hope things get better in my life so by the time we're ready to do a run like that, I've got my Fiat 500 Abarth to do something like that in, that would be GREAT! I will say this though, we'd need to do this in the summer though, at the elevation we'd be going up to, the chance of snow is pretty good and I don't wanna see any white stuff. Much research and reading would have to go into the where and when for this project. So, let's put this in the oven and see what comes out.

I would love to run that. from Louisville its about 1300 miles, but if we are thinking about in 2-4 years I have no idea where i will be then. could be Virginia, New York, Colorado, or someplace else entirely.
