Staunton Auto-X, Sept. 19

[Dragon]

To my knowledge there's no charge, but they don't allow people in to just spectate, just sign in as crew or worker, they don't ask you specifically who you're crewing for or what kinda work you're doing.

I'm out on this. I'm doing a dyno day at Ultimate/MachV the day before in Sterling so cost of that + C16 is going to leave me eating canned soup. I think I'm going to go watch slummit stuff instead.

[ScottyB]

i think im just gonna watch. i'm holding out til the next VMP auto-x in october, so i can go balls to the wall and not worry about conserving my tires since ill be taking them off for the winters soon afterwards.

i'm still goin to slummit on sat. though. i think Damnit is with me, anyone else?

[BLAIR]

[BLAIR]

I dont like working on busted shit.

1.8T's? besides the coilpacks, they seem to be pretty damn stout.

Blair, i will def. be talking to you alot in the future i have some questions, mostly about the engine.

[.RJ]

Whats wrong with the coil packs? Do they blow up at random?

What about all the other electronic messes and general german over-engineering?

i'm sure it's been documented at some point. hock:

there aren't as many electrical glitches as many of the rumors say. it depends alot on the year when it comes to some of the other oddball problems. my dad's A4, for instance, has had NOTHING non-maintainance replaced in 60k miles with the exception of a door handle and a coil pack.

[BLAIR]

yea man just talk to me... you dont have anything reliability to worry about.. coilopack... between me and my freinds we probably got quite a few extra good ones laying around..
