OMFG. those brakes are insane. dead stop from 20mph in like 3-5 ft. something ridiculous like that.
I had a great time there. met some new friends and a few more car nuts that are local
you guys should of seen his undercarriage. NOT A SPOT OF OIL, DIRT OR ANY OTHER KIND OF DEBRIS. I WANTED TO YACK. it was so clean i couldn't beleive he had actually driven the car.

Dexter,
I must say that I enjoyed meeting you as well as the others who visited the shop last Saturday. I had a good time. All the stories.....all the drama. I'm also very pleased to learn that you are more than satisfied via your write-up.
GSPusher.....We'll definitely be talking in the future.
Wolfy.....Really good to finally meet you in person.
Mr. Johnson.......What the hell was that BMW driver thinking.
Dexter.....Do you still need that drink?? LMFAO!
Remember to still keep your hands inside the car at all times.
Peace.

Dexter,
Great meeting up with you. I hope you are enjoying your ride with the cool new toys. Your car is really nice. The blue is such a unique color and window tint makes it look real classy. Oh did I mention it's so clean too!
(For those of you who weren't there I got a ton of c*ap for having a dirty engine bay and... underside and well outside and well.... you get the picture) 
Marken & Mo: Great to finally meet you guys. Dexter is not kidding when he says Mo knows his sh*t. Marken: I haven't a clue what the BMW dude was thinking but I was glad to see you've got some pretty good reflexes there. Sorry about the long hours I hope you enjoyed your special dinner. Say hey to Steve for me.
GS400_PUSHER: Nice meeting you and your brother dude. I dig the side marker lights on your car. You need to convince your wife to let you hook up with Mo for some more power. If she needs convincing let me know.
wolfy187: Cool exhaust and wheels. Bummer about your front spoiler though.
That was an awesome ride in that other GS wasn't it?
I made it home after an 11 1/2 hour drive, nothing blew up and not even a check engine light. I'm a happy camper.

Gosh darn it, I knew I forgot something... The after dyno. :eek:
J/K... I said I'd call it like I see it. So far I'm happy. I will say that a couple of other folks were right when they told me I'd need/want a torque converter.
That's all I have to say... for now.
