Re: [DMCForum] Re: Jim's Air Filter

["Andrei Cular" <andreic@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

My car is getting better and better every day.  And it not running 100%
has
to do with the lack of maintenance by the PO not the current owner.

So what do you want to race?  My stock automatic D?  my moped can take it
off the line and up to 35mph.

The Porsche?  your already 1.2sec faster to 60, but what the heck maybe
you
will mis a gear or stall it at the line.

Now I could probably get my buddy to bring out his Mitsu Gallant.  But I
for
him to embarrass you with his 4-door sedan.
