That exhaust is intense, btw. It sounds louder than mine was when I drove it without a muffler. Did you hook an amplifier to your downpipe??

Oh that would make sense. Lol I didnt recognize you without the black eye haha. Umm no that's just my catback haha it's pretty loud. I cant wait to hear it in WOT. It really amplifies the sound of the turbo spinning too. even though I'm not really even spooling it yet. haha

Nobody has heard it in boost yet.. We will know what it sounds like in a week! :D

You've seen Rob with a black eye? This makes me laugh.

100_Percent_Juice 2010-10-27 08:17 AM

Spotted: SVX doing a hot lap around 9.

Is this a reference to me?

'Cause I was on my way to work around 9... but not exactly racing anywhere. :lol:

100_Percent_Juice 2010-10-27 09:30 AM

:lol: No. I was talking about another SVX driver who was late to work. Racing is such a strong word. Let's just say, driving faster than everyone else.

In Reno, you can drive 5 under the limit and still be "driving faster than everyone else". I swear I'm the only person that wants to get where I'm going... except at a stop sign. If you actually stop, there's a 50/50 shot you'll get rear-ended by the guy behind you that was just going 15 under the limit.

Reno is weird like that at times especially on 395. I am flying past other cars and am just at or near 65... Then there is the 50MPH section everyone drives 60 on...

Stop sign thing is true too. Reno loves stop signs. There is a Y right near my house where a single yield on 1 leg is all that is needed, but no, it has 2 stop signs instead which most everyone ignores.

I feel like an asshole for trying to maintain 65 on the freeway here. 395 drivers are the worst.

bigrobwoot 2010-10-27 04:25 PM

I'm so glad I'm not the only one who notices how slow everyone drives here. Scott, that's exactly how I feel about it, too. Get the eff out of the way, I wanna get where I'm going.

Yeah, new years was a bitch...

GusGus91 2010-10-27 06:10 PM

haha that bitch hit's pretty hard?

cody 2010-10-28 05:24 PM

+1 for Reno drivers, especially on 395. Heading toward Stead, everyone thinks it's a good idea to crowd to the two left lanes and drive 55 up the hill. I fucking hate it so much.

GusGus91 2010-10-28 07:46 PM

saw Rory romping it onto Mcceran to greg today. easy speedy! lol or maybe it seems like you're goig fast since Im used to driving my car slow lately... haha who knows.

sperry 2010-10-31 07:43 PM

I'm pretty sure I saw Alex at Hiroba at dinner tonight. I think he looked right at me and didn't see me. :lol:

You're talking about when you were behind me at the light on McCarren turning west on Glendale? I took it easy from the light, and you were right behind me, I got up to legal speed and backed off for the turn onto Stanford. At least I don't think I was speeding?:?:?

Onto McCarren from Greg though, did that the other day from Texaco on my way home at about 6, and was actually really mellow, 2500 shifts, under speed limit as I was pulling away from everyone driving Miss Daisy.

rory_a 2010-11-02 09:40 AM

Saw Cody on 395 north to Stead lat night. Followed him a few cars back in the left lane for a few miles, and we passed each other a couple times before I got off at Stead Blvd.


Cody, I wasn't trying to get you to let me past, jsyk, I was just pacing you to keep myself under control ;)

Ha, nice seeing ya. Do you live in Stead too?

rory_a 2010-11-02 10:10 AM

Next to the golf course :)

100_Percent_Juice 2010-11-02 10:17 AM

I only get defensive when people accuse me of being defensive.

I know what it's like to drive 395 to Stead and have jackasses tailgate for 10 miles, and to tailgate for 10 miles :oops: so didn't want to come off as a dick without intending it is all :cool:

I have no issues with being accused of driving fast, I do it all too often. That said, driving "way too fast" on 395 to/from Stead is driving the speed limit apparently :lol:

Lol I never said you were speeding. I just said you took off quick.
