Official Festiva Madness VI Meet Thread Oct. 6, 2012

[Smedley]

M3ntal, since you guessed dead on, pm me and we can work out getting you the prize money for that.

link, I already told M3ntal that it was my screw it up and I would make it right, you keep the funds.

Just want to take a minute to send BIG props out to a deserving individual.

FestYboy.

The man drove down here a day early, Thursday, to help me get my wifes car started, then drove another hour to check out Laurels car with me. Then, after I did a clutch for another Festiva at Smedley's house, He banged his knuckles on GenevaDirts car until 6:30 in the AM. The short amount of sleep didn't slow him down much in the garage after the meet Saturday, nor on Sunday, when we all got a bunch of little things done on a few cars, before he and AdvancedDynamix figured out my IAC was stuck wide open and then came up with an ingenius little work around to get my idle down to normal from the 1400 RPM's it had been running at. Not to mention we replaced my TB gasket while we were in there.

So, big ups, there, Arty. Me hats off to ya!

Thanks, I second that. Was thinking I needed to write a props to Arty for all the work he did and you beat me to it and better than I probably could. Arty, we really appreciate all the work you did this weekend.

[Stivadiva]

Pat! I don't recall seeing you there! Am I getting more senile or what?

Yes, Karl, I was there, but I didn't get to see or talk with a lot of people since I just went to the meet and not any of the gatherings at Barb's.

I want to thank everyone who brought the turbo insanity! Saturday night was a blast. We may not have found any victims (though, I think we scared off a couple of potential victims, lol) , but just the sight and sound of a gang of boosted Festivas rolling the streets together was awesome! I just wish my gopro battery had lasted long enough to capture it. Lets shoot for over a dozen turbo cars on next year's cruise.

That was the most fun I've had in mine since I got it back together. Maybe next year, I Mau have a little extra....

[scitzz]

Just got home

Sweet! Glad to here everyone is having safe trips!

that sucks....what time did you guys get on the road?

We got out about 1030 this morning after running around town to get a sweatshirt for Bobbi. Then back to the hotel for forgotten cookies, and then breakfast. The Indy crew has just split up after a (relatively) safe and uneventful trip from our mishap in Richmond. We're about 25 minutes from home, and Dennis has just under an hour left until he's home.

It was great seeing everybody and we can't wait to do it all again next year.

M3ntal, since you guessed dead on, pm me and we can work out getting you the prize money for that.

Time to enjoy the last bit of the ride home and pass out when we get there.

Yea I might get aspire manifold so I can modify later if I want turbo but a stock one would for now. I was going to drill it out and put a bolt with a nut through it.

[Ford Fester]

no problem matt. if you cant get that twisted off stud removed ill send you a whole new manifold. That way we can get a gasket in there and fix the rest of the exhaust leak. Whats your cell number?

[RhodeStiva]

Thank You Ford Fester for the help at FM6. that droneing noise is gone and it is a lot more quite on idle

[RhodeStiva]

THE CURSE! M3NTAL knows what i'm talking about

[GenevaDirt]

She snuck up on me, Karl! Indiana crew is still on the road. I just threw the alt/wp belt out on the interstate just 1 exit south of Richmond, KY. The local autozone has one in stock. Dennis and Sarah are headed there now while I babysit the car. Got a little crud around the alt pulley. Sandpaper should take care of it. Then back on the road. Spent 2 hours moving 5 miles in a traffic jam just a few dozen miles earlier. We were hoping to make it home by midnight, but it's not looking too promising now.
