rain, rain, GO AWAY!

Rob - I went through the same anticipation and frustration. It will end.
We went through what seemed endless overcast, cool and dreary spring. Then, last weekend I awoke to a beautiful sunny warm day......nothing better than that first warm weather Cobra ride:D...except I had to go to the DMV for the safety inspection, and they were closed. :CRY: Nonetheless, last Tuesday was awesome, and I drove over to the DMV and got my business done (very easy in NJ). It was that next drive - back home, with everything legal, that was really awesome. Good luck..... |
Rob @ Luke,
You guys really make me jealous with how easy it is for you to get your cars registered. Here the price of the car is about 1/3rd more than what it takes to get it registerd and even now they are trying to stop that. Rob, Just make a tape of the car running and then sit in the garage and play the tape. Sounds more relastic and you can really pretend. :3DSMILE: Ron :LOL: |
Rob,
Forecast for KC is rain until Sunday. Figure the rain will head your way, so maybe by Wednesday of next week you'll be dry. |

Rob,
Good on you!!! ;) Cincinnati has been dreary since the glorious weekend and we've all had a slow, wet, chilly Spring. BUT--we'll have our day, when the Southerners are boiling, we'll be driving. Hope to make it to one of the Ohio cobraphile meets one of these days.... |

Hi Ron:
Did not understand the line in your post, "Here the price of the car is about 1/3rd more than what it takes to get it registered........" ?? Howard |
I didn't understand that either. My cost to register was $228 for the DMV, $0 for the CHP, $0 for the BAR, and $149 for the brake & light certs. It was not the harrowing experience I had anticipated. Plus, I think my car is now worth a lot more with it's legal CA registration

Rob,
Good on you squared!;) Regarding the brake pedal/accelerator pedal issue, I had the same problem. Mike Evangello at Dynamic Motorsports in Ross sandwitched on a second brake plate with a spacer in between. The whole thing was double bolted, so looking from the top it looks like a normal pedal; looking from the side you see the second pedal on top via the spacer. This is solid, correct for heel/toe, and doesn't sacrifice any strength. Perfect. Here's the url for pictures at shutterfly. This was one of the first things I did to customize the SPF; the second was adjusting the seat so my butt was lower, otherwise I felt I was sliding forward. Dynamic did that also, though eventually I added the front seat spacer from Oltoff Racing to cock the seat back and make it more comfortable. Enjoy! Shutterfly link |
