Anyone from the USMB near Bothell last night?
carfreak85 replied to edrach's topic in Meet n' Greet. Your USMB Welcome Center
Tisk tisk Ed, you should know my car by now! Sorry to hear about your results, but at least YOU got to compete! I'm so used to driving between Bellevue and Bellingham that is doesn't seem that far anymore. -

Ed, I've got to be honest, I knew it was you the moment I saw the wheels on your Brat! My girlfriend was talking to me on our way back to Bellingham and I caught her mid sentence with, "Oh my God, a BRAT! Wait a second... IT'S ED!!!!" I figured you wouldn't recognize me, but I tried my best to remind you! It was good to see you! By the way, how did you do in the rallycross? -

Does anyone have a favorite brand of wheels bearings? I'm looking to change the bearings when I change my brakes. Any brands better than others? Thanks for the help! Galen

Think of a switch blade knife, but a key instead. -

Well after much trash talking by a certain Gen 1 owner (*COUGH* Wagonpowaa *COUGH*), it has officially been settled. An EA81T wagon (Full of options and a 13 y.o. passenger will smoke a 1980 BRAT with a weber. It was close, as in within a car length, through 2nd gear. However, after 3rd, there was no contest. The wagon cleaned up on the BRAT and left no doubt about who won. We also both raced a friend's 1965 Mini Cooper with a '98 spec (98hp, carb'd) motor which beat the BRAT soundly, but is currently tied with the wagon at one win each. Stay tuned!
