Brian,

Gosh. Amazing.

Conor's idea is outstanding. Go spend 50 bucks on a web cam -- shoot, we can all pitch in and get you one to broadcast live!! I want to see/hear it. We all do. I'd be honored to host it, or maybe you want John to since Rennlist has played such a big role in the phoenix, but either way, let's do it!

July's issue is all yours Brian. It ain't Excellence, but I'd be honored!

-Matt

Does anyone know how to go about getting Brian's car & story in Excellence? I think it would make a great feature. Do they have an email address? We could flood them with requests.

If I cannot get the camera up here for the run in, I'll snag a mixer and some studio mics and get some quality sound.

Hey Brian!

I ordered my plate + frame from:

<a href="http://www.autoplates.com/prod027.htm" target="_blank">http://www.autoplates.com/prod027.htm</a>

here is a copy of my email to them:
Hello! Please DO NOT SHIP via UPS. They charge excessive brokerage and customs fees to Canada.

Please ship USPS or whichever other company doesn't charge brokerage/customs.

Please include the German "D" and EU stars, as well as the little circle stickers above and below the "-" in "S-PR 951"

Feel free to contact me at rsandor@shaw.ca

Thank you very much!
Rich Sandor

-They responed and said they would ship USPS, and didn't say anything about not being able to attach some stickers. I don't care if they are peeled off a demo plate. The examples shown have the stickers, so if it arrives with no stickers, I'm going to bitch and moan until they send some.

and if they STILL don't ship stickers, I will peel them off the VW Golf parked outside. (He also has EU stickers) That jackass's car alarm goes off for no reason all the time when I'm trying to sleep. And the last time I told him about it, he told me to **** off.

Perry,

Very nice!

What is the thread on the fitting on the end of the fuel rail? I think someone here posted metric 12 x 1.5 in the archives, is that correct?

Where did you find the hardware (I am having a hard time locating a source for metric fuel-line related fittings).

Thanks!

I'll be driving it there.

I got the gauge, hose, and adapeters from Alan C. He had the hose made up, and happened to find the right fitting for the fuel rail.

Not sure the thread pitch or size....

Brian, That is simply amazing. Makes me want to drive to Ohio to the fest just to see her. Can Alan C. make up some more of those, sounds like some interest here. I know I am. And once again, stunning....
