Who else is not ready for CMP? (Page 1 of 3)

Just finished up today, actually.  We just had a lot of small stuff that kept getting pushed out,  mostly changing fluids and other consumables, that needed to get done.

We, like you, have about 5 cars that need attention.  Although the car is done, we still need to disassemble another one to bring parts.

Now when you start working on the prefect, I think I may just make some time for that...

Our motor is sitting on the garage floor and our transmission is taken apart, but we should be good.

Three of the five of us worked on the Saab for 7 hours yesterday and it's almost ready.  I just know this car isn't gonna last and I've been trying to find a used junk 86' for extra parts to take with us and have had ZERO luck!

I'm not. The 100-400mm lens I was going to rent is now unavailable til sometime in March.

I think we are a 1/2 day away from finishing the coROLLa.  It is very close.  How long the $100 junkyard blue top head lasts is anyone's guess.  Can't wait to get to CMP! 

We are starting prep on the 2nd and 3rd cars shortly, too.  The Mazdareti first, and yes, the Craptation is in the job cue for April.  I did manage to secure the donor motor'ed car over the weekend {cue Mission Impossible theme here}.  Once we remove the motor, we are re-abandoning it. 

Our team is a bit behind schedule but hopefully will be ready.

We were really hoping to burn some gas this weekend but were thwarted by engine mounts.  Ended up wasting time moving crossmembers rather than getting the engine working.  We have a cage install appointment this weekend that we will hopefully be able to drive to.

Much like our sister team above, we're also re-wiring the entire car, but more out of necessity.  Our original engine was purchased with the Biodegradable Wiring option.  It's a miracle that thing ran as long as it did.

Hell, if things really go bad, we can just drive the Libre in 3rd again.

We are up and running, not ready but running.  Went through final list of things needed today...don't worry a keg was on the list.

We are not done, at this point I'm having nightmares of frantically trying to install some part while Judge Jonny yells obscenities about ill prepared, inbred, southerners wasting his time. Hopefully finish this weekend so I can get a good nights sleep.

Us too at NL with the '61 Caddy, except it was 20 minutes AFTER the race started. I was wrong when I said we could build a Lemons car in a week, out of a non-running brakeless hulk of rusty chrome. It took a week and 20 minutes.

we're technically up and running, but then again the car drove home from nelson ledges. still had the mud on it til this weekend. mostly it's small stuff like fluids, but there's a sizable amount of theme work to be done still. it was below freezing in an uninsulated, un-heated garage until this weekend so it was pretty much just sitting.

i don't see a problem here.

you guys look much more ready than some teams we saw in the garages on friday night at CMP Fall.

edit:  "blown" hot rod lincoln?  so now you snuck a supercharger on that thing?  you cheatin' bastids.
