I'm bring a 20-ton press. Anybody who needs to use it is welcome to track down Police Brutality's paddock stall and have at it.

What kind of things are you guys dragging out?

Re: Special Tools at CMP

nothing special.  air comp and tools, sawzall, etc.  knock on wood, we do not have anything to do to the car before the race, so we'll walk around and try to lend a hand where needed after tech inspection.  we might need to use the tire machine.  i'd defintely tip ya a few bucks or some beers for that.

Re: Special Tools at CMP

Awesome, we will do some bartering.


We had to sacrifice all the fancy tools for room for more important things like the keg and beer pong table. This is Lemons for gods sake.

You clearly need a larger convoy. Bring booze AND tools!

Re: Special Tools at CMP

If I load it up, you are welcome to borrow it!!  It would take too long to list everything....  I intend to clean a large portion of my shop out.  If I am not busy, you can just ask and I will be glad to help anyone if you need it. 

On second thought, you can't take our heater,  but you can stand around it with us.  The womenfolk would not like their warmies disappearing.....

Why do you think that we aren't bringing more tools?  Well, that and the 4 gallons of chili we are bringing for the contest.

Re: Special Tools at CMP

This is my first Lemons reply but our 3rd race.  We have a engine hoist, sledge hammer, sawzall, duct tape, rain X  and 5 heaters.  First priority is staying warm then keep the car running.  We also have a complete E30 in boxes - minus body.  We will be at the track around 4pm on Thursday and have our shelters setup shortly after that.  Stop by if you need heat or beer.  We should have the movies playing by 7ish.   Super Troopers Racing - 10x20 shelter with blue tarps for walls.  Should be on the corner existing the track - same as the last race.  We might hang Ursula on the shelter for a landmark.

We also have Chili coming -

Re: Special Tools at CMP

We will have a projector. Team Top Gear. Car #78, Black Nissan 200SX with white racing stripes.

EVERYONE is welcome to stop by for beer, food and friends! We will have every tool listed above minus the 20ton press. In addition, I am an unemployed Mechanical Engineer that can lend you free advice or just talk over your head about all things mechanical or electrical. If you're a chemical engineer, stay out of our pits.

Re: Special Tools at CMP

I'll have a 40" avaliable if you don't find a projector; I'm sure we can interrupt the Top Gear for some cage fighting. Are you going to have enough bandwidth on the track's wannabe-dialup DSL connection?

Re: Special Tools at CMP

This is our 3rd one of the season and our second one of a foot or more. They are even calling for more on Tuesday. Getting that much at one time is rare for us here in the DC area.
