Thx Jon, Greg, Superchargedg, the pics came out great; we missed you guys on the cruise. There are so many more excellent pics to share. I will have the link posted up once I get them.I wish you guys make whenever we do this again. We just need to get Al on board again :tup:

LOL Randy, it was very easy to restrain myself with the pics of THAT white car, such an ugly car :rofl2: I love the shots of your roadster and there are plenty more coming your way :p Hey how funny was that poor lady getting blasted by 12 cars at once and the one lady on the swinging chair who got spooked by the WRX backfiring loudly past her house.

HAHAHA Shahid, those guys were so much fun, we had a blast listening to their stories at hooters; they took the time to stop during their storytelling and let Randy's daughter know that she shouldn't be like them; and that alcohol gets you in trouble. She had the "I sure as hell don't plan on acting that foolish like you" look :icon18: Yes, I do agree with you about getting plenty of sleep next time so you don't run into any imaginary truck ;)

Ryan, there are so many great pics of all coming once the pics from the other photographer are compiled, it is safe to say most will be satisfied with them :tup: Al truly did a fantastic job with the organization; we never got split and never had any issues with enforcement.

Before anyone gets the wrong impression, we passed the lady because she was doing 40 in a 55, we passed on a road with a dotted yellow line with no oncoming traffic and clear forward visibility.

Great cruise, great people, great pics! Thanks for organizing it, Al.

I'm glad I missed part of stage 1. I was running late so I had to figure out how far ahead you guys and skip ahead in the route. I'm parked at the side of the road and next thing you know I hear all these engines and I look in my mirror and a train of awesome Zs pass me by.

Props to the photo crew. We must've all looked like rock stars with these guys hanging out their sunroofs snappin cool pictures of us. (And randomly dressing up in a banana suit) lol

haha +1 for the banana suit

Good to see everyone again, great meeting the new people, thanks to the photographers, and props to Al for putting together a great cruise! Also the weather couldn't have been more perfect!

Yeah I'm glad I didn't hit limp mode. I reached 255 on my oil temps at the most. If it was hotter, I might have it 260.

Time for an oil cooler!!!

I was hitting 240° and I have an oil cooler... Time for an oil cooler fan...

My temps stayed reasonable all day.

b1adesofcha0s 07-17-2011 04:23 PM

Mine averaged 240 throughout the day. Somewhere near the beginning and when we were on Pretty Boy they peaked at 255.

Ahhh the benefit of having clean air all day!!!

:icon18: Lazywolfe, I forgot about the banana suit, I can't wait to see the pics for that one too. About the temps, mine never went past 220; that's pretty wild that even with the oil cooler you were hitting 240 Kirk, then again you were pushing that supercharger, everyone was in awe with the pshooooshhhhhhh sound :tup:

Ok Randy, I'm bad, one more teaser :icon17:

Nice photo...

The oil cooler is in an poor spot for good airflow. hence why I want to put in a fan...

birdmanx1 07-17-2011 05:40 PM

Got it, hopefully the fans brings the temps where you need them ;)
