B C Posted April 4, 2018 Report Share Posted April 4, 2018 Sorry guys, but due to snow on the ground, bad weather forecast, and the fact that my exhaust still isn't done, I have decided to cancel Driving Season. Go ahead and put the snows back on or fold your mirrors in + put some Stabil in the gas tank. I've notified some other local forums and am attempting to hack the DMV database so I can email all owners with collector car plates. I'm still not sure whether to blame @suspenceful due to his turbo sucking so much air that it created a low pressure front that allowed cold Canadian air to come down. Or blame @patsbimmer1 for confusing the Wisconsin weather pattern with a car fresh from Hotlanta. Or blame @Boris3 for suggesting that we can expect snow into May here in Wisconsin when replying to a post about summer tires. Driving season 2018 just wasn't meant to be. Excuse me while I go prepare my van for the E30 picnic straight6pwr, HipMF, i_love_cars and 1 other 1 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

damnboy037 Posted April 4, 2018 Report Share Posted April 4, 2018 Only got about an inch and a half here in Greenfield (I live close to Best Buy), don’t even need to go out to shovel (only have to broom the shaded parts). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

patsbimmer1 Posted April 5, 2018 Report Share Posted April 5, 2018 You can'r place blame on is! This is an elaborate plan by you to avoid finishing your e30! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boris3 Posted April 5, 2018 Report Share Posted April 5, 2018 Hey, I just suggest probabilities based on past experience...it's all you early summer tire swap folks that tipped the cosmic balance and did this. Hmmm there was that gutted e30 ice racer up for sale a while back. Pity, by now he's probably upped his asking price. Ryan... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HipMF Posted April 5, 2018 Report Share Posted April 5, 2018 I still have snows on and appreciate the opportunity for a little slideways action. I did re-register the e21 on Monday though, so this could be partially my fault... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t want to say I was the reason for the snow but I might’ve put summers on and then drove around with the top down. Oops.

jc43089 Posted April 5, 2018 Report Share Posted April 5, 2018 Unfortunately I don't think my van will be ready for the e30 picnic. Planning to drive it to the Hawk vintage races at Road America though. Hopefully the snow is gone by then... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wally509 Posted April 7, 2018 Report Share Posted April 7, 2018 The first place I took it to shot me a price of $200 to weld that crack, just to weld it, no refinishing of the area afterward. I thought that price was SMOKING crack. That looks like a 1 hour job at most to me. I was thinking $75-$100, maybe only $50 if I did all the prep work. Taking it to a local welding guy to look at today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
