had a great time and it was an autox route with a the possibility of some rallye type stuff thrown in!

sorry to hold you guys up and thanks for waiting.



drove keoki47's fb and did not have any problems- and considering this is the first time i had it on the road since i bought it last fall, i am really happy i didn't have to call home for the F250 and the car trailer!

Some people suggested doing this drive again later in the year. I think that'd be great!!



Would folks be up for meeting in Federal Way and doing more driving and less stops? We'd go down Green Valley road and make our way over to 410 then come up Westbound on 12 to the USFS 25 road, then up to windy ridge.



Also thinking of doing a drive up the back way to Issaquah for a XXX meet, maybe in July, borrowing some routes from kristopher_d and some other folks. Let me know what you think.

Let me know what you think.

I would be down for doing the drive again later this year. I'd really like to be able to see a bit more of it. Thanks for organizing this drive. Hopefully I'll have the 7 running for the next one.

Thanks Big Guy, The rears are 17x8 with a +35mm offset, 235/40/17/ They are perfectly shoe horned in there. I got the only the rear fenders rolled,just this last Saturday, my tires came in on friday. Michelle and I were in the garage Saturday night putting it all together. I ended up buying the Moser GSL SE axles because they have a typical plus 40mm offset. as opposed to the 12A axles which are around a plus 15mm.

They definately are staggered, the fronts are tucked in pretty close.



BTW I have a new IPD catalog, I will save it for you.

rmriggin 05-22-2007 04:24 PM

I have been getting the ipd catalogs now also. Ever since I bought some brake pads I have been getting mailed the catalogs.

1noblerider 05-22-2007 10:07 PM

http://i60.photobucket.com/albums/h12/1nob...it/DSCN0186.jpg just one picture. I have others from the Izzies meet in May if you like to see them send me a private messege and I will get those to you.
