[Norman Clemmer]

He said he woke up at 2,3 & 4am . We can't call LPE unitl 9am and then they will send someone to pick us up. Guess who's pacing the hotel lobby?


Guy - BTW Tammy the CruiseFest check is in the mail.

Breckfast at the little dinner at the light on the main drag where your turn into Lingenfelters is all that bad.

I wondered about that. I'll have to try them out some evening when I'm passing through. I've used the shopping center lot for :z before late at night.

Enjoy the trip home.

Spoke with the boys awhile ago.

Remo said QuickSilver was calming down by the time he got into 5th gear.

Sounds like traction control is working overtime!

Lingenfelter Performance Engineering turned the car over to me today. Test data shows 450 H.P. with 389.1 @rear wheels - torque is 371.5. Cam sounds good at idle and is easy to drive through town. Cars additude begins to change wildly from 2800 RPM on. Traction control system sends "unhappy" signals to the the DIC between gear changes at full song. The car really starts to grow new lungs at higher RPM's and shift point have been elevated to 6500. Very fast, very smooth and a blast to drive.

Guy is updating the Lingenfelter Chronicles blog and is having some issues with picture uploads (his laptop and the hotel server are not playing nice together). He's working on it so hopfully you all can see today's pics soon.

Talk to you all tomorrow,
Remo:cool

I just love induced schizophrenia . Things aren't fun until traction control starts complaining. I hope you'll give a ride or two at Cruisefest.

That was the active handling screaming.... or was that me??
Silly man didn't know you have to point it straight before nailing it in first.

Have a safe trip home!

You have really got me thinking about mine. I'll be anxious to hear how your long drive turns out.

Absolutely awesome; I just knew it would be. All that power and I bet you can feel at your finger tips. Are you all home yet?

Take care, and I can't wait for the next edition of the LPE Chronical

Be safe,

At 6:30pm we are safe and sound back in MA. I drove Remo's car about
80% of the time today while Remo just sat there listening to the sounds
of his car. Like I said on the blog:

YEAH, BABY! I GOTTA GET ME ONE OF THESE!!!!otfl

Very nice web page, Guy. I got a chuckle out of this:

If you notice, 6shooter pulls up in the limo a dark shade of silver.

"If you notice, 6 Shooter pulls up in the limo a dark shade of silver."



The boys told me they were going to say something about the big unit's color. :eyerole

Ya know, it's the darkest shade of silver I've ever seen! otfl

6.6 Turbo Diesel - I'm sure it would be much faster if it was Millennium Yellow!

Remo and Guy,

Good to hear your back home safe and sound. Quite an honor driving "Quicker Siver back home while Remo listened to the "Top Ten" of LPE, music to the ears I'm sure!
