    Help! starting this project

    With apologies to all for hijacking this thread for a vent, let me answer for the last time. All mountain states have to put up with flatlanders (def: people who don't drive mountain roads well). Colorado, with no shortage of mountain roads, gets a lot of them from the states to the east...

    It's a "no-brainer" for me: go with the one that has a built-in beer holder. :chuckle Tim

    Help! starting this project

    SoCal Ah, yes; Southern California. Where I got a ticket Thursday for passing some flat-lander who couldn't start to drive mountain roads. After following this fool for some 12 miles, on Hwy 79 out of Temeculah, I finally got a half-mile straight section w/ no traffic, so I "jumped" him (like...

    WTB: XLR (Base) Airbox Part

    I need to locate a lower housing for the right-hand (passenger side) airbox for my base model XLR. The part has the following number molded into it: 25340518. Searches on the Internet for that number lead me to believe that it's also a common part in the C6 Corvettes, running the LS-2 engine...

    Anniversary

    XLVII Well, Bruce, as a couple w/ over twice the span of wedding bliss that you've achieved so far, let me say that it truly does get better over the years. Maybe it's because the years pass a lot faster, I don't know. :dunno: Maybe it's because we learn how to "fight fair", :blinzel: We'll...

    If you've named your XLR, what & why?

    This thread got me thinking. :blinzel: When I was a computer vendor, we had a customer whose secretary (Daphne) really fit the description of our cars: a whole lot up front, and not much behind; i.e., all "T" and no "A". :chuckle I guess from now on, she's gonna be "Daphne". Tim

    Rough ride

    Let me amplify on my previous post. I went from 18" non-run-flat Pirelli PzeroNero (235/50 profile) tires on the stock base rims, to the 19" "V" rims running the Pirelli run-flats. The combination of the run-flats, and the wider/lower-profile 19" tires made the ride much harsher. It was...

    Rough ride

    Larry, are you running run-flat tires? Several members here have reported how much rougher they ride, and I can attest to that first hand. I switched out the run-flats, and the difference was stark. Tim

    Vehicles that you have owned for a LONG time!

    I don't know if this counts, or not, but here's one story of a long-term love affair with a car. My buddy and I each went out on the same week in September 1964 and bought cars. I bought a top-of-the-line 1964 Plymouth Sport Fury, and he bought a custom-ordered 1964 Corvette roadster. I paid...

    position sensor

    Yeah, Dan, I'm just speculating and hoping. I get 'er back Monday afternoon, so I guess I'll know then, eh? All I know for sure is that the ONLY change I made was the rims/tires. FWIW Tim

    position sensor

    Hmmm... Just thinking... I never had that jumping/slipping when I ran my stock size (235/50/18) Pirelli non-run-flats, but I do now with the stock "V" rims running the Michelin AS/3s (255/40/19) on all 4 corners. I have it in Red Noland's shop now for a wheel alignment and to fix a small oil...

    Help with an XLR-V purchase

    Hi, Robert. I was in Red Noland after you, yesterday. That is a gorgeous "V". It has the chrome rims, and it also sports an aftermarket exhaust, too. (Not sure if it's a Corsa...) As pretty as it is, I'm glad I didn't have to drive something that impeccable through the snow, as I had to...

    Mine doesn't hit either lens, so I'd suspect your alignment is messed up. :dunno: FWIW Tim
