If GM had any inkling on how to run their company and wasnt jewing me out of a ball joint for God knows how long, I'd be up for it. At this rate, I dont know if Im going to get back this year to run in the cool weather like I wanted. Fuck GM.

How bad is it? I have one on order but haven't noticed any performance degradation at this point, just a clunk noise.

[NYG8GT]

When I hit the brakes from speed, I get a pretty noticeable vibration in the wheel. Its enough to make me think that going 100+ and then stressing it by hitting the brakes probably isn't one of my safest ideas lol. Its not about performance degradation, its about safety. I dont need that thing failing on me at any speed.

[majesticix]

holy hell. Yeah I'm not getting any vibration...yet :)

Probably best you stay clear then haha...

Ok, I'm not saying I'm going cause every other time I said I would I punked out.

But my car is at New Era now checking out the tune for a possible 1-2 flare issue. If I pickit up on Friday well... we will see how it goes.

[majesticix]

and I just had a 2-3 flare. Had to get a TCM reflash from the dealer and then Mike re-tune it. No more flares at this point...

[GeoffA]

I should never have posted. Not 10 minutes later from the post above Mike calls me. Seems as though my 1-2 shift is Fucked. So right now I'm tune LESS and 110 miles round trip added to my car. I have to go to the dealer with it in the morning. THIS SUCKS.

6L80E = WORST TRANSMISSION EVER

What the hell happened to the trusty 4L60E? Or hell even a 200r4? Jesus, this shit is ridiculous. THIS IS 2009 GM C'MOOON!!!!!!!!

I was thinking of going. If a few G8's are there I'll deff go.

[majesticix]

myself, and two other G8's from the other board are coming. I met up with one guy on Saturday. Should be 3 G8's going at this point.

[jab336]

If this monsoon shit ever stops I'll be there.

[majesticix]

haha yeah really. Friday looks good so far, if the track isn't under 3 feet of water by then...
