DOA???? What's the haps?

[DHall1]

ECU out for the third and final time before I throw it in the pool.

Elaborate please? Before I walk the plank.

[DHall1]

I am sure yours will be fine and you will have a spare ecu.

I got the luck of the draw and botched software even the second time around. I may have it flashed back stock.

Dave, sorry to hear the drama... I will be busy the 25th chasing the Mrs around the house.

That MIGHT be TMI but I am not complaining... :)

Dave, doesn't Scott have an "EXTRA" stock ECU around????

Not any more:)

[4everRS]

ok ok ok. As I am considering an ECU upgrade later this summer, I would love to know what happened to your ecu. ?????

[4everRS]

BTW Dave, you get another threadjack tally for this.

[ben916]

I wouldn't consider his statement(s) a threadjack as he participated last year in this Julian run.

Pat, on the other hand.................

[4everRS]

I couldn't decide who was to credit/blame.

[V8weight]

Alright, I'll add the tally.

[DHall1]

I attended Mulholland and Julian last year.

It would have been nice to get the note for Mulholland but I would not have made it because of the ECU troubles. Actually, I skipped the track day in Las Vegas last month because of the same issue...ECU and ?? as to how long it would last. Last thing I need is to travel up for a track day and pay shit loads of cash to turn the key and get a CEL and limp mode.

Dave is not a happy camper. literally

I am just bummed Julian is so early this year. I have attended every single one since 03'. Sucks to miss this one.

[DHall1]

No dude,

Julian is still in the fall.

The local RS6s may plan a spring Julian or go on this Borrego Springs run.

[AUDI5000CSTQ]

This is why I want a group SoCal Revo flash event....cost me and everyone else less.

[DHall1]

Calling all SoCal RS6 members.

Is there any Sunday in May we can schedule a Julian Run?

Or

4/25 Run with SCC Audi in the Julian area.

I have some interest but wanted to get the gang together.

[Benman]

Bummer...

May will be a no go for me, will be in WV and NV.

As for the 25th, I can't make it for already stated reasons. :)

[Holiday]

I'll be there on the 25th, and I may be up for a May event as well, depending on what work looks like around then...

Dave
I would be up for 5/23. Two days after Calls exp. by then I should have the Revo flash, and flush with cash.
Oil down $2.59 on GS news, picked up another 20 calls, might pick up another 20 on Monday.

[DHall1]

I was able to nab some of GS drop off yesterday. Sold the 160s to catch a 5.00 down to 1.05 drop. It was pretty crazy.

I also sold the 165s from 1.50 to .05c.

I wish I had the balls to short 1000 options each.

From Deeno...

Ben...
The starting / meeting place is:

Peter Piper Pizza
2983 Jamacha Rd
Rancho San Diego, CA 92019

They plan to depart that location between 8:30 and 9:00AM, so to socialize a bit you might want to be there before 8.

Best,
Deeno

Good to meet Ben and Ross. Glad Ben bent my arm a bit. Shared some info and other stuff, got some leads on who does good mechanical and body work here in North County from Dennis.

Ross, hope you had a good run with the group...I had "fun" with 20 screaming 9-10 year old girls at the bday party.

Thanks guys!

Wade and Ben- Really enjoyed meeting you both as well. You missed a great run. Fielded a lot of "RS6 questions" after the first leg. Everyone but Eric (who was already intimately familiar with the RS6) was intrigued by how the car was able to "pull" out of the corners like it did! Had very little problem keeping up with the R8, although to be fair- it wasn't exactly an open track we were on. What a handsome car the R8 is- looks even better surfing back canyon roads! The car ran beautifully, and the new DRC really impressed me. A little soft for the spirited canyon driving we were doing, but overall VERY impressive balance between comfort and sport.
We'll have to do this again soon.
