    Well I want to see this Jack Junkies place, so I guess I'll make the long and treacherous journey from the World Headquarters to Plano.

    Take the PGBT. Easy sailing. I know it costs money (you cheap bastard), but the cost is worth it to avoid 635 and 75 during rush hour.

    Well, we used the lifts to do some much needed upgrades to my car like putting on the license plates. This would have been a real bear if we had to actually stoop to use the screw driver.

    Lots of new faces last night. Thanks to all for coming out, and to nails and jdcanadian for helping with the lifts and such. I think we ended up with a case of leftover free beer! I'll bring it in a cooler to the next one to go with trendie's pizza.

    Looks like a nice place, cleaner than your average workshop. I'll try and make it next time.

    Very cool! Good to see some old faces and meet some new ones. All it needs now is strippers.

    Really cool place. Good to see everyone last night. I can definitely see using that place in the future, especially the tire mounting and balancing equipment!

    Glad I made it out. A little scared to get my NA on a lift but maybe next time. Agreed; definitely looking forward to being able to mount/balance. I forgot to ask if they're okay with having tires shipped directly there but I'm sure a quick phone call will get an answer. I think many will be especially excited once (i think this is a when not if) they get the "alignment" part of the alignment rack.

    Sorry I couldn't make it. I have used that place a few times and have enjoyed it. Did anyone have any issues getting up the ramp and into the shop? Not sure if the MSM will clear without scraping.

    I think my NC is the only one that scraped, and even that was just barely on the resonator. I'm pretty low; I can't use most full-service car wash places because it won't clear the wheel guides.

    I briefly scrapped as well. Not much but if you're any lower then either of us then you should start worrying.
