Smile Farewell - Sorta!

Gang - I just got my PM from Ethan about stepping down as an Electronics Moderator & I agree. I haven't been active ( or helpful ) enough lately to justify hanging on to the job when there R others out there who can easily replace me. Can't go just yet w/o some props. Thanks to everyone who entrusted their cars to my advice & opinion. Hopefully I didn't steer ya too far off course. This has been probably the easiest Forum to moderate as there have been very few disagreements which required Moderator intervention & for this I/we thank you! Also, thanks to Pete ( Retrodrive ) for stepping into the Mod shoes this past year. He's very knowledgable & I encourage all to pick his brain. Lastly, where would I be w/o my tag team partner Percy?! P, we've been together since the old EZ Board days, haven't we? Although U never QUITE convinced me to replace my Focals with Dyns, there's an excellent chance that my next ryde ( another 'Vette or a G35 - supercharged, of course!! ) will feature them. Best of luck in school, my friend!
In closing, it's been an honor & a privilege to serve you Members as an Electronics Moderator.

BTW - I never said I was leaving the CL family. Ya'll can't get rid of me THAT easily!!

Get yourself the G35 brochure. Our buddy Linda is on page 2 and 3 of the small cutout pages. Very tempted to print out a 16x20 on a lightjet printer for you (famous "book" shot...last page...but the wife would kill ya!

Keep in touch ol buddy!

MG...I do hope you hang aroung man. You are one of those rare people this board has a lot of love for. Looks like you have pretty cool plans for your future cars! I would be totally happy with a supercharged G35 myself. It was a pleasure to be in the same team for a while...sad to see you go

Talking HA-HA!!!

Ron - I'd forgotten about OUR future Forum ( but U know how bad my memory is!! ) Want to help co-moderate it with me??

Gary - Nope, despite what my sig says I'm still in Cajunland. I need to remove the Moderator title anyway.

Master P - Those were some names outta the past, aren't they! I'm fairly sure that I'll go DynAudio with the Infiniti. Remember that I HAVE heard the 160 series ( in Houston ) so I am suitably impressed. Just gotta figure out the door sizes. Aren't cars funny - don't even have it yet ( nor have I decided between my 2 choices ) & am already planning a system. U COULD send me lovely Linda's pics since the wife & I R still separated. Maybe I can move up north & meet "SuperMom"!!!!

Not sure CL (or the world) is ready for us to moderate an old fart's forum. Do you really want to relate to the young'uns what a HEMI really is or what driving a car with drum brakes and maybe a front stabilizer bar was really like?

Supercharged G35 or a new vette? Shucks, it sounds like you owe yourself the vette. And wouldn't it be nice to be looking for headers for something where they will be considerably less than $1300 a set (if you can find them) and have wheel wells for serious rubber?
