Re: Spring Cruise, April 14-15, 2007, Duluth Weekend!
That was funny with the Saturn was blowing black smoke, I blazed by him shortly after that.
I'm glad we didn't get caught in that speed trap, maybe I/we would have gotten lucky though b/c I know a cop from that city and he has given me high speed police escorts before doing over 100 mph with his lights and sirens on and me closely behind! Speeding tickets are no fun, especially with speeds that fast. Overall a very successful weekend without one ticket or even a single encounter with the police!

Where was the speed trap? I didnt see any cops until the accident, which is good though.

Re: Spring Cruise, April 14-15, 2007, Duluth Weekend!
Hey guys got my pics up on my facebook album. The link will be below. It was a blast this weekend! Sat night I drove around the skyline for a little bit. Be better if the road wasn't so shitty. Then hit the tunnels up again for another time... or two... maybe three. They're so addicting.

I think the new battery solved it.

Re: Spring Cruise, April 14-15, 2007, Duluth Weekend!
That is a weird problem, wouldnt think a battery would affect the car that way.. the alternator should produce all the power it needs, unless it wasnt grounding properly or something.. hmm

Re: Spring Cruise, April 14-15, 2007, Duluth Weekend!
The battery wasn't the problem, it seemed to make it better, but the problem came back. I am waiting for new sparkplugs right now, they should be in today. They are a bit worn, but not horrible. Hopefully that is the problem. I am not going to have many places to test around here doing 120 like we did up there.

Re: Spring Cruise, April 14-15, 2007, Duluth Weekend!
Yeah, when I went against Brownman on the way back it went into limp mode at only 5,600 rpm. Then it will give me a rev limit of 4k. I really hope it is the plugs. It doesn't miss or anything like that, just all of a sudden does it. It is somewhat randome too, I could go to redline sometimes, then it would do it at 6k, then do it at 7k, then be fine.
