    When the water goes away, you start operation "De-Bag"

    We are going to loose the bags this year. Me and my "step dad" or what ever are goign to figure out a more perminant solution this summer.


    The person that did the first survey if my area screwed up and said we where 2feet higher then we really are(2 other companies where out yesterday and today that where all withing 2-3inches of each other, and the county) so we went from high and dry into panic mode. We have 7 semi loads of sand and close to 20 cement trucks full drop sand in the 7 houses we did today. Since my mom is the HR person for Aggregate, hopefully we will get lucky and have some equipment help for getting rid of the sand.

    we filled 3 million sandbags in 7 days.

    when they told people to stop last night because we had enough people didnt want to.

    thursday morning they said they needed 5000 volunteers and were 500 short. within a few hours there were 1500 more people ready to help.

    this community rocks.

    Huston Engineering came in the neighborhood in moorhead where I've been workin all week and told us they made a mistake with the measurements. They said we were all at 43 feet instead of 42 feet and that we can stop sandbagging. They admitted the next day that they lied so other neighborhoods could use some extra resources because our neighborhood was being so productive. Talk about a bunch of BS! That really makes you second guess who you can trust.

    =) I had HKS Carbon TI exhaust on my 02 wrx =) I loved it but I'm going with the perrin performance exhaust and as far as suspension I've looked at the HKS Hipermax III Coilovers. I really like those rims and I am going with gold for sure!! I like your ideas! =) Thanks!

    Chuck you don't have two subarus! The other one is just a big lie, like jeremys STi(which is coming back soon ;) )


    I have been thinking of trying to do a big WRX thing at my shop one day if I can get it figured out and have no one else cars there that day. And pack like 12 WRX's in there.

    i may take you up on that offer later this summer.

    cant come to a cruise as i work that night.

    rain is in the forcast for sunday. only a 40% chance right now, though.

    we should get more local subaru people out to the fairgrounds this summer for a autocross.

    Greg....were you the guy known as "Rally Greg" back in the Type-R days? I only knew one guy named Greg w/ a subie in Fargo. If so, do you still do the Rally-X thing?

    yep that is me.

    i do, but not as much as before. i sold that white car with the stickers to my brother and we gutted it and made it into a dedicated rallyx car. i drive a maroonish 94 legacy turbo now.

    what were you driving back then? what happend to Caleb?

    Was it a painted sideskirt? If so and the other 2 are non-painted watch to see if they suddenly get side skirts. Sign up on tintmasters.net. That is the GF forum.

    Hey guys,

    I live in Grand Forks and may possibly own a WRX in the near future, may also be living in Fargo soon too :biggrin: Anywho, I'd also definitely be down for some meets. Barely any of my friends are into cars so I'd love to meet some of you. Lemme know if anything is ever set up in Grand Forks, since it wouldn't be until this Fall that I move to Fargo. Thanks!

    how much time is spent driving around and how much time is spent parked and hanging out?

    driving around really isnt my thing at 17 mpgs and premium in the SS. plus i am old and married with kids.

    Most of the time is spent in parking lots usually.
