If you're doing a meet-up of Saleens in the OC on some Sunday, let me know. I'll cruise down from Manhattan Beach...

Furthermore, the little reserve that saudi arabia has now is mostly a heavy oil that until recently couldn't be refined. Combine that with hedge fund managers entering the market because of the lack of excess supply and the price is artificially inflated.

Add that to what jazzer said about lack of oil refineries and you've got a $1 increase in gas over the last year.

If the hedge fund managers get spooked and cash out then they could pull out and cause a dotcom-like crash. Or (more likely) oil companies will increase refinery capacity to get in on these high prices and eventually it'll come back down some. Setting up new refineries and exploring for oil takes time.

The US is the 45th cheapest country to buy gas in despite all these high prices. Sierra Leone is the most expensive - $18/gallon there...

-Economist igloo

We now return you to useless facts about your car....

The tonneau cover in my Saleen is secured onto the car by two means. First, it slides into the back near where the convertible top is and clamps down. Second, there are two seatbelts that dangle from the underside of the tonneau which you hook into the back seatbelt buckles.

as a side note Evil that is a great shot of your car btw.. Not the real Batmobile but the Batmobile clone.... As far as numbers and HP go then I am screwed as my number is only 231. I wish I had an 07 car where they have numbers up to 1500. My Car would probably fly..

Peace.

I can meet Sunday but would prefer to avoid Hooters due to the Angels game. How about Canyon Inn? 6821 Fairlynn, Yorba Linda. 1:00?

Dammit, I'm going to the Angels game this Sunday, so I can't join in the Saleen fun. Oh well, if you guys choose another date in future, please post something on the boards!

We can make it for May 11 but that is mothers day. The Angels are out of town that day too. Does that 11th or the 18th work?

I was going to mention, there better be a strange and useless factoid coming out of this conversation.......but I guess the address of the Canyon Inn will have to do

Ok, here is a useless fact?..... Had to delivery a car to an overseas shipping company on Wed. Well it ends up being a couple of streets over from one of our old racetracks from the 90's. I glad to see that there is still some rubber down

p.s. I do not condone street racing anymore!

Boy! You think the city would have re-coated that street just to discourage more deviants like Casey who sees fit to post all day long when he should be working like me.
