As for me, I did the 138 --> Big Bear run with my old RX-8 crew on Saturday in the Accord. Good times :). Saturday made me really wish I didn't have an auto-tragic trans though since the gears sucked and made it difficult to keep up with the two RX-8s. Hell, even the XB has better gearing than the Accord and even despite it's lower HP and TQ numbers, I was more on par with that than I was with the RX-8s. REALLY wish I had an MT even more now, haha.







I have a few more pictures, and I know I can get some more from some of the other guys, but for now, it's what I got. ]]> Off Topic CDsDontBurn http://www.bjorn3d.com/forum/showthread.php/50345-Went-For-A-Drive-On-Saturday-With-My-RX-8-Friends http://www.bjorn3d.com/forum/showthread.php/50326-AMD-Unleashes-First-Ever-5-GHz-Processor?goto=newpost Tue, 11 Jun 2013 14:58:07 GMT AMD (NYSE: AMD) today unveiled its most powerful member of the legendary AMD FX family of CPUs, the world’s first commercially available 5 GHz CPU...

Yeah, I know...I've kinda dissappeared from the forums. There's no excuse, but I'm pretty busy with my life and work. Working very hard and then (very) busy with taking care (and growing) of my 2 beatutiful girls.

Anyway, in a few days I'm going to have a 3 weeks business trip to San Jose, CA.

There's a good chance that during the weekends I'll spend some time travelling in and around San Francisco.

Since I'm not familiar with the city (I consider myself as a tourist) I'll be more than glad to have some kind of company and somebody to guide me through the city.

Anybody interested? :roll:

In addition, any tips/idea where to visit/travel are more than welcome...;)

This is confirmed by the brass of several large ISPs speaking out against gigabit Internet speeds in separate interviews. This morning, David L. Cohen, Executive VP of Comcast, has tossed his two cents into the discussion as well.

(CNN) -- An injury-time penalty from Keisuke Honda fired Japan into the 2014 FIFA World Cup, making the Samurai Blue the first country to qualify for next year's tournament in Brazil.

With Japan needing to avoid defeat in order to clinch one of the 32 places with a game to spare, playmaker Honda converted a late spot-kick to level the score at 1-1 after Australia had taken a surprise lead through Tommy Oar's speculative cross with eight minutes remaining.
