As much as you all like to bitch and complain about our traffic here, I have to say that after being in Alabama and Wisconsin over the last week, you don't know how good you've got it.

Now, my average commute is about 10-15 minutes from around Piedmont Hospital, to Chamblee Dunwoody road and PID. A straight shot up Ptree. Today was one of those nice cool mornings and although the traffice was medium, myslef, some suit in green honda accord, a chick in a passat, and a soccer mom in a black tahoe with chrome 22's were all hooked up and rolling. Clearly all of us were seasoned as we all went cruising around the "rocks in the stream". 65 mph through the bar district, completely fluid, all green lights. :buttrock
Out of the bars to the straight away, up to 75, and lost the accord at the piedmont/ptree road intesect. Oh well. Back up to speed, and on to the twisties. The passat hung on the longest, but was no match for R compounds and an M suspension. I loose them all and blast on up through brookhaven. Past marta and opens up the high speed straight.

Up to 100, and what to my wandering eyes do I see, but a bad ass 645i gaining on me. I grab the camera and snap a shot as we come up on
the stadium. He soon hooks a left, and out of nowhere a E46M is on my tail. Back to cruising speed, we slip and dip around the people reading thier newspapers while driving, and I finally pull off at Chick-fil-A for some refreshing lemonade and a bird biscuit.

Fantastic morning. A couple of pics to help you awaken your sleepy eyes.

I've have a pic of that car on my camera phone from when I was at Lenox a few weeks ago. Since then I have seen 2 other full-on ACS 645i's

you don't know how good you've got it.

:eek: don't tell that to anyone dealing w/ 400, 85, 75, the connector, or really anything else on a daily basis! :(

I know, it sucks. I'm on those freeways a lot in the morning, But for those of us who live in the city, we get to be on the other side of the wall cruising along, trying not to get nabbed by jonny law.

I've never understood the appeal of the suburbs, unless I owned a helicopter and could fly to work.

I feel super spoiled - 4.5 minutes to/from work. I can actually see the the building (P'tree towers) from my apartment.
But I've paid my dues trying to get to Tech from Acworth and back.
I must admit I love living in the city.

I have 2 commutes. One is 8 miles, takes about 30mins since there is plenty of traffic (Roswell-Interstate North Pkwy), the other is 30miles (Roswell-Duluth). The quickest way is the highway 285-85 North. After Ashford Dunwoody. I can maintain 90mph.

Unichip out. Tec3r in, and getting tuned as we speak.

thats one way to put it

Well bret was talking unichip up so much that I thought it was actually really good...but I guess that wasnt the case...

I had great success with it when I was N/A. It added 30 rwhp right away. I have heard of another car with it that's turbo and putting down serious numbers.

We were playing around with a new version and new software that has not even been released yet. It might have worked for my turbo set-up. Might not of.

Tec3r will definitely work. He's going to try to have it done by tomorrow night. We'll see. Probably Sunday after road testing. He's re-wiring the coils right now, due to Electromotive's recommendations. Apparently the stock wiring can create some problems. We'll see.
