    Originally from Corning NY with a lot of family in the Lawrenceville, Tioga, Mansfield area.

    Very familiar with Tioga have done a bunch of hunting and snowmobiling in that area.

    I do miss a good Hoagie every since I left the north - at least I get trips up there every once in a while to get one.  In the south you get Subway, Jimmy Johns and Substation II, but nothing like a Pudgies, Vincenzo's, Rico's.   Anything from Williamsport, PA up through the Finger Lakes region of NY has some of the best Hoagies you could ask for and a lot of Pizza places that still have real brick ovens.   Now, I'm hungry - Thanks Rich.

     

    I was just in Williamsport Thursday and Friday for work.  They do have some great sub shops!!!  Are you from that area?

  3. After destroying my snowblower yesterday by hitting something buried in the snow(apparently previous owner thought shear pins were optional and used regular bolts).I had to run out and get a new snowblower as we have a snowstorm coming today.  My wife laughed when I got home and immediately got my polisher out as it had factory swirls in it.  After that I used ceramic spray coating on everything and then used ceramic boost.  I shouldn’t have to use silicon spray in the shoot now.

    I believe he states that’s it is refilled with regular DS

     

    I looked up that listing and I don't see where he says it is refilled.  If he had it there and removed it that is BS.

    I have wondered this exact same thing! If we can make washer fluid with GC. One thing I can say for sure, if your running sealant and using boost in addition, the windshield cleans very easily with just water in the washer tank so having a washer fluid isnt really needed. Just some good ol water, then you dont have to worry about decreasing the life of the sealant 

     

    Using water does work great for you folks in Florida, but I know in the Northeast that would create a problem for at least 3 months a year :)

    You may find some videos of newer cars , not ricers, or even older cars doing stuff., But the registered pre-76 cars had VERY VERY little to do with it.  Misinformation is a dangerous thing.

    I agree that misinformation is dangerous, hence the reason I was correcting you.  It appears we will not agree on this and that is ok.  I personally have no affiliation with either group just an outside observer.  If you ask the folks that used to go to H20 they would tell you it was the people that didn’t even go to the show that caused problems.  It is funny because both groups are way more similar than they realize.

     

    From what you post on the forum I have respect for you and usually agree with you.   Have a great night.

    This year brought huge changes to the town. The city went before the state and asked for permission to implement "special event zones" along Coastal Highway.  Reduced speed limits with double or triple fines. And the police have the right to impound tubbed cars, or anyone they feel is outside of Maryland motor vehicle laws.  Costs a minimum of $1000 to get your car back.  The zones are only enforced for Cruisin,  Bike Week, and Endless Summer Cruise In.  The reason that they did this is because for the last several years, there's been an event in Berlin Md. called H20i  and it was supposed to be only for VW and Audi enthusiasts.  Well, the first few years went great. But then word got out to the rowdy "ricer" boys who had nothing to do with VW's or Audi's, but decided this was the perfect time to bring their souped up, tubbed Mitsubishis and Hondas and Toyotas , etc. to town and just generally raise Hell.  And they did.  Two years ago it got so bad that property was destroyed, residents and visitors were terrorized, and there weren't enough cops to handle it.  It cost the city several million dollars to repair all the damage. So they worked with the organizer of H20i, and he cancelled the entire event last year. But that didn't stop the boneheads from returning to OC for the sole purpose of causing mayhem.  And they succeeded last year.  It was worse than the previous year.  A cop was run over, people were attacked, and there were major arrests.  The entire town, residents and business owners alike, demanded that the city do something about it.  Hence, the Special Event Zone laws.  And they were enforced this year for Cruisin in May.  And it cut way back on the burnouts and show offs.   The H20i event has been moved to Atlantic City NJ for this year, but according to the rowdy bunch's group page on FB,  they're still planning to head to OC at the end of September again this year for the sole purpose of showing that they're above the law. Don't know what the response is going to be by the city if they do.  Hopefully it's all just a bunch of talk.  But I doubt it. These kids don't have a whole brain between them.

     

    While the majority of this is accurate the crusin and endless summer cruise crowd had just as much to do with the decision for "special event zones" as the H20i folks did.  Yes the kids were racing up and down coastal, but so were the crusin folks.  Just search youtube and you will see just as many videos of cars doing burnouts in traffic at the cruisin events as H20i.   It comes down to a small subset of the group ruining it for everyone.  Unfortunately, the lack of respect is far to common these days from both young and old.
