Nice, what springs are those? haha

Have a safe trip and keep us posted with V2.0
 
Today's activities included trips to two soccer games followed by a trip to the grocery store....complete brain fart on our part.....walked back out to the car and realized we already had four sports chairs and soccer equipment in the hatch. Needless to say the cargo cover was removed and the kiddies got to ride home with some goodies on their laps. :)

Oh yeah, got some goodies coming in the mail for the P5...
 
my p5 sat in the empty garage.... his buddy (my dog) passed away... on another note i checked tire pressure and rainXed the windshield
 
me from the spark plug thread said:
Ok no more ZFR6F-11 plugs for me.. back a step warmer to the ZFR5F-11s. Guess I really didn't need the colder plug. The car pulls noticeably better (and that's with my admittedly bad butt-dyno), and is all around a lot smoother. No more low stumbling idle either.

Anyone know what these plugs are telling me? Doesn't the plug on the top look absolutely ragged? That's after 500 carefree miles with no misfiring or anything.. just totally normal driving. The bottom plug of course is a brand new one.. the 5 heat range though.

Noticing all the crap on the threads, I did my best to get down in there and clean out.. anyone have tips on cleaning in there? My method of a rag wrapped around a 12" extension on my ratchet and just pushing it down there sorta seemed to work but there must be a better way. Do they sell like a large pipe cleaner that does that sort of thing?
so yeah I was prepping for my car's first evAr autocross :). I changed my plugs, put air in ze tires, and removed my subwoofer for the first time ever.

Oh and I finally broke my spare tire out.. literally broke it.. I'm going to have to get some stuff down there welded now ugh. I don't have any pics of that but I'll try to get some when I get back from the autocross tomorrow.

Wish me luck, I'm #331NSM :D

^^ lol @ me kicking butt in STREET MODIFIED class. I'm sure it'll be a freaking blast though. I caught the cone carving bug at Mazda Zoom Zoom Live :)

my protege is AutoX virgin for it's last night.. tomorrow morning it'll be ripping it up at RIT :D
 
supposed to have an auto-x today but its been raining all morning. ugh. I hope we can still do it today. At least i'd have a tiny advantage because my tires are great in the wet.

so sorry to hear that. I lost my buddy last year(he loved riding in the car too). It's heartwrenching isn't it.
 
I got 7th in the novice classs (65+ cars?). It was a freakin blast :D

I'll upload the pics I took later.. of course I don't have any pics of my car in action since I was in it during those periods :P
