WOW.... a car that beautiful and you autocross her?!?!?!?! Dude, you have STEEL marbles. Screw that, TITANIUM marbles. Dang... I know it would be a waste of a car, but if I owned that thing, it would be on a turnstyle car display - just pivoting in my garage for me to drool over.

The battery in our truck died on us Saturday night when we stopped at Sheetz. A kid at the gas station tried to help us out with his old beat up Camry (can't say anything bad about it, he tried to help us out), but didn't have the juice to do anything. We caught an Uber home and came back with the Mustang and jumper cables. WHAM, fired right up first try!

1. Put the catalytic converters back in for inspection this week
2. Put the black powdercoated Borla axle backs back on after powdercoater fixed the coating on them under warranty
3. Changed the oil
4. Fixed the illumination on my pillar gauges. I tapped a wire behind the headlight switch and the tap I used was too large and only making intermittent contact.
5. Cleaned and oiled the air filter
6. Put in the LED headlight kit I bought last summer
7. Changed the oil in the supercharger
8. Emptied the catch cans. Passenger side bone dry. Driver side about 3 ounces.
9. Put the front license plate back on
10. Discovered a bad injector on cylinder 6

^ She looks good in the dark, MF.


Maybe that didn't come out right...


Yesterday I had the rare opportunity of parking next to a car cooler than mine:

I don't think so but it was tastefully tricked out. I didn't hear it run but it looked nasty with some very beefy rubber on it.

Finally got my oil separator catch-can installed. No more worries about the turbo getting gummed up. That happened to my dad's VW turbodiesel years ago and I remember how it struggled to climb hills.
