Have you found a good solution for getting the rubber marks out? I've used a few things and all require too much work

Seriously, just a wash and I use a soft wax (yellow wax #26) on a soft cloth. It is a lot of work but I do not want to use anything harsh.

Here are some pics from yesterday. The CO is site member LadyBoss, still shinny new (was looking for a way to swap the tires and wheels all day) Very strange valve stem caps on her car, anyone else have these or maybe the dealer put them on

There was also a brand new silver Boss there. Look at the stripes, someone was having a bad day at AAI - not good

We were parked at the end of the straight-away at PBIR on the track itself. Besides meeting other site members I really enjoyed walking around in the turns (more like study them). You get a whole different perspective doing this and I think it can change your way through them, kinda like what we did at Miller. Last pic is the braking zone off the back straight (looking backwards), funny how far away the cones are, seems you pass them and are in the turn before you can blink an eye.

Me love my shiny new car... And NO you cannot have wheels, cute little caps (very girly) or anything else off my car

Too bad I melted before auto- cross, i guess i will be having to catch up in fall and winter.

About detailing, i would like to know how much this should cost. Normally i would not consider it, but with two hurt wrists i may have to... Unless u are volunteering!!!

Maybe you can stop them from marking the surface of the body...............try some RejeX....their website is here http://www.rejex.com/

Polymer coating developed for the military. Works great on wheels to stop brake dust from sticking to the wheels.

Recommended it to a friend in my MINI days. She applied it on her wheels before she had a new set of tires mounted and balanced............and the tire shop called to say that they couldn't balance the tires...wheel weights would not stick.

GT350, nice shots. Sorry I passed up this weekend with PCA there. Perfect weather for tracking, in Sept no less! The Ford show at PB was not like years past

I LOVE the look of these wheels. Are they SVTPP with some kind of matte finish?

Your garage is too neat.

The other side is a mess with a stack of Ford Racing boxes. Good eye. It's a Litespeed Classic with Dura Ace 10 speed. The green MTB is an early Intense Spider that mostly gets ridden around my neighborhood these days.

I have a 1 yr old Cannondale full suspension "Lefty" that probably has 10 miles on it. I know the feeling.
(Sorry about the off-topic everyone)

Yeah yeah I would have preferred blue like on the original LS photos. Oh well these will have to do.

Here's my car on the left along with number two-hundred-something at the Mustangs @ the Queen Mary Show in Long Beach, CA this past Sunday. There were about 300 mustangs there. I got 1st place in my class (2010-12 Stock).
