hmm, in the process of putting stuff back together i bumped the lock on the door and now it seems as if it does not want to lock.
my remote does nothing even when the car is off, it stay unlocked. if you push the switch for the lock it pushes itself right back out... any ideas?

And amazingly enough the locks fixed themselves?! Anyway on to the even better news, my driver side door is RATTLE FREE!!!!!!!!! (for now). The passenger side door had great results as well however i can still hear one of the foam cubes squeeking when im around 25-30 on volume

Nice bumpstop comment.............![Lol](https://www.rx8club.com/images/smilies/lol.gif)
Steve, I see Tony already offered his helmet. I have an extra also, size L.
Helmet City is an online retailer with really good prices and is reliable, i've bought quite a few things there.
So far for Nelson's who's in???
1) Tony
2) Doc
3) Vyndictive Steve
4) Brian???
5) John ???
6) Tom ???
?????
Did Mid Ohio yesterday. VERY humbling. Every time I try something new, I learn just how much I don't know.
Car did fine. Thanks for the list RK.
My instructor was good. The first classroom session was good, but the other classrooms were complete wastes of time. They were so basic as to be uninformative. Then they completely missed any discussion of driving technique.
Don't forget first NORA autocross next weekend.
I may do BeaveRun the day after Nelson also, if anyone is interested. Brian?
Apparently, I need to start a fourth business to pay for all this driving.

I'll start checking the thrift stores for used helmets since few people here have them. Free lice with every purchase!
On another note, I need spark plugs. Time to research....

Jon John or anyone else is welcome to ride with me. As I said, I have 1 extra size large open face helmet for anyone who needs. I bought an extra for passengers. It's actually fun to watch. That's where I met Tony. There was another guy, scats, from the group there, but he moved away. He was a nice guy.
I also bought some speed bleeders since I'm starting to push the car a little harder.
Anyone going by Summit Racing before the meeting on the 24th? I need some brake fluid picked up.

My son took a pic of my car. Not a good as John's usual pics. Can you maybe give him some lessons.
I have a video of my last session if anyone wants to see the course down there. It's too big to email though.

I went back and looked at the pictures from last year at Nelson Ledges with Tony, I and Scat. Hard to believe they are on page 9!!!!! Amazing.\
They played this video of a formula F1 driver taking his wife for a ride around a track. It is hysterical to watch her facial expressions as the ride goes on while he is cool as a cucumber on a Sunday drive.
