Put some strips of blue masking tape across the "high" points of the front bumper, the edge above the headlamps and across the mirrors.
Bugs come right off with the tape and no rock chips.

Really? Will anyone have some? Hell I'm willing to try it. I waxed her today and makes me cringe to think it'll go to waste.

09Factor/Papa we will miss you for sure!

Ok I'm ready now. Just got the new Falken FK452's put on and they feel goooood!
Should be smooth riding to SS9.
Now I have to wash the car, so Micki say's. I don't want to because it will be dirty from the trip. I'll just clean the windows and wheels for now. OK ,,I'll wash the car. Dang.
She can pack then.

Man that was fun. But we need to change it to two half days! I am so burnt out by noon, I need to get some rest and a beer!

At the beginning of the next day I regret not getting around enough! I love the event but dam, there is a lot going on at one time!

I loved it and am ready to do it again next week!

My first Sevenstock and it was G R E A T!!!! HUGE success, very well organized, two days would be awesome. Can't wait to go back. I think pools' remark "Rotary overload" is right on. So much to absorb, and not enough time.
Thanks to everyone!!!

I'm sitting on my patio, big cup of iced coffee in hand, and my head is still swimming.
Complete and total overload.
I spent almost the entire drive back from LA playing all of the images of the weekend in my head.

I love you guys!

MM you did look pretty happy on the way home yesterday... It was good having you with us!

After looking at RG blog, I wish I had checked MazSport's booth out a little more. That is the first big thing I missed. I am sure that several more will come to light.

MM we need to talk some about Scott's kit. I am thinking about turbos now (the 350 to 400 HP figures have me interested - I need to do the math to see what it takes to get to 4 secs 0 to 60). And maybe after a couple of years of thinking I might invest!

Still excited two days later!

Yeah, Scott's stuff is incredible. If I were starting over, his kit is the way i would go.

Gotta go and clean the car up - I hit some HUGE bugs...

Go back to the room and take a nap, then come back for the awards and raffle That's what Maniac did (he took the mascot back actually and then came back a few hours later). Good idea and youd feel a lot better. It was only like 1 1/2 blocks from our room. Hopefully you still had tons of fun tho! You were smiling plenty!

Are you guys talking about MazSport? They had goodies priced at $8k on the flyer they left on my windshield. Jeffe19007 did you go and meet Richard Paul at his tent? He makes the Axial Flow Short Shifter and is working on a supercharger or turbo (sorry I forget which and am too tired to go look it up).
