Anyone heard of Eclipse Window Tinting? I saw them at the Home and Garden show yesterday. They sounded like they knew what they were doing a laser cut the tint per model spec. Gives a cleaner edge, etc. Price seemed pretty good. Under $200 depending on material.
Wheels going over to Wheel Doctor this week to get painted. Should have them back by March 16. I asked again about limitations about car washes, etc. and they said no restrictions. Should last 5-10 years. Good enough for me.

rev to 4k is just a variation of the 3k for ~10 seconds that's in the S1 owners manual. It's to keep the car from flooding and has nothing to do with carbon. 3-4k wouldn't clear anything out regardless. Not high enough in the rpm range, and no load on the engine.
The theory behind it is that after the rev up, the extra fuel is burn off instead of puddling in the combustion chamber. The book has you hold at 3k then kill the ignition, a lot of people just rev and kill the ignition, same thing basically. The hold at 3k just warms the engine up a bit more.

Yeah I agree with Fuz on that one....it is just a safety for noobs so they don't flood their beasts, lol. Lucy has never flooded so I think I am doing something right.
Hello and welcome new 8 owners!!!
Mazdax3 - Eclipse did my tint and they did a great job I think and it has a lifetime warranty so hard to go wrong. What color 8 is new in our territory? I see a winning blue at the Fifth Third bank on 22/3 across from Tractor Supply now - must be an employee because I see it there often. Lots of 8's coming out of hibernation finally

Oh you know here and there, lol. I've been kind of a lurker on here lately.
Like Fuz said PM Lycanthrope (Nathan) or check the SCCA site. About a week or so before the first event they will open online registration on the website via the schedule page and you can preregister there or you can show up early on location on the day of the event you want to participate in. On site registration usually starts at around 8AM. Also, if you have any further questions I would be glad to help if I can or help you find someone who has an answer.

In other words, all over the place.

Fuel first then head to my place around 11:30/noon or so? Hopefully it will be relatively warm by then.

Quit your whining. I'm approaching 102k. I'm mostly in Columbus as Fuz and everyone else said. I may be back this weekend but I'm not 100% sure yet, but if so I'll be at Fuel as well.

Winning Blue is new one on the block. My Doctor's nurse picked that up from Kings a few weeks ago. Right now our CX-7 is in the shop looking for a stalling problem. Of course, it doesn't do it when it's there. Never happened to me, but the wife drives it a lot more than I do.

Maybe it's how she's driving it...
Y'all need to ease up, or Kevin's head will get even bigger than it already is. Then how's he going to fit into the 8?
I'm out around Burlington way, lots of great roads so maybe when I get home (if I can talk the wife into it, and you northerners won't mind driving down) we can meet at my place for driving and then a cook out.
As for what I do, it's a secret...It involves me being gone for a period of time, and I get to sit idle while I'm home. Mostly idle.
