Welcome Dan.
Congrats on the 8. Pics or it didn't happen! We've been a little dead down here lately, but hopefully we can get a meet together while we're you're in town. If not, check out Fuel Coffee on a saturday morning when you're around. I've posted detail in this thread multiple times, or you can pm me for details.
Enjoy your 8!

So close...the real question is which car I should drive to Fuel first? The wife said she has two cars to clean before I get home, hopefully she remembers where the car wash bucket is so she doesn't try washing them with my grout sponge again.

Main thing to remember when putting a fluid into a combustion chamber is not to overdo it and caused hydraulic lock. If you let it get sucked in a little at a time while the engine is running you won't have a problem. There is at least one how-to on here that should help you out.
Anyone else have a problem with not being seen? My wife told me three times in the past week she has been behind someone getting on the freeway, and when she pulled out to pass them they started drifting over into her. I told her to hit the go pedal quicker, or maybe she should stop driving like a lunatic. That just got me a "Whatever."

I very frequently don't get seen, especially during evening rush hour. There are 3 spots that 2 lanes merge into 1 on my way home and lately I've been counting the cutoffs and panic maneuvers at each spot. Mostly it's SUV's, mini vans and Camry's or other generic transportation. Sometimes I push the issue to see if I can make them drop their phone/food/drink/other distraction. What really bothers me isn't not being seen, but not being heard either. People just don't pay attention to their surroundings at all anymore. I realize that the car is low and some people might not see it as quickly to the side, but come on, you should be able to hear me. My wife and I swapped cars the other day so i could haul some stuff that I didn't want in the 8. As she took off down the road, I realized that I could hear her for at least a quarter mile. I know it's loud enough to be noticed. Chiefmg, with the magnaflow, yours isn't exactly whisper quiet. People just suck at driving.

It probably also has something to do with your cars being gray or silver. I've noticed when driving a friend's silver Cobalt that people tended to pull out in front of me and cut me off more often than when I'm driving the 8. Knock on wood, I rarely have a problem with other motorists not noticing me in the Mazda.

I'm hoping to get to the track this year, but will probably do a 3 day with OVRPCA or the kypca later in the year. Funds just aren't there just yet. $225 for a 1 day even is pretty pricey
