Just your normal numbers/class for right now. I'll be posting a page with color and font options and then you can choose if you want one with a border, solid one color, different color for class/number etc. If it's something I don't have listed, you can pass it by me and I'll see if I can do it or not.

 

I was just kidding about the peeing on stuff graphic. Maybe.

 

Steve I think i would be willing to help alleviate some of the shipping cots and getting a case also. When were you thinking of ordering it by?

 

March 1st or before. . . as soon as I feel comfortable I'm getting the best deal

 

We can shoot for the 21st.
Also, if you want, we can try out the compression tester to see how well your premixing is doing
Of course you know my take on that... if you waited too long to start, the damage could already be done.
But you never know...

 

I might be up for a case - I've never used it but at 106k miles it couldn't hurt!

 

Would be interesting to see compression numbers before you start and then take one after you've been running for a couple months.
If the numbers change dramatically... then you know that the seals and/or housing is worn.

 

Thats a great idea

 

Here is what the painted shrouds look like i didn't click it fully in because as you can see I need to clean those dirty exhaust tips. They are pretty close to the original plastic.

Wow, I must say you did a very nice job matching the factory plastic. Looks great!


and, i'm just going to post this picture, no particular reason. . . .

 

Was that an offer that Kristen will be cleaning more exhaust tips :D

 

works great on old faded yellowing headlights too!


Okay, for the people interested in the case of pre-mix. It's going to be around $75 bucks/case give or take a bit with shipping.

Let me know if still interested.

 

Yes i'm interested Steve. I only have 24k miles on the car so hopefully i won't be starting to late. Just let me know when you order by so I can get you the money.

 

I'm going to order this friday I think from mazdatrix.

Are we still planning a meet in feb sometime? The 19th? That works for me if everyone else is game.

 

im gonna be getting some polish called nuvite. used to use it on the jets and it did an amazing job for getting the oxidation off and putting a good shine on the leading edges.

 

Steve i'll get you the money next time i see you then? Or do you need me to try to find a way to get it to you sooner?

 

John- I just looked over at my Axxess paperweight and remembered that you were going to talk to your friend at the dealership about possible firmware updates to the radio HU.
Any luck with that?

 

Jon - Never was able to talk to Sandy. I'll try again today. It was like I was talking French to them though so I wouldn't hold my breath.

 

Back from an exhausting ski trip to Vermont. 0 degrees and windy on ice. Wow.

 

Fresh Powder!!!

Where did you go? I've only ever been to Killington in VT.

 

No powder at all. They had a rainstorm on the mountain 2 weeks ago, and it didn't snow AT ALL. Fresh ground ice.

Was at Stowe. Really loved the atmosphere. Just dumb luck with the weather. Alll this snow completely missed that area

 

wow, that is pretty lame. Sorry to hear.

 

Doc, how was the weather driving through these snowstorms to get there? Or did you fly?

 

Welcome to New England skiing. I grew up skiing on packed ice and it wasn't until going out west years later that I realized that wasn't normal.

Guess that's why they say that if you can ski New England you can ski anywhere.
