Car is fine. This is the 3rd year i've had it, and the first time i've had any hint of trouble out of it.

It's probably because i started spending actual money on it.

No, it's because HIV takes awhile to incubate.

Meh. Front brakes are literally the only issue i'm having with it. I like the car, it's not going anywhere.

Hey, is your car ready for a track day next Sunday? Stop working on it and come to Putman (1010 motorsports event) to shake it down, that is what you have been working for these last 3 years!!

I don't think it'll be ready. Well... it will probably be ready. It's probably ready now, but i'm not happy with the brake situation, and i'd rather not commit to anything until i'm sure everything is ok. Already lost an entrance fee once this year due to part issues, don't really want to do that again.

If i have an easy week at work and have time to figure out everything to my satisfaction, i'll see if i can get on a wait list. Last i checked a couple weeks ago there wasn't anything open in Novice.

Things were done to this thing this weekend. Things should be done this week to this thing. Enjoy your irregularly-scheduled build update.

That's fine, with a mouf that big you can hold a few years' air supply.
