Washing cars is easy. I'm not too lazy to wash a car. but I do use brake dust treatment on my wheels.

just a spray treatment after you wash the car and dry the wheels. it makes it hard for brake dust to adhere to the wheels and makes cleaning them easier.

New starter is running strong, no FaelFlora noises.

LOL **** no.....Since my miata is slow right now I'm actually taking corners in it so I'm not such a noob. Yesterday I took a freeway onramp that was rated 45 at 46...That's right, I'm basically a pro now.

Next on the agenda is relocating everything to the trunk so the car has 40f/60r distro....Then datalog with markers and tape of course......What do you know about throttle response? That's right nothing....Be gone n00b

God I love this shop. I've used them a few times. Got two tires mounted & balanced and drove off the lot in under 10 minutes. no lie. they pulled my car up at 12:08 and I was on the road at 12:17.

and now i can get this failed sticker removed tomorrow.




Car is 70000 times smoother now. lol.
