    Rotated the tires on my S. The R50 goes in on Friday for a new[er] CVT replacement and the power steering recall thingie [if needed].

    I hope they finally got around to putting in your own private parking spot with your name on it, right in front of service...:wink:

    Note from Sticky Fingers rep on the issues I heard about with these emblems:
    Hi Horst.
    Yes that is correct, When we started doing them we had an issue with the print which meant that it was not grabbing onto the badge as we hoped, We went through 2 or 3 different processes to tackle this problem and also spoke to automotive experts about it and took on board their advice.
    Im pleased to say the process we made yours in was the final process we did that was tested through extreme conditioning and it worked so yours should be fine, Obviously any problems with the print let me know and I will sort it out for you
    We stand by our products for a life time so we are always willing to help out

    I heard years ago that if a lady gasses out with pantyhose on it could blow her shoes off. Please confirm. I don't want to spread wild tails.

    Never fart while wearing coveralls. The neck hole is the only place for the gas to escape.

    I took my car to have the oil changed today. Fresh Amsoil change at a little over 3k miles.

    Fresh oil = clean and happy motor.

    My car looks great! I truly appreciate Dave's obsessive compulsive disorder when it comes to detailing my car. The best part of moving to Philly is being closer to Helix and Ainge!

    Wolfpack fan, huh?
    I just finished packing the Mini. Heading out in a few minutes to Asheville. If the stars align and the weather holds I might get out to the Dragon for a couple of runs. Just have to wait and see what my GF has planned. This'll be my longest run since all my suspension mods, so I'll see how they shake out too. Y'all have a nice weekend.

    It was probably clean before you washed it. :crazy:

    I drove my car to the UPS store to drop off a package. I stopped for beer on the way home. Then back to the garage (no carpet). Yep, another big day for my MINI. Yawn.

    My 16 Countryman is still in the body shop, they have escalated the repair to needing a new bonnet, we shall see. :(

    Drove the 11 around a bit to get the pup from Doggy Day care, will do a clean up/spiff with Hydro on Sunday when I get gas in the 11. :)

    Sadly I wait....

    I gave Jeeves/Bertie/Winston (undecided on name still) a Techron Complete gas treatment down the filler tube along with a full tank of premium. That is the gas treatment recommend, right?
