    Bertie and I went to cars & coffee this morning. Good turn out, lots of eye candy. Neat cars to see too.

    Then, BBQ for lunch. (Bertie had to stay outside.)

    Washed, then wax on...wax off.

    Sorry no dodojuice. I have some Griot's wax left. Trying to use that up.

    So I was playing with my torque pro app and found out it somehow measures or gives an estimate of h.p. and torque. I don't know where it gets it's information from, but I think the torque reading is a lie. My car is an '03 justa. The horse power seems plausible, though.

    Drove down to the gas station in Scooter to get lawn mower gas, no wash, no wax. Just mowed the lawn, time for a nap!

    Enjoy Sunday.....

    Enjoyed a great drive to the brewery with friends. Thanks Mark for the work and leading.
    Stopped by to see a friend that couldn't make it.
    Then washed all the bugs and bird poo off and polished the new mirror caps.

    Sadly, finance. The most boring job in the world.

    I tried to do my vacuum pump yesterday, but quickly realized that I did not have a long enough extension to reach the bottom two bolts on it. So I promptly stopped, put the intake back together and had a beer. Gotta get the right tool.

    I relocated my secondary fuel filter and rerouted the fuel lines under the bonnet of my Classic.

    Stopped by Best Motor Werks to have a burnt out turn signal bulb replaced and discuss a winter car.

    Good idea. I just noticed one of my highbeam hightlight bulbs (also daytime running light) was burnt out.

    Looking at it out my back window in frustration, as it and my just delivered new wheels and tires (still in boxes) sit in the rain. New GTSpec strut brace arriving today too. Hoping for better weather tomorrow.

    Ordered a resistor for the low speed fan and took my favorite navigator for a ride.[​IMG]

    Thanks, I think so too. I'm 45 minutes from the blue ridge parkway, three hours from the dragon (which I have never visited, but plan to soon) and three hours from the ocean. Not to mention, plenty of great back roads all around the area.
