Actually, S2000s go to BSP too, and all this would give me just the excuse I need to start throwing more money at the car...


By purchasing new magnetic class letters? I'm just sayin' ...

So what if I was out in the 34 degree weather on Sunday washing my car?


Ahem....

Of course, I'm sure you took it to an approved car wash, or better yet, washed your car in Wake County. I may have gone too far in the other direction, not having washed any of my cars since October (and that was in Myrtle Beach). However, I still do laundry regularly. :)

I'd be happy to run in BSP. All it takes is for nobody else to show up in ESP (which happens too often) and for T&S to follow the bumping order (which hasn't happened in years). Of course, I like collecting the little magnets. They look cute on my refrigerator door.

Judging from your avitar, you've already made some pretty radical changes to it since the last event. :nana:

Since you asked, I didn't even unreel the hose and I didn't turn on a single faucet. I have the technology.

Thanks for the link Karl -- I have been looking for something like that. I just ordered a bottle!

I don't think that would work with our cars. :lol:

Imagine a blue Forester going around and around in circles on muddy snow in a field and you'll get the idea. 2 gallons were probably used on each wheel.

A thousand apologies for doubting your public spiritedness and dedication to conservation! (Now what do you use to clean the DOT salt from the undercarriage?)

Coin op car wash wand for the wheel wells actually, and whatever parts of the car I can get to without jacking it up. When the car's really dirty, I'm there anyway to knock the dirt off it before using the rinseless stuff.

Once the salt is all washed off the roads, if the water restrictions are still in effect, I'll go there some night with the racing jack and get the whole underside of the car.

It's an obsession, and I've come to accept this.

I'll be running BSP. However, I'll only be able to make 4-5 events in 08.
