It's not too far away. What did you do today to get ready for ABF? Let's try to keep this running up to the event.

I polished the glass - no more waterspots!! Will be fixing the rear main seal soon so we can dyno without spitting oil everywhere.

Nah no rain allowed

Today CODEBLUE did more wet sanding on JR (the other 79) and I picked our dinner for the event, and mailed off all the Classy Chassis applications, and told the City of Wenatchee to have some sunshine waiting for us all.

Thought about getting a rear Mazda Badge, so I don't look trashy in the parade, thought about getting a new paint job, then remembered how poor I was. I looked at ******* also and just signed a 3 month lease on my new place, even closer to the AB action!

We had a paintless dent repair done on the volvo, pretty amazing, we had 10 dings taken out. I'm hitting up the wrecking yard tomorrow looking for a front fender and drivers doors, as those dents were to big to pop out. We also schedule up an appointment to get the window tinted. Less than 3 weeks to go. YIKES.

I wiped the dust off the little steel plate on top of the center iron. Also I mixed up a spray bottle of 1/2 simple green and 1/2 water. tomorrow I'll prolly tune up the spray bottle to make sure I get a good even mist.
