I'd weigh it for you to confirm but I'd rather not take apart the whole clutch assembly and have to keep track of all the parts.

Just a heads up for everyone, there is an Autocross tomorrow and a Test and Tune one on Sunday up at the Frederick Keys Stadium. Go to http://www.capitaldrivingclub.com if you are interested. The weather could be good, could be bad. This will likely keep entries limited and that means extra runs!

Also, the Mazda Sportscar Club of Washington DC (MSCW) is having and event at Bowie on the 1st. If anyone is going to this let me know so I can sign up for the same session as you. I prefer morning but am easily swayed. Link->http://www.mscw.com/de09/09sp.html

I'll be working on my TII today in Woodbridge if anyone is bored. I have a tent over the car so if it rains it will be fine. I'll buy you lunch if you decide make it out. Call or text me if you're interested- 571-282-9537.

Those of you at Autocross, Have fun! I'll be in for the season next year, hopefully.

Yeah, I found a pretty awesome place up in Takoma Park. It is an apartment complex full of hippies where EVERYTHING is recycled! Since my car is running off of E85, my car will fit in just fine. Oh, and it has a garage, but I cannot do any car work unless I go to a military base. However, my Batmobile is stuck in Philly at RT Tuning waiting for them to actually get it up and running. See my build-up thread for the sad details...

I'm working on my TII all day Saturday(tomorrow) if anyone wants to come down to Woodbridge.

Hurley, I've never done pads on a TL, but I might be able to give you a hand. What year is it, and does it have a manual or auto trans? Front and rear pads as well?

Ft. Hunt Park is a great location for photoshoots and has a nice crowd with some exotics...

On another note, MIR Imports vs. Domestics is Nov. 5-6 (Sat-Sun) Who is going?
