I should be there this week (17th) with my FD. Does anyone happen to know a local shop in Richmond where I can get an optima 51R battery? My battery didn't make it through winter and I need to replace it before heading out.

Thanks

I think advance auto carries them, maybe some of the other parts stores too.

I also think I saw some optima's in the Sear's tire shop the other day.

well this Friday was one of the few i've missed but my son had a freind staying over and I ain't letting 12 year olds have free reign in my house for hours.
Some good news this morning I was feeling motivated and got the rear plugs on the FD changed and she fired right up. Now I need to get the front ones - which I have NO idea how I'm going to get at.
I'll definitley be at the meetup on the 24th butmost likely in the FC still.

Looks like you won't be driving it for awhile

What are you rebuilding anyway? did it just blow the apex seal?

depends on what the last time you went was

there should be at least 1 of each gen

I'm guessing we'll see 2 FD's, 2 FC's, and a FB - that's what usually shows up
