Just got done dumping 25 qts of used fluids at two different auto parts stores, and there's at least another 15 qts to go. I'm thinking we could do this about 3 times a year. The wife goes shopping and I spend time in the garage, like they say, "it's a win-win for both."

I've got all my tools back in their rightful place, have a few extra drain/fill washers, and one extra special plastic golf ball stowed away for the rightful owner. That was the most S2000s at my house since I hosted the SoCal guys, the night before a Devil's Highway run in the early days. I had a great time seeing everyone, helping out where possible, and got dents (that'd been bugging me for years) in two vehicles fixed nice and smooth.

I actually spent more time shooting the breeze than working, just saying. The Steamie Wienies were a big hit with everybody and will be invited to every future Tech Day.

Thank you so much Mike for putting this on.

Thanks to Mike, Mike, and Nick for helping me do everything to my car. The dent guy was fantastic, and the hotdog cart was such a good idea.

It's events like this that make the S2000 community one of the best clubs out there.

PS: To the guys I was talking about heating up the leather in your car before cleaning and conditioning it. I did it last night.

From the 101 & 60 interchange I ran with the heater on full blast, and then the exit before Val Vista I ran with the extra super air button on. (I was sweating my ass off by the time I got home)

I pulled the car into the garage, let it run and just heat up the inside. The car was blasting hot air for the 45-60 or so minutes that I was working the seats and they came out fantastic. They feel and look better than they ever have before.

Its also worth noting that I microwaved my three bottles of chemicals and then dropped them in a bucket of really hot water until I was ready to use them.

PSS: Don't microwave them for more than 15-20 seconds at a time. The Zaino bottles don't really like it. >_< If I had more time and I wasn't letting my car idle I'd just float them in the hot water.

Oops, sorry. We leave a trail of toys and Cheerios everywhere we go.

As a CO, it's my duty to make PSAs so the community is aware of the dangers and risks involved.
