You haven't seen the creek running through my front yard.

The first time I took my car to a track day (this was my driver's school and my initial test drive), the car was overheating, spewing oil from 3 major leaks and misfiring pretty badly. Overheating fixed easily, spewing oil a major embarassment and the misfire a mystery. After what seemed like months on my back under the car, most of the oil leaks are resolved. I fixed the misfire accidentally when I adjusted the valve lash mid season. Suffice it to say, my lack of talent was exagerated by my mechanical issues.
I'm mostly worried about the sound police. I bit the bullet this morning and ordered a 10" supertrap. If I have to use it, my car will look like it has a reproductive organ hanging out the side. I'm finishing up some other power robbing exhaust system modifications and if I can get by without the Supertrap, I can return it and only be out the shipping costs.

Got my all season weathertech mats - $55 plus shipping for fronts only. Passenger side fits great, driver's side - eh - not so much. It's not long enough to cover all the floor up to the pedals unless you leave a big gap in the back towards the seat. I'm not sure I am going to keep them... for the money, I really expected GREAT coverage, not gaps of carpet showing.

With the rain we've been having, I have an area 160' x 100' in the front yard that is under water right now. Based on previous years like this, it will be well in to June before it dries up enough to cut it.
