Another forum I am on does this, its great for the little nothings not worthy of a new thread. Its a confidence booster for your WK to let it know even the little things are important... oil change, de-badging, painting bits and pieces, repairs, the fact that you finally got to drive it...

Ill start:

- considering I made all of 2.1 hrs for the 6.5 hrs I was at work, I pulled the grand in, pulled the front end off and rerouted my HID relay harnesses for my fogs and headlamps. When I initially installed them I was slamming them in with no time to worry about wire routing or ballast mounting.
-Checked all my fluids to make sure all was still good considering the open heart surgery done to her a couple months back, all checked out good other than what looks like a slight coolant leak from my radiator end tank.
-dusted her exterior and shined the tires (she got a bath last night but it sprinkled on the way home)
-Installed a steel skid plate!
-Saturday I pulled off my steering wheel to resolve my squeeking clockspring and clicking turn signal cancelor cam, In a moment of NON-thinking I spritzed the clockspring with some spray lube, good news... it is quiet... bad news, I had a "check electric brake system" message in the evic and the traction control light on following. Quickly hooking up the witech I found I had an "internal scm failure". 2 days of driving later it went off and hasnt come back (phew)

Ill do a professional pre-race stack up between justin and josh's rides....

Power= Josh by 100hp (5/10)
Weight= Josh by maybe 50 lbs (2/10)
Traction= Justin by a lot (7/10)
Areo= Justin by a good margin (6/10)
Drive line= Justin by a slight edge (3/10)

I think on launch Justin will have the advantage from the line. Better traction and weight transfer as well a better driveline will be key for the hole shot.

Josh will have the advantage in the top end of the track from his power advantage but with the srt's better areo will be a close run up top.

As it stands now, i think Josh will take it by 1.5 to 2 cars at the end of the run.

Hold up Jeff traction I may have to disagree on. Remember I have 3 limited slip differentials (my tc, and front and rear diffs), where as justin is all open. My tires even tho they are ats grip pretty well, if anything they'll just chirp a bit, but not spin, on a hard launch. To be honest I hookup pretty damn well. Also my gearing is probably gonna be better since my rev limit is 6800 I hit my next gear at a pretty good part of the power band.
On suspension justin has me no doubt.

ALMOST got into a major accident today. Was in 85 mph traffic and some idiot in an integra was coming down way too fast, and in my rear mirror I saw him directly between my lane and the car next to me. So I swerved hard to the side of my lane, close to the divider and he split lanes between me and the car next to me literally half an inch away from the body of my jeep. I have never seen a car come that close to me, scared the hell out of me. Absolute moron! You don't split lanes in a f'ing car!!!
