Jus' 'round ta' corna'

With the TGN coming up so quickly I've been spending the last few weeks getting ready. Cleaning and waxing my car. Cleaning my K & N Filter. Fixing my radio (now I get FM stations! ). I also put in the Tornado Fuel Saver that a buddy of mine gave me. I figure, what do I have to lose?

What have you guys been doing lately?

See everyone there!!!

The tornado can actually make you lose power, at least from what I've heard,as it is more a restriction than anything.

My car is getting a new tranny installed later this week.

then I need to wash and wax it.

Fixed leaks: radiator, intake manifold, fuel tank, valve cover.
Worked out bugs in headers and exhaust. (I hope)
Would like to finish polishing my rims, but I don't know...
Need to give it a good "once over" and detail it inside and out.
It's not going to be "perfect" this YEAR let alone next weekend.
Oh, well...

I've sunk a lot of $$$ getting my car mechanically "right" so the cosmetic stuff will have to wait! I don't think any amount of washing or waxing it will help at this point, especially since I live on a dirt road! Oh well, I'm going to meet the people and have fun, anyway! See ya there!
