    Got a few questions. Ive read the thread a couple times and im curious.

    Are we cooking out before doing some runs ?

    Is it going to be an organized group doing runs or are we going at free will during the afternoon?

    you'll have a nice little run just getting up to the park for the cookout. We'll be making a few stops on the way to let everyone regroup, take a few pics, and maybe get a few last minute things at one of the gas stations up there. On one of the stops i'll elect one or two people to make a run up alone to "check out the scenary" ya now what i meannn?

Russell, and others try 129 again...i'm still debating on doing an actual route as a whole or letting a few "leaders" be tour guides and split up into groups. I can do either last minute so it's gonna depend on how many we have show up. I'd almost rather just do one big group and make a few loops and figure 8's...129, 180, 348, 75, back down 180 to 129 to 180 over to 60 down and back around up 129, etc...there are so many options and we have enough "veterans" in the group to make a decision then...

    Anyone think that a vid facing the front or the rear would be best? I have the hardware to mount a camcorder on the rear deck and I can face it either way...

    I think rear shots would be hot, meaning the camera in the rear.

    I guess it will mainly depend on where I'm at in the pack. If I'm toward the front, I'll face the camcorder rearwards!

    Eventually I'll try to get together a setup that goes front and rear so I won't have to worry about "which way do I point this thing!"!!!!!

    Speaking of things to do, I have to see if I can get my carbon fiber hood looking any more decent. The finish is oxidizing or something. I have some rubbing compound but I think it just needs a new coat of clear!

    Then I'll have the wash and wax thing to do. I've already done an oil change and checked other things (just did an emissions!).

    Just wish I had some sticky tires...

    I can help with that. My friend had the same problem. Clay bar the hood clean first, then use dish detergent soap to wash the hood off. Dish detergent cleans all oils and whatever waxes left. Get a cheap orbital buffer (anythign professional and you risk damaging whatever UV / Gelcoat on the hood. Once you have the orbital take some meguiars paint cleaner, which is basically a semiabrasive compund and use the buffer to rub it in the hood, moving around rapidly. The pad may become gunked up after the first coat or two. Throw the pad away or wash it clean and dry. After that apply a couple droplets of polish and either apply by hand or new pad on the buffer. Dont glob on the polish because a little goes a lot further than globs. You should start to see a nice finish, if not you might have to repeat the steps again. ONLY USE MICROFIBER towels to buff out whatever you apply, anything else and you risk swirls and scratching paint. After the polish step apply a thin coat of wax. You have to be careful using a wax on an uncleared CF hood.
