so it's Friday. Not much going on with the P-car. I have to do oil changes in the DDs so I might as well change the oil in the P-car also. Then change shocks on the Envoy and detail the DDs too. Hopefully I can find some time to breath in there No shoots going on this weekend but I got some new gear I need to try before next weekend shoot.

Should leave some time to play with the P-car

Well, seeing as I got nowhere on my suspension project last weekend, try that again. Also have to start pulling the motor for a clutch, so car will be down for the count until it's done. Hopefully be back up in about 2 weeks.

It is going to be another Pcar weekend. I am buying a floor jack and jack stands. It is pretty exciting as I have never owned a floor jack and always have hated using stock scissor jacks. Then I am checking the brakes.

G Pipe install this weekend. Can't wait to irritate the neighbours. Maybe a wash and wax if the weather holds.

Test drove car today.
Discovered something is wrong with the AWD system.

I wanted to take a hammer and beat myself with it, but I couldnt build up the energy.

Good times...

Give the RSA a look-over after beating on it at Sears all last weekend. Been looking at it all week next to the yellow car. Nice to have it back from the garage at the track. Maybe I'll get motivated to license and insure it and drive it on the street once in awhile!

Going to get the "new" car up in the air and have some fun crawling around underneath. Going to take the undertray off - this is the first one I've ever seen. That will probably screw up my aerodynamics, though. I bought a card for my laptop to provide a serial port for the Scantool - I hope it works. Then we will see what shows up on the new C4. I will check the battery, etc. It seems to turn over a bit slow, hopefully just a ground cable at the battery or the starter needs cleaned up. My son borrowed my Motiv, so flushing the brakes will have to wait another week or two. Hmmmm, maybe I will have to just Drive It.

Since I am unemployed I washed and waxed my car today. Then went for a drive, tomorrow is supposed to be 50 degrees I am looking forward to it! Need to purchase some engine mounts in the near future.
