This may sound crazy but I went to my local waste transfer station - I pulled up when they weren't busy and walked over to the window and charmed the girls and asked them if I could roll over the scales to weigh my car. They said sure and then rolled on - got the number and rolled off. Funny thing was the reaction of the City guys back in the bin area and people dropping off garbage who look at me as if I'm an alien as I swing around them, swerving around pick up's and go back out. All I had to subtract was my own weight and take into account I had half a tank. Poor mans weigh scales...

Next up - trying to figure out how to do corner weights...

For normal people - lack of registration due to unpredictable weather

In my case - due to inability to offload tickets to see Bugs Bunny at the Symphony

hahahaha

So - see you Saturday!

Just picked up my new GTS last weekend. Had to let the TT go, too many clutch issues. Ny new baby is all shined up and ready to go. I replaced the side markers today, so that got fixed. Hope to make it this Saturday.

Got back from Vancouver at 5, washed the car at 6, and I'll be there tomorrow...still wearing winter tires though. Changing the pads and rotors this weekend and I'll get the car fully "summerized" then!

Just got in at 11:30 pm, and still managed to clean the car, within 40 minutes. Tomorrow am interior clean and vacuum, before heading out.
