Really? I guess I will hear about it Friday night. You should follow Steve down the hill as he will most likely come by my house on the way.

I got snowed on up in Boot Jack today.

Oh, joy! Modding in the snow. I'm about 500' higher than School Road so my driveway must have been a ski slope.

I didn't know you knew where the brake pedal is located you use it so little. Your out of luck, I'm afraid, if you want to change it. I hate to ask how you found out about the ABS. Playing in the snow?

Hey now, one of those sway bars is yours. Besides you told me to since we have to take the coilovers off to change the tops anyway.

Working in the snow today was fun. I was in a t-shirt at 10am, and watching the clouds come over. It was snowing and the sun was out, so it stayed warm. Atleast until the sun went behind a big dark cloud and the wind came up.
Monday I put a couple of boards in your driveway. I was going to bring some plywood, but this house dosen't have any. Its better than it was anyway.

The last I looked, they were showing rain this weekend, or in your case, maybe snow.

By the way World One has a good connection for racing seats and rolbars.

I get the ABS alot. The JCW brakes are very sensitive to it... I kind of am inclined to think the techs did something to it to make it very sensitive... Would too much brake fluid cause this?

O, in this case, i was limit breaking from close to 100 mph into a corner i needed to be doing 35 for... Scared the **** out of me as the abs kicked in and the car got very sketchy. I was able to controll it, but needless to say i was a little fast and out of balance around that corner.... Its not like i was in danger, but i prefer to be a little more balanced when im in a corner....

Great! Now we have to fight over who gets which mods done this weekend. It should be fun freezing our ***s off. I what to switch your rear coilovers side to side to see if it's the springs or the car. That should take about 45 minutes plus b.s. and donuts, so say two hours. The drop links/swaybar links/end links should take about a half hour plus b.s. plus beer, so say one hour. I also want to look at your left front suspension to see if there is anything else that could be causing the different strut lenghts. Please bring your originals to compare. Time unknown, but it's past lunch so after a late lunch and more beer and a 10 minute install of the strut bar on my car, Saturday is toast. So if we all thaw out and are ready to get wet and freeze our butts off for another day, we can get to making Blake's lifespan a little shorter by adding more power to his MINI. I'm sure his parents wish they had never heard of MINIs. I should probably have him sign a waver. See all y'all Friday night.

Steve

I should be home by about 5:00 PM or maybe a little earlier depending on when I get out of the Bay Area. If Brad's around, I may go down the hill a little early and meet him at his home. Armando thinks he might be down from the Vacaville/Fairfield area and wants to hear my Milltek exhaust so I will be taking my car. We can drive down together or convoy in both cars. I'll e-mail you when I get home.
