Thanks to Claymore for a great run and to HypnoSweeper for his usual ex-
cellent radio duties!! The only problem I had was when we split up getting
back onto I-270 the westbound lanes were at a standstill for five miles, no
accident, just bad karma I guess. Hope to see everyone next Sat. at MoT.

It was great meeting and chatting with you, SRM08. I haven't seen the NightFire Red Mini before so it was nice to see it in person. Lookin' good.

Maybe it's because I request "No washy" .........I'm just......well.......In some ways I love having a warranty since I don't have to work on her, but then there's nothing like caring for her yourself. I would have said something about it but I thought it was just streaks from where they ran the water to check for leaks, when I washed her I found that it was in fact scratches.

I don't want to derail the thread so, enough, I'm over it and I'll hope things go better next time. MOT still treats you very well, DeWayne is great

Just dropped Emma off at MoT this morning to have them look at the "helicopter" noise from the engine. Looks like the flywheel may be the problem.

Can I tell you how bad traffic is on the Baltimore beltway?

UPDATE: It's the flywheel AND the clutch. Thank God for warranties.
