next Sunday 5/20/12 is the Mo-power Madness show again.

a few of you guys have gone to this show the last couple years. the last two years they have moved it every year... it used to be at the naperville north high school. now its in wheaton this year, it will be nice to be back on grass again (makes my car look lower, lol.). i should be there in the SRT8 Charger.

bump.

might bump this once a day till Sunday if you guys don't mind since it falls off the new posts page quick...

already started my all week after work project of getting the car ready. it had tons of swirls and oxidation on the paint from sitting in the garage all winter. already did zaino clay bar, chemical guys #2 swirl remover, and 1 coat of zaino z-aio polish. the paint already feels a million times better to the touch.

still have to do chemical guys green sealant, zaino z-2, zaino z-cs clear seal, and zaino z8 grand finale.

swirls all gone... this was just after the CG#2 swirl remover, before the first coat of Z-aio.

Still dont have the motor back for my truck or I would go. May cruise up anyway. Wanna see some different wheels on chargers so I can make up my mind. Thinking 22" viper reps in satin black with the red pin stripe. Happen to know if anyone has any 22" viper reps at this show usually?

jon sublime has em in 22's on his. he signed up as "going" on the local forum. you should bring the car out.

got a couple more odds and ends done today after work, gonna get back to the waxes and polishes on friday. today i put new brakes on and painted the brembos in fresh red. they get so hot when i'm racing the clear flaked off on every caliper to the point that they looked pink. just got to put the brembo logo's back on them tomorrow when the paint is fully dry.

trying EBC yellows this time for pads. i loved my reds but the yellows are supposed to be a better track pad and just as good on the street. i also added some titanium heat sink plates behind the pads to try to keep heat out of the fluid/caliper.

i got the factory rotors for a steal, 123 bux shipped to my door for 2 front centric slotted rotors. they must have goofed cause the company took the listing for the rotors down after i got them. lol.

first year with no Dak R/T's at the show... it was kinda sad. we used to get 10 trucks out to this show easy. oh well...

250 cars and only like 5 trucks there. one second gen dak, one srt-10 ram, a ram charger, 2012 drango r/t, and a little red express...

i got a "top 10" trophy, no idea what exact place as they didn't say.
