Well the first 3 items on my to do list have been completed. I should have cleaned the inside of the wheels when I had them off but I was lazy. I am looking forward to vacuuming my car though. We won an $850 Dyson vacuum cleaner from Breakfast Television for entering a photo on Free For All Fridays 2 weeks ago. I have to thank my wife for that prize. She entered during one of Riley's naps.

Wouldn't a toilet brush (even new) risk scratching a painted wheel all to hell?
I use Eagle 1 Wax As U Dry on the wheels and microfibre cloths on mine.

I use a 3-M two-sided Scotch-brite pad for my rims ... the softer side for the outside finished area, and the more abrasive side for the inside of the rims.
Just slightly o/t ... after Watkins Glen I removed about a quarter pound of molten rubber stuck to the inside of each of my rims - not sure if it was from my tires or others, but it was awesome to see - scotch-brite pad took it right off lickety split.

So what time are we meeting on Saturday morning? And who is all meeting there? I am assuming that we are still meeting at Steeles and Rutherford. Correct?
Well I finally broke down and got a set of front tires for my car today. Just a set of cheepo's, because I am cheep. But the vibration in the front end is gone now. Shifted belt I guess?

Did the interior leather & plastics today and took a first stab at the engine bay.
Second stab comes as I'm installing my latest Steeda bling (battery clamp, fusebox cover, coolant tank cap, oil cap and brake fluid cap)
Geez they should be sponsoring the car by now :D

I am really looking forward to this. It should make me happy seeing that I lost my iTouch earlier this week. That was a real downer. :(
