New Nitto NT-01's installed on the track wheels yesterday and swapped back to street wheels/tires. Today, replaced the spark plugs, both air filters, and fuel filter. Replaced the top microswitch (windows would lower on a big bump). Swapped in emergency front brake pads (one side was down to the metal, I don't use the sensors because they melt at the track). Vaccumed and washed. New brake pads and rotors next weekend.

Drove my 2000 'S' through Lake Lure and up to Black Mountain to visit a friend. Enjoyed the new Michelin Pilot Super Sports. Snapped this photo from phone driving home...little blurry since I was driving pretty fast.

Hooked up the battery tender, threw a few desiccant packs inside, and put the cover on. It's been put to bed for the Winter, its first ever outside of CA.

That's sad that's why I don't miss Wisconsin a whole lot. I took a drive, actually several this week. Today it was sunny and mid 50's which felt great with the top down. Next week it will be back to 80, not to gloat or anything I'm in Calgary right now though, not so nice, 17 degrees with light snow and fog.
