yeah, it blew over real quick. Ran to Tflats and by the time we got back it was sunny out. Wind got crazy though and kept knocking over the antennas.

Finally hit 30 Miles on the ODO and dropped her off for Ceramic Coating. I was told to come and pick her up in 3 days : (

Finally put the STX bits (the legal ones) from the old car onto the new car.

Finally put the summer set on last weekend. Is it me or the Premacies are extremely loud? I think I had less tire noise on my Michelin winter tires. These things I am just driving through town and I can distinctly hear the tires.

That was the first thing I noticed too. They're not much quieter than my RT660s. It's really my biggest complaint about them. They offer more grip than people say, as long as you're smooth with your inputs.

Yea I am pretty nervous autocrossing them after reading all the negative reviews, but I figured since I am a noob probably will be a good learning experience.
But definitely was not expecting the noise, usually winter tires are the noisier ones

You'll be more than fine at your first autocross. The biggest challenge will be keeping track of where the course goes, which tires you're on is almost irrelevant.

I did couple of events last summer in a different car, so not a complete noob but definitely a lot to learn

Installed the new shift knob I ordered from Japan.

Wash and wax. After cleaning all the tar off the doors and rocker panels.

Did some work to the back end. I've had these overlays for a while, but I didn't want to put them on when it was cold. I really like it.

The red turn signals (Sticker Fab, in Red) were cut well, although they are a darker colour than the brake light lenses. I don't think it looks that bad (gives things a bit more depth in a way). The turn signals / hazards are still bright, and are a really nice red despite being yellow LEDs behind.

The reverse light tint vinyl (86 Speed) is great. I love how the reverse/fog assembly doesn't stick out so much anymore. And since I've got the extremely bright LEDs in the reverse lights, they still kick out enough light.
