Began the process today as well. Full tank of gas, bottle of stabil, and tires set to 40psi.
All that's left is to give her a wash on Sunday when it's a tad warmer and put the car cover on. "sad face"

You guys and storing your cars before it snows! I still have to wash mine before I can cover it.
I'm trying to decide if I can drive it for another week (To the airport and back anyway). Since it got colder I've been getting the SES light. Then we get a warm day and I make a couple trips out and it goes off until another cold day.

I don't know if you saw but I waved at you guys last weekend on Hilton.

I'd offer up Uprev/Cipher to check the code but i only works on 350's.. sorry. I saw the forecast calling for dropping temps.. it is a real pain washing the car (by hand) when the temps get in the low 40s.. The week before Thanksgiving is a typical storage time for me.
I'm thinking of slapping a turbo in the 2.0 VW..
it's such a dog. j/k no way it's taking any more of my Z mod money. lol

I know I'm an occasional poster, but... my Z is going to bed soon too. Maybe I'll make the next meeting?
I'm hoping to possibly do Hotchkis sway bars this winter. I hear that's money well spent.
I have the money squirreled away for the bars, unless someone wants to swap their manual VLSD pumpkin for my auto VLSD one. It should be SCCA BSP & DCSCC TBSP happy. I'd have a nice ~6% torque improvement and general better AutoX gearing. 2nd would top out around 72 instead of the 75 that I'll never see between the cones.

I'm planning on picking it up as soon as I get back to Detroit... Matt and Kyle say it's good. :P
I intended to post these earlier but I forgot to pull 'em off Dad's Camera. I took some video with the GoPro I haven't looked at yet too. Here is what I was driving on my vacation at the end of September (click to enlarge) :

Oh no, I would have totally bought the CE if you posted this earlier. Too bad I opened my copy last night. I went to most local stores and no one had CE in stock.
