Looks like we are going to have a delay on the way down.....

As you head up the big hill in TN...... I-75 is down to one lane!

Kathy got stuck in it today heading to TN... took her an extra 30 minutes to get thru the area....

Just thought I'd warn everyone!

Remember the time we got off 75, because of a close-down, and we drove for 12 hours to get to the Dragon ?????

that's different from the wsb extended tour back in '04?

45,000 mile service to be done this Friday at my dealership. Hopefully they don't say I need new pads and/or rotors because I want to swap those myself. Unfortunately, it'd be too close to WTD to order them and install. I'd have to go through the dealership. My wallet hurts just thinking about the possibility of it.
You don't need brakes, with only 45K on your car....
I figured I'd need pads in the near future at least?

I went there a month ago when I was in Cincy seeing a friend. It was great! I had a very tasty beer there, yep.



By the way, Columbus folks, wanna arrange some sort of caravan down to the... caravan? That two hour drive to Cincy can get awfully boring!

You don't even need "Pads" @ 45K......I just had my rotors changed, pads too....@ 62K.....( Was for cosmetic reasons, only ) rotors were still perfect. and more than 1/2 the life left on the pads...as well....If you feel comfortable having them looked at, please do...I was just trying to keep you from having the stealership, con you into new....for their benefit...( $$$$$$$ )

I started this thread in the Ohio forums: https://www.s2ki.com/s2000/topic/943...avan-to-cincy/

We should be leaving from my house around 2PM if you can make it.
