Default DFR 2015 Car Prep.

Just got finished prepping the car for DFR 2015. Checked brakes and swapped to the other set of RE-11a's. Of course checked all the fluids and the car is ready for some mountain roads. Everyone please be careful on your road trip to FV. Getting so close. Later BD

Need to wash and wax the car otherwise it's ready to go.
From now until it's time to leave for the Dragon the S will be under the watchful eye of Ticky (guess why he has that name) who adopted us about 15 years ago.

Never mind just got rained on yesterday. It looks like rain off and on there so I may bump the car wash down to the bottom of the list of things to do. Thinking about maybe getting high speed tire balancing done and alignment check
