This is a good place to coordinate mini mod days with the Hampton Roads S2Ki Mid-Atlantic crew chief - Tony (moparacker).

Post up here if you need help, so Tony can keep track of these things - and anyone who wants to help please post here too. I'll try to keep this first post updated.


Tony is keeping the second post of this thread as his schedule/calendar and I'll be cleaning things up as he requests.

First off, please don't whore in this thread.



General rules of the garage

-If there is something you need help with or just want me to do, post it. I will do some simple things as a friend, but something more involved might require a donation. This can be discussed before hand elsewhere.

-If you don't know where my house is, shoot me a PM.

-If you want beer, YOU have to bring it. Just don't get too crazy.

-There is a pool in the backyard. If you feel like slacking off, then take a dip. Suits are required for guys.



Now, on to the simple stuff.

What to bring with you:

Oil changes
- Oil
- Filter
- Drain plug crush washer

Anything involving brakes
- Brake clean
- Brake fluid (depends on what is being done)

I have drain pans, funnels, rags. BUT any fluids that are required, you need to bring!

I have 4 jack stands. I can't see there every being a need for more than two cars requiring them at the same time.

tony what fuel washers do we need?? Between you, dave and me, whoever gets to it first should just get all three of ours plus a couple spares.

We now have all 3 Hondata gaskets . . . . . .coolant isn't a problem although we also need some redline water wetter.

just my opinion. If you let me know I will just get 'em from joe. But I need a part number or good description.
