I drove up to downtown Delaware to get some tickets to see W tomorrow. On the way home I got onto 315 at 23 and had a clear road until about 1 mile north of Powell road. The sun was setting and it got cold pretty quick, but the heater compensated nicely. It was a "life is good" moment.

It is a shame this road has become a pimp for commuters and dump-trucks. It was a lot of fun.

Old 315 is our Ohio Dragon-san I too lement about my favorite road also and I'm 1/4 mile away from the north enterance.

Sunday morning around 7am is "my" time on 315 (if there is no rain)

Evil, I blame you for Andy's oil level problems. (ref your sig)

Andy, I thought it was slightly above your max line when we talked last night?

10-15 minutes should be enough to let the oil drain back down to the pan and allow you to get an accurate oil level reading.

Yeah, I think my oil level is low. I must've burned some at the track. Perhaps, one of your fockers can tell me whether my oil level is ok or not. I've waited 10min or so before checking the oil level after running the car for a good 30min. Oil level is slightly above LOW mark. Maybe I don't know what the heck I am looking at.

10 minis fine. You should have burned some from the amount of oil smoke you were puffing in front of me. If you are near the bottom of the XXXX's, you are a half to a full quart low. Just for the record, I only burned 1 to 2 x's worth of oil.

yeah when I checked it about 15min later, the oil level was close to LOW mark.
I need to pick up a case of Mobil 1 oil today.

Check your oil level fockers. Especially those of you who ran track last weekend.

If you let it sit overnight, the oil level tends to move up about one full X on the stick. If you are down near the low level, you'll definitely need to add some!
