Default Fastest way to dry your s2k!!.....

Try getting yourself a leaf blower. Sounds crazy, but it works great. And it gets all the water out of the cracks that would normally spirt up on your windshield when you drive.

Takes like 5 minutes...and your car is completely air dried. Its kind of noisy though...make sure you do it in your garage with your garage door closed. I did it once and left the garage up. The neighbors looked at me kinda of funny.

Just a I wanted to share with everyone...

Yeap, I have used this methods for many years now. My neighbors think i'm crazy but the blower works best for the cracks and rear light assembly.

Taking it to 100mph works just as well and is a little more fun.

i used to use a blower to dry my car but its too much of a hassle. the miracle towel i have works great without the extra effort of getting an extension for the blower and the loud noise. but i do agree with the fact that it helps get water out of those hard to reach areas.

I use my air compressor and blow water out of the cracks. Works very well with high PSI.

Good idea. Just you the 'Spot Free Rinse" selection at the quarter wash and take it to 100. Genius.
