I just got back from Pacific Mall(Kennedy+Steeles). I bought some Blue Euro Lights to replace my high beams 
...
Anyways, while I was there i went to a model car store. They have a few model S2k's there. The colors I saw were silverstone, red, white and black. They were nice!

Trickle charging the battery for 24 hours...amazed how low it was, almost 50% discharged in a month.
Maybe if I could find a yellow 1:18 and 1:24 I'd be happier?

-Pump the pressure up on the tires to 40, roll the tires onto 4 patches of thick carpet & forget about it.
-Have you heard of a "smart charger"? Turns itself on & off as the battery needs. Can be found at a motorcycle shop. About a hundred bucks. Plug it in and forget about it.
-Do you have Superstores where you live? I got a Maisto 1:18 die cast yellow for Xmas. Superstore had a gazillion of these before Xmas. If you had one, you'll never forget about it.

Yes...an early Spring would be a god send. Like everyone else, I am experiencing terrible withdrawal from not having driven my S2000 since October. It was 10C here in Calgary today, and is expected to remain warm all week. I would take out the S2000 but the roads are covered in layer upon layer of dusty salt which will coat the entire car in about 5 mins. Not that that poses a problem, but it still is a little chilly to wash the car on the driveway after a drive.
Oh well..not long now boys...we're already 1 week into January

Hey do they still make that crap in a box called Dr No?

What kinda stuff you got on your garage floor anyway? And what's a rubber snake? I'm sure if I think about it long enough, I'd get it but my brains off duty right now.
Never heard of Dr No. What is it?

I hope you're right about the return of the nice weather. We'll have to go for blasts out Turner Valley/Bragg Creek way.

I have bags of warfarin, blocks of rat / mouse killer, the little glue boxes, and bowls of water. The rubber snakes are a trick I learned from a guy who actually stores cars for the winter. He gets rubber snakes puts them in the car, on the floor and in the engine bays...supposedly scares the rodents away. I had a couple of old rubber snakes from when I was a kid and heaved them on the floor. If anyone looks at it I'm sure they either think I'm nuts or too lazy to pick them up...pick one heh.

Everyone sounds as if they are getting a little stir crazy already, that or just extremelly bored on this particular weekend.
Thought I'd let you in on a little secret - the owner of a Honda dealership in the greater Toronto area seems to have taken a liking to me and has asked me to be a part of something he is planning for the spring/summer this year!! Next meeting is this month sometime.....I'll do my best to keep you posted.
Hope your Sunday evening is as eventful as mine seems to be going.......hehehe
