Default I worked on the BLUE car today!

Yup yup. I painted the rear brake rotors and installed them....hmm.. Oh yeah I bolted one of the new wheels on...Looks nice. Lets see... Um yeah I put the new line lock in and bleed it. I think that was about it besides accedently knocking some dust off of it.

I guess I should have pic's....but I don't

You know.. I knocked a LS1 back with Steph's Slow car last night...and I KNOW if I spend three hours on it she will run an 11.5-11.9 no problem.

Damn Black Trans Am started the race I just finished it!

How about turning my blue car into an 11 second terror.

No wait, can't let the wife see that... I'm supposedly not going to mod the C4...

Keep the dust off. Someday we have to paint on that sucker. And I'm not talking about calipers...
Did you paint them Ryan's favorite shade?
