I agree this weather sux. The only good thing about it is that it makes working the OT a little easier when you see it drizzling outside. Plus w/ my car down, it makes it easier to deal with. Otherwise, I'd be going insane.

I spent 8 hours waxing my car for the show the last sunny day before the rain. Now it is ABSOLUTELY FILTHY.

I rotated and washed the inside of my wheels and tires and cleanned up my wire mod mess in the pouring down rain the other day too because I don't have a garage big enough to jack the car up and give myself room to work around in.

I am still planning on going to the show. They have my 20 bucks and I have already gotten the day off from work so I am going come hell or high-water!

Might just have to do what I did last year. Bring a couple of towels and wipe the car down at the show. Now that I think about it, thats what I had to do the year before too. Well now its just tradition.

Sorry guys but I am right in the middle of a huge project. Have to build my Ark before I drown. It has to be big enough to fit the Camaro on so it might take me a while.

You're more than welcome to divert some of that my way. We've had a whopping 0.3" of rainfall this year. I just took these pics 5 min. ago from my back door.

Nice dirt ya got there. Did "Chem Dirt" do that for a good rate?

My yard is a kingdom of GREEN weeds and crabgrass that I'd be happy to send to you a little at a time if you like!
