| Yeah its called locked in garage wax......
Yep that was freaking lame. I didn't do anything special for the car last year and I drove it every day. I just jumped at the chance to wash it anytime it was warm enough. But interested to see what others do in the winter. _________________ Crystal Speed never killed anyone, suddenly becoming stationary, that's what gets you.  |

| I do wax my car in the Fall even though it stays in the garage. I don't know the name of the wax offhand, but it is a carnauba wax and it wasn't cheap. _________________  Another quality sig by DartBoy. Nine out of ten dentists approve. |

| I'm still looking for a beater I don't want to drive mine this year. But driving anything else kinda sucks. _________________ Crystal Speed never killed anyone, suddenly becoming stationary, that's what gets you. |

| This was a good reminder. The way the weather is turning, I'm going to have to get after this. I wish I could do it on Saturday. _________________ Another quality sig by DartBoy. Nine out of ten dentists approve. |

| I am cleaning my really good Friday and then putting it in the garage until I have to leave Saturday for the wedding. Hopefully it will still be ok for the show Sunday. Can't look bad might scare Eric away from parking with us. _________________ Crystal Speed never killed anyone, suddenly becoming stationary, that's what gets you. |

| Friday's supposed to be shit. I'm hoping for late Saturday.
My heap will increase the odds of winning a trophy for every vehicle withing 50' of it. That's why I'm parking away from Brian, he has enough. _________________ Another quality sig by DartBoy. Nine out of ten dentists approve. |

| Well Saturday I have to spend the morning transferring myself into a girl so as much as I would rather work on the car I have little choice.
I already have two this year so I guess you need to park away from me also. _________________ Crystal Speed never killed anyone, suddenly becoming stationary, that's what gets you. |

| i use NXT tech wax 2.0 no matter what time of year it is. easy on, easy off, now white residue, and lasts the longest of over the shelf waxes.
if you want a better wax than that you will have to order the best of all off the internet. zano bros. nothing beats zano bros. but be prepared to spend a bit of money for it. that stuff is expensive.
and what show is Sunday? _________________  2006 black /SRT//8/12.521 @ 112.263 MPH (corrected time) 2nd place SRT8 shootout Great Lakes Dragway 2008 / 2nd place Maywood Park AutoX 2009http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CjQeby5cB1Q / http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v0So5e-GGXM |
