Debating on if I should do a supercharger oil change before I go. It's still on the original. Supposed to change at between 1500 and 2500 miles then every 7500 or something like that. But I'm not at the 1500 yet since install

Wait till after. And then just try and get supercharger and engine oil changes on the same schedule at like 5,000 miles.

Everything is set to go for tomorrow. Then monday it goes to another shop to try and balance the wheels again. If that doesn't work, I am wondering if the wheels themselves are not all that great. Are a "knockoff" version of the ZR1 wheels I think. I looked them up before but can't remember what ones they are exactly. I do know what ones I would get if these end up being the issue.

Not going today. Only in the 40s right now. Won't break 60 until it's almost closed for the day. Also only opening up for 1/8 mile today. I'll wait for warmer weather.

It's hard to beat topless motoring.
I think about all the things we could have done, all the miracles we could have achieved, if we were all just a little bit better than it turns out we are.

Got bored today. Plasti-dipped the wheels while I was getting the septic tank pumped.

I will see how I like it over the next month or so when I can get it out in the sun and everything. Only did a couple of coats as I don't plan on having it last long before I remove it. Just long enough to get a feel for it. If I like it I will prep/paint the wheel the right way.

I like the Chrome. You know you could do a silver flake accent as well on top of that black. You could mask it off as much as you like or do all. I did it to my ram years ago.
