Yeah, you can register there, it just cost a few extra $.

Nice work Robert!

The corkscrew is awesome. I would love to do a DE at Leguna.

I'm watching the rolex series from vir right now, it is wet as a **** and looks sooo scetchy out there, no thanks.

 

Robert, I told you this before but you took a lot of pics at the most boring part of the track.

I hate you.

 

So between that painters tape and my own stupidity I ruined my headlights. This is kinda long, but has a good ending... So lastnight got home, unloaded the car but didn't pull in the garage as I wanted it to cool off. So I thought while I was there I would get the leftover gunk off my headlights from the tape. Grabbed the googone (cause it was sitting right there) and proceeded to use it with a towel.. Well, there's something in that adhesive that didn't like that. It completely eched into my headlight (I only effed up the pass side), the adhesive turned into an epoxy almost. It was the worst thing I've ever seen on a headlight, you wouldn't be able to see ish out of this thing at night.. I didn't get a picture of it but wish I had. I tried everything to get this crap off, rubbing alcohol, brake cleaner, gas, acetone, metal polish... anything I could think of but nothing worked. Not knowing what to do I went to the local grand sport auto, shop was closed, but so guys were doing some side work. Met a guy (maybe 28-30ish), he said only thing to do was sand and polish them and even then no guarantee's it would work (it was that bad). To clear them of liability, he gave me a bucket and said if I sanded, he would polish. So I got after it, took me about 45min, 800 then 1500, then 2000grit. Thankfully it all came out, even he was really surprised. Total cost, about $35, bought him a case of Yards Pale Ale.

The results





The driverside was kinda nasty to begin with, thankfully I didn't use the goo-gone on it, just rubbed the adhesive off with a dry towel (I kinda learned on the first one). I didn't spend as much time on it, so its still a tad yellow, better than it looked before though.

 

i use 3M clear bra on the head lights, so no need to use masking tapes. you can get a sheet of it on ebay and cut yourself or get precut one.

 

that would probably be a good idea, esp since they're in good shape right now.

 

Pete, reading your story had me thinking of that dude/noob with the black cayman that put electrical tape on the entire first half of his car. Then it baked in the sun all day long.

 

On my second session I got the dreaded "danger to manifold" warning.

 

yeah i tinted my headlights with smoked vinyl grillo if you didn't know.

 

my last night in Vegas boys- time to fight people and punch trannies in the boner.
