skool is upon us. I cant believe the summer flew by so fast. I'm going to dorm instead of commute this year so the celi had to get stuffed in to the garage. dont worry though, I took care of her. First I spent SEVEN HOURS washing, clay barring, polishing, washing again, drying, and waxing the **** out of the paint one panel at a time. It was brutal. I dont think its possible for a surface to get cleaner than what I unleashed. Next I changed the oil with mobile 1 10-30 synthetic. Some will say that was a waste of money but I'm not going to let some cheap/old oil break down in my car over winter -_-. After that came the bottle of stable followed by a full tank of gas. Finally, I took the battery out and put on the car cover. As soon as my little brother swore to never, ever let any evil befall my car I was content.

i know what you feel man since im storing my car indoors at this time of the year for the last couple years, because of University also (which is 1100 km far from home). i never got problem storing the car so far, i usually just unplug the battery and put fuel stabilizer...no jack, no run...car starts like a charm in spring. This year im going to store it a little bit later since im getting my gt4 front painted.
