"Here, at last, is the cure for texting while driving. The millions of deaths which occur every year due to the iPhone’s ability to stream the Kim K/Ray-J video in 4G could all be avoided, every last one of them, if the government issued everyone a Seventies 911 and made sure they always left the house five minutes later than they’d wanted to. It would help if it could be made to rain as well. Full attention on the road. Guaranteed." -Jack Baruth

Re-greasing this or tightening up that is one thing. You wouldn't believe how many calls we get from people who need brake pads, or a helmet, or whatever the Friday before an event weekend  hock:
Oh yeah I also have to swap to track pads and wheels, but thatll be at the track as well as changing rear diff fluid and tranny fluid. 
I try not to freak out, this one just came up on me quick. I just got the car back from the cage shop week and a half ago, had to do a test-run to make sure everything ran okay. Then everyday and night since then ive been working on it. Hence my facebook status" FML roll cage painting". OF which I will never do again. My first list was 42 items, its now down to 9. I was sick Sunday and it absolutely destroyed over 8 hours of car-work time that I had planned. argh!
I swear Kaan (and Justin), get your shits ready! and where the F is Navin and Goodspeed?  '
Also I checked the enty list, where is Maeng?

12313. Pick up Navin's seat mount.
Looks like you got more stuff done after I left - hope that radiator ducting does work!

Thanks so much for your help, that door would have been impossible to get on without 4 hands!!!
And was just messing with Justin. The ducting will work, the stock stuff uses insanely similiar plastics, I would like to make it more "pretty" but itll work for this event.

anyone die of a heat stroke?
no
but the idea of grilling saturday nights came up... instead of in the middle of the day, in the sun, with temps over 100 and humidity over 80%

Unacceptable. Your 240hp 3000lb M3 did not beat a thinly-veiled Daytona Prototype.
