I think I spy some AC lines in there.

Either way, I approve your S4000.

Ricciardo was at a small hole in the wall BBQ joint called "That boy good" by my house yesterday. I kind of fanned out, decided against the selfie. There's pics on their facebook if anyone cares. I'd link it, but I'm at work... Nothing special.

Re: The Official Formula 1 2016 Season Thread

Today I spent the day (after class) paying people to maintain my vehicles. In sum:

Civic oil change at Honda: $24.95 (with coupon)
CC Oil change at VW: $92.70 (with coupon)

Granted they used Castrol Syntec, replaced pollen filter and rotated my tires on the VW, but still. I'm too poor for this. Also VW spark plugs are ~$30/ea. YEOW.

Re: The Official Formula 1 2016 Season Thread

Not sure, but that would make sense as to why he was in Oceanside. Also the Mad Hueys have an office down the road in Carlsbad, I'd bet that's where he got the shoey thing from...

Did they try to upsell you on new wiper blades, coolant system flush, or nitrogen tire fill?

One look at my Civic, and you know would have the answer to your question:

My buddy back home got me for ~$53 for the set. Still steep, but stomachable. Turns out they were replaced at 60k (like they're supposed to be). So I can postpone that suffering til later/
