Well, finally got her cleaned up after last weekends 500 mile trip! A friend turned 40 and threw a party, me and Ulrica got into the car and headed off. I drove the 250 miles, a lot of it is 2 + 1 lanes meaning there are 2 lanes one way and 1 the other, divided by steel wires and changes about every mile. This means you have no choice but to stay in line on the one lane part and basically an all out race when you have two lanes, you dont want to be caught behind the big truck... Ulrica conplained about getting whiplash from me going in and especially OUT of boost as she thightend her abs on WOT, I couldn´t see why. Great party, wonderful pepole and really nice and warm weather, for all you southern pepole I can tell you that the sun sets at about 22.00 and that it never gets really dark, epic! We took the Maggie to the party and another friend had arrived earlier with his CL 500, after we arrived no one noticed it anymore, pretty much everyone went out at some point to have a look at the Maggie, great stuff! Sunday morning, had breakfast just before they started serving lunch at the hotel, took a 2 mile walk to get the car (nor Ulrica or I was in the condition to drive after 11 hours of eating and drinking...) drove her back to the hotel, checked out and sat down in the passenger seat, Ulrica behind the wheel. Shes a drives pretty fast but VERY smooth, cruising at 80 - 100, never getting into boost. Eventually she got in a situation on the 2 + 1 that she had to hammer it to get past a few trucks, so she did, in the corner of my eye I could see a BIG smile spreading over her face. She finnished the overtaking and got off the throttle, trying to whipe the smile from her face and said, "-Well, now I understand, this is sort of nice..." Now the only thing is I can´t use the car, she refuses do drive anything else!:crying: And there can´t be a bug left in all of Sweden, they are all chrushed by the front of my car, a real bit*h to clean out! Fredrik:king:
Haha, it took me about an hour just to clean the front, but worth every minute! I don´t keep it at your standards Jim, but I try every now and then. This weekend its the Power Big Meet and the whole family is going on saturday, the plan is to be early and set up a picknick by one of the entrances and just ogle the cars comming in. Check out www.bigmeet.com So friday will be buffday... Fredrik
Wife Tee and I were planning on taking one of the mags for a short ride today, but gave up when the temperature on our back deck reads 112.4!!! Just to blame hot out!
Sounds awesome Freddie...for quick wax/detail, check out http://www.fukkenwax.com/ Good shit...very easy to use, especially for a show or GTG once you get there. Doesn't last like regular wax, but is easy on easy off.
I have something similar, good you reminded me, will get it out! But my Maggie is no show car, its a GO car, its nice when it looks good but the main thing is that it runs! Will pull myself together and try and get some pics, not my strong side but I´ll try... Fredrik
