Thumbs up Re: What did you do to your Crossfire today?

I installed the 2 K&N air filters yesterday at 41,256 miles the stock air filters were so dirty I don't know my Crossfire was even running I thought it ran great but with the new K&N filters what a big change in performance.

First 70 degree day of the year (actually 74) and I have a personal unwritten rule that says the top can not come down for the first time each spring until it hits 70. So today the top did indeed come down.

My rule is 54% F and the top was down today. Ran along side a '72 MGB onI-70 for about 10 miles. His top was down also.
My Brother-in-law had one years ago. Neat little British roadster if your hobby is constant tinkering.


We both smiled and, with a wave, went our separate ways.

Looks good Greg! For what you saved by not getting those other crazy expensive Lexani wheels you can order another set of the Lorenzo wheels for your roadster! I thought the whole idea was to have "his & her" matching roadsters . . .

The preceding message was typed slowly and carefully using only my right index finger!

Well thank you sir! She still loves those Lexani wheels.. Just got wore down trying to make it happen.. LOL. And I'm not beyond taking her "hand me downs"..


Actually the "idea" was for me to get a roadster.. Fate made them twins.


Besides.. do you really see me adding butterfly badges to mine? LOL

Looked outside. Still rainy & wet. Dusted off my Crossie - the garage Queen - and am tapping my foot, waiting for sun so we can take a drive!

I thought the loose mat on the driver side looked a bit dirty and greyish, so I washed it in detergent and let it dry for three days.
It looks brand new now.

Took mine for another top down cruise since it was 66 and sunny today. March has been surprisingly nice and accommodating of late here in the Ohio Valley, hope it sticks around.

Changed the Oil and Filter and drained the Oil Catch Can
Installed a Mann Fleece Filter and 8 quarts of Mobil 1 OW40
Reset the FSS back to 7000

Then took it for a nice drive on the highway to a fellow Crossfire friends open house
She has a brand new place and owns a 2005 Graphite Grey Roadster
which now resides in her new 2 car garage


Very excited to be going to Crossfires Across America #6 - Ozark Mountain Region - June 15-18, 2015

New wheels, road force balancing, alignment, steering stabilizer, oil change... Blew two tires and damaged one wheel within 14 hours of getting that done. Lucky me

I hope you mean 14 hours PRIOR to getting this done and not 14 hours AFTER getting this done
