View Full Version : What you need to do before you drive this weekend

Check your car!!!!
When was the last time you changed your oil? Is there enough oil in the engine? is it black?
Check your coolant. Is it rusty? Do you overheat just idling? Any leaks?
Brake Fluid. Topped off? Good color? Good pedal feel?
ANY LEAKS AT ALL ON THE CAR. Oil? Coolant? Gear oil? Pineapple juice?
DO YOU HAVE ALL LUGNUTS ON YOUR WHEELS. I swear to god I'm going to punch someone in the face for this.
IS YOUR SEAT BOLTED DOWN WITH 4 BOLTS? Once again, I'll be punching faces.
Wheel bearings. Does you wheel still move around even when all of your lugs are tight? If so, don't even show up.
FUCKING BATTERY FUCKING TIEDOWN FUCKING FUCK! It's 2009, get with the program. NO FUCKING ZIPTIES!!!
Just a quick list. Have fun and BE SAFE!

oh...
i think for the next event... im giong to double check that...
my windows are clean and not loose for safety
clean my blinkers off so that drivesr know and and see clearly wher im turning for safety
make sure by break lights work so when max and i tandem he knows when to back the f off.
make sure my windshield wipers work so if smoke hes windshield i can still see and wipe it off for safety.
make sure i vaccum the inside so i have grip on the floor so i don't slip my feet and wreck for safety.
im gonna make surei lock my doors even run group so i don't fall out of car for saftey
im gonna get my mirrors laser lined up so they are PERFECT and I can see a full 360degree while driving car for safety.
i think thats all. i'll check in later if i get more tips for you newbs
