Mark, we've read on Lat-g how great 'X' rides and handles.

Any changes you're going to make to this car as far as the suspension tuning goes?

Well I had the a few red and blue "in stock" at home so I used them. All the new one under hood are black. Maybe Santa will bring me some new black ones.

I dip those pesky red or blue anodized fittings in DRANO CYRSTALS and WATER mixed up in a plastic bucket - only takes a very small amount to do one or two at a time... but you can only use CRYSTAL drano... it's sold in a small black can with a red plastic lid. About $3 for a can of it.

Dunk that fitting in there hanging off a piece of welding rod - swish it around and rinse it off in fresh water - and polish it right up.

If you make the solution too strong - it will fizz and boil and you better be quick on your dip! Also DO NOT PUT THIS CLOSE TO YOUR FACE either - the fumes are more than nasty! Make it too weak and it takes forever... after a couple of batches you'll get the hang of it.

EEEEEEEEHHHHHHHHHAAAAAAAAAAAA

Yes I added a panhard rod stiffiner and tow hooks on the axle while I had the welder out.

OK I'll buy some more black ones. AN fittings are more expensive than a meth habit. A bag always cost me $100. Then I have to go back in a few days and buy more........
