    Re: Brand New Makan-Last of the Season :(

    Excellent job Richy. I had the goldish copper color a couple months ago. The wheels were a bit finicky, but came out great. I'm not sure if I would ever want one of those, but pretty cool none the less

    You are a better man than I for washing in cold weather.

    Curious why you were concerned about the ceramic brakes on his other car?
    Getting chemicals into-into the carbon/Ceramic rotors can be a costly replacement.

    Wow! I struggle with our Winters down here, I haven't a clue how you actually survive Richy! Hats off to you . . . . or maybe just keep the hats on brrrrrr.

    Awesome job Richy!

    Thanks very much Aaryn! Yes, I definitely kept the hat on!!

    True, and with all the snow we've had already (early for us), it doesn't look like I'll be doing any washing outside like I was able to do several times last winter. Got spoiled!!

    I had "heard" that the 3401 was too aggressive for essence? Most were using rupes type. Any hints on 3401 use?
    Thanks very much Ron! I've had no issues with Essence in regards to the 3401. It's not like I'm using mf pads with it which is about the only thing I know that it doesn't play well with. I use typically either the Gloss pad or a yellow B/S pad that had been dampened and spun dry.

    The others were bang on for both accounts. Just use soap and water and they are very fragile if you clip one removing the wheel. The guides stop that from happening.

    I would be sick to my stomach if i ever cracked a very very expensive rotor.
    Amen to that brother, amen to that!! I'd have to work the whole season just to afford replacing one!

    I was really enjoying its curves. Especially in red! Thanks for taking the time to comment Billy, I appreciate it!
