Title: Getting ready for 3MA10 - the Finnish way to do it
Post by: MarkoH on May 10, 2010, 05:49:43 PM
So, there is still 16 hours left until we need to hit the road for 3MA10.

- 15 minutes ago the wheel angles were adjusted
- 16 minutes ago I lost my nerves
- 1 hour ago the wheels & tires were balanced
- 1 hour and ten minutes ago I lost my nerves
- 2 hours ago the valve tappets were checked once again. Still some annoying noice coming from valve mechanism  >:( >:( >:(
- 2 hours and 5 minutes ago I lost my nerves
- 24 hours ago the braking system of the car trailer was fixed
- 24 hours and 2 minutes ago I lost my nerves
- 36 hours ago the wheel bearings of the car trailer were fixed
- 37 hours ago I lost my nerves
- and so on...

And because there is still plenty of time left, my Skoda decided to be insulted because of my late 100% focus to my Racing. Today I was coming back from work when the DSG gear box of my car started to make funny things. Tomorrow I need to visit the local Skoda dealer. Luckily they have promised me a spare car if there is a need for bigger repair.

And finally: Last two weeks I have tried to explain to my dear wife that NO, we are not going to move to Germany permanently. You really do not need all your clothes and make up's with you. There is some space limitations in the ferry...  ;D ;D ;D
