Whew, I had two pages of reading to do this afternoon to play catch up here. Just got back from a hike up Lake Tahoe way.
Anyway..........first of all, congrats to the trophy winners, good job!
And Linda, man oh live, your car looks killer! I'm really excited to see all those mods in person in just a few days! What a slave driver you must be, having those young lads melting away in that heat. Ha, yeah I hear ya, like most of us, doing stuff like that is FUN and not considered work, eh?
You probably already have done this, but if not, use the softest spray setting on your garden hose attachment and gently spray away the dust accumulation in your engine bay. Wipe her down and you're ready for show time!!

Your CAI looks absolutely great.
