Pleeze xcuse me as I don't know how to clip text for reference.... 4Kcs window reg (HELP ITS COLD): In a recent issue of european car magazine there was a story on replacment of the window regulator with a less expensive aftermarket version that was supposedly better. If I hadn't given the issue away I'd tell you which one. Q Listers? Service writers on commission: Yes, it's true. Having worked for several dealers the service writer's job is to 'sell' work. Some do it with a conscience, and some do not. It pays to be very cautious around these folks! Particularly near the end of the month, when they are trying to inflate that upcoming bonus check. Track Days: Summit Point in WVa has open track days several times a year on Fridays, when real racers aren't using the facility. I think it costs under $150 for a full day of instruction and free driving, requiring only seatbelts and helmet. Also, a local go kart track rents its road course to car clubs for a surprisingly entertaining autocross like event. Twenty plus turns in an eighth mile...could be fun! Later....
