Don't try taking your max thru an automatic car wash with on sprints w/ sfc's installed

the damn guy working will run you over the track, bending the middle beam of your stage II sfc's, making your y-pipe rattle against the sfc whenever the engine is running, and costing you 50 bucks for meineke to heat the crossbar and bend it slightly downwards..

Once dropped I'd never try to go through those automatic carwashes. There are some that are called laser somthing, and they dont' use those bars, just lasers. Even without a drop I just use the $1.50 do it yourself pressure washer.

I doubt the car wash will give you anything, but you can try.

ehh.. more ****ed @ myself.. I knew the car wash was tight before the sfc's, thought it might make it.. not so much..


thankfully my f up didn't do anything more serious than a slight bend.. oh well, like the other guy said, self wash stations only from now on..
