Nice snag onz

I think I'm just going to switch to the Motul RBF600 since I just put SuperBlue in Z ~2 months ago and I found a place in town that carries the Motul at a not-exorbitant price. It's more expensive that the ATE, but for the amount of fluid used and the frequency of flushes, it's negligible.

Racer Parts Wholesale has some.

Yep. Sounded fishy to me too so I called the man who would know. Joe at zspeed said it would be a temporary fix to the problem until the new clutch package I ordered from him comes in and I can do the work myself so I know its done right.

I hate stealerships. Labor is expensive as hell. I can rent a bay with a lift and a full garage of tools plus a mechanic on site to help for 5 dollars an hour on base.

Ok, that makes a lot more sense

A temp fix until you get your clutch sounds good. Smart move calling Joe

So I hope you are doing the work at the $5/hr rate and not the dealership. I'm doing a maintenance clutch fluid flush this weekend in my garage. I expect to spend about 10 min actually flushing the fluid, and 30+ min getting the car up and down four jack stands

I enjoy both. Kayaking can be very similar to a canoe on still water (I've done lots of fishing in both) or it can be a great rush in whitewater

I've never had the opportunity to do kayaking on any sort of serious rapids, but I think it would be awesome.

i'm fearful of tipping and not being able to either right myself or get out! Lol!

As long as you're not starting out in whitewater, you'll be fine. You'd be surprised how stable it can be when you get comfortable. A lot of times you can get in on dry land and then slide into the water. Your paddle can give you an amazing amount of leverage as well to keep from tipping. My experience was it was pretty easy to get out of the kayak if you go under, although I never went under except on purpose to practice the scenario.
