The cars paint was starting to look little old so I decided to try to do something about it; like I tried with the truck, but less extreme (more on that once it looks better). So I went and bought the best Wal-Mart buffer money could get - it actually feels like its pretty good quality, I also got the other stuff - wax, clothes, extra buffer bonnets, etc. I am pretty happy with the results so far, I didn't pull it out of the garage yet to see how it looks in the sunlight.
This is what the roof (worst part) looked like - car was washed Saturday, so none of its dust.
And this is what it looked like after some buffing - Way better! I think it might need a little more, like I said, I haven't had it out in the day light yet.
I also gave it a try on the hood, but it didn't show a difference like the roof did. Probably because its in a lot better shape.
And that was how I spent this weekend.
This weekend I finally got to do something fun with the car again. Its been a real drag not having any autocross events or anything to go to. I had to start by driving down to San Bernardino (120 mi) to meet with the rest of the group. When I got to the meeting place, I was only 10 minutes early and the parking lot was empty. I sat and watched as a bunch of older cars drove by (apparently part of the Route 66 Cruise) and waited. Right about 10 am the next car drove up, both of us were surprised that we were the only two there - and so we waited. About 10 minutes later about a dozen more came around the corner. We talked for a bit to wait for any stragglers and then took off for Big Bear Lake. 
This was the route we took as far as I remember. Starting at B and ending at C (~100 mi). The other part is rom my entire drive (~340 mi). We went to the lake and hung out there for quite a while, the lodge we were at was having a BBQ and one of the members owns a timeshare there so we were able to get tickets. Some of the group rented boats to go out on the lake and the rest of us chatted and played in the rec room.
When we were done at the lodge we went down to the Alpine Slide (http://www.alpineslidebigbear.com/). I have to say it looked like a lot of fun and I'll have to try it next time. I think the original plan was to go back out the way we came, but that changed and we ended up making the big loop instead. 
Here is a picture that was took as we were coming out of the mountains. I am hoping that some of the others got some good pictures, most of mine didn't come out very well. Next weekend is off to San Diego for the speed fest.
