Engine
- Visual inspection (blown turbo)
- Check all fluid levels (on my garage floor)
- Check for leaks (again on my garage floor)
- Oil change (maybe that's why it's been leaking)
Brakes
- Inspect pads and rotors (cooked)
- Inspect brake lines (deep fry)
- Bleed or flush brakes (focked up my paint)
- Check fluid level (there isn't any)
- Check for firm pedal (stiff as a rock)
Tires
- Inspect wheels for damage (1 cracked 5zigen wheel)
- Inspect tires for wear and damage ( flat spots????)
- Check torque on all lug nuts ( 3 out of 5 isn't so bad)
- Check tire pressure ( doesn't hold tire pressure anymore)
Steering
- Wheel is tight and straight (sure and it comes right off)
- Minimal steering play (only when it's fully locked)
- Make sure the horn works ( my horn works, it's not there)
Seats
- Check seat bolts (zip ties!)
- Check belts and adjustment (no fat people)
General
- Check all lights (TYCs?)
- Wash the car ( not in 4 months)
- Clean the windows, inside and out (i like my paw prints)
- Empty the trunk ( I need to the noise so I know I'm wieght shifting)
- Remove maps and other loose objects ( I'll keep the sharp objects)

just to let you know driving on the track has nothing to do with driving in the canyon. a good canyon driver doesnt mean a good track driver
