Well, you're still faster I guess, but to the store and back? Hell Canadian
Tire and back eats up that much time for me, they are slow and a bit
distant. And they are usually confused "What did you say that was for
again?" (just pick any old VW, it'll probably be what they end up doing
anyway)

But a standardized tech procedure would be fun, they do an "engine tear
down" at the local bug show, Adam and I lost by a fraction of a second last
year, but second place wasn't so bad (still paid $$). It was fun, they have
a nice clean block to use though, so your hands stay clean. Which reminds
me, I was going to borrow someone's block for practice......for our cars, a
wire splicing contest may be more to the point....
