Next step is a full on GridGuard perimeter but I don't want to spend that kind of money on this house.

What is that stuff? It can stay there 24/7 or needs to be put on when parked only? Little pests go under my plastic engine cover, so I removed the cover but they still go to the same spot on top of the engine.

It's just 3d printed sheets of spikes that I cut down to size. ABS to withstand the heat. I just leave it there.

Took the cover and trickle charger off the Boxster yesterday, adjusted the tire pressure and took the car out to the shop for a seasonal oil change and tech inspection. Club race and driver education is next weekend with Friday as a full-on advanced solo lapping, and the first driver education weekend of the season. Was nice to get back onto the road in a manual transmission. I may need new tires mid-season.

I miss that about BMW ownership.
Getting into your car in the morning, your heart rate rises, insert the key, get the cold sweats, and pray to Jesus, Allah, and Buddha that your car will start. And if it does, you let out a sigh of relief and pray again no check engine lights or error codes.
That, or it's just so frustrating, it sits in the shop awaiting diagnostics and parts from Germany.

Then.. you're like damn it's gonna be a good day today! Beautiful day, breeze isn't too cold, time to roll down the windows/use the sunroof and cruise - wait it got stuck.
